Random information on the term “dead-heat”:
A dead heat is a rare situation in various racing sports in which the performances of competitors are judged to be so close that no difference between them can be resolved. The result is declared a tie and the competitors are awarded a joint ranking. Dead heats can occur in both head-to-head races and competitions where competitors race sequentially and are ranked by finishing time.
Photo finishes have been a long-standing method of resolving outcomes too ambiguous to be distinguished by the naked eye. Improvements in technology, including digital super-slow motion replay and pressure-sensitive digital timers, have increased precision in resolving dead heats. Consequently, dead heats are declared less often than they once were.
The Oxford English Dictionary attributes the term to horse racing. Meets formerly had the same horses run several “heats” in a day, with victors being decided by the total number of wins. A heat which had no clear single winner was discounted from these tallies and was therefore “dead”.
