Fathoms

A fathom is a unit of length in the imperial and the U.S. customary systems equal to 72 inches (1,828.8000 mm), used especially for measuring the depth of water. The Atlantic Ocean at its deepest point is believed to be 4,580 fathoms deep.

Hands

The hand is a unit of measurement of length standardized to 4 in (101.6 mm). It is used to measure the height of horses in many English-speaking countries, including Australia, Canada, the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. It was originally based on the breadth of a human hand. The average shire horse is 16 to 17 hands tall and can even reach up to 18 hands.
