A drum was hit at 75 beats per minute to help the roughly 40-minute procession stay on pace to arrive at Westminster Hall at exactly 3 p.m.
"They timed it using a drum which beats 75 beats per minute, which enabled them to arrive at 3 p.m.," Foreman said."The time of 3 p.m. wasn't itself significant, but leaving at 2:22 was the kicker.
" "The horses required incredible training to be able to walk that slowly," Foreman said."It's not a natural gait for a horse, let alone a human being. So that symbolized the extraordinariness of the occasion. Everyone is doing something different."
