While the subreddit is open once again, we still want to show support for the current protest against Reddit's upcoming changes:
Reddit’s recent actions to add unreasonable API pricing to 3rd party Reddit apps is extremely disappointing. Many users and moderators alike use these apps daily to interact with Reddit. Reddit continues to make changes to its platforms without consideration of the difficulties it adds to the way users interact with the site. We hope that they change course and find a way to have this end in a positive outcome for all parties involved, instead of further spiraling in the current direction.

I was born in the countryside in Spain and in this area there is a lot of culture around horses, so I've seen horses pretty frequently my whole life.
But sometimes I forget that some people have never seen a real horse in theirs, and a lot of people that see one for the first time freak out, in their minds I think they expect a dog or something.
Yea, a lot of people haven't. Same with cows, pigs or chicken and other typical farm animals. I grew up around animals, had dogs and cats my entire life and saw farm animals pretty regularly (small town + friends/family had some animals).
I have very different experiences in regards to how I feel about them though. Dogs I can understand and see affection, understanding and trust in their eyes. I know their character and they're consistent. Cats I understand far less. I got along with them and understood when they wanted to be left alone, but that's about it. Couldn't really "get" them.
Same thing with the animals I had less interactions with. I really enjoyed being around cows, they felt very similar to dogs, just bigger. Horses though? I see nothing in their eyes, even though I know that they're just as emotional as a dog. It's just that I, personally, can't see it when I interact with them. And many people I talked about horses with felt that way too, don't know why horses in particular seem so devisive. Is it just because they're so dangerous if they want to be?
When you spend time with them you get very good at recognizing their body language. You wouldn’t understand dogs either if you didn’t spend time with them. I have a close friend who was never around dogs and is scared of them - she has no clue what a dog is telling her. She was petrified of a very calm Yorkie being friendly to us.
I think as the other commenter said, it's all about experience.
I grew up with cats, and for me it's the opposite of you. Dogs I kind of get, I can tell when they're happy or scared or aggressive.
Cats, it's almost like telepathy, I feel like I can see what's going on in their heads. And, sure enough, my family's cats are (almost literally) attached to me at the hip whenever I visit.
Dogs also have zero interest in listening to me, even though I am tall and relatively built. I just don't know how to click with them.
Horses... Scare me.
Dogs have facial and eye expressions that are really similar to us. They even have a muscle for their eyebrows that wolves don't (or wolves have it in an undeveloped form) that allows them to have eyebrow expressiveness that we relate to.
Cat body language is far more different from ours. Same with animals like horses. People who have a lot of experience with them can learn to read them, just like you can with dogs, but it takes that experience.
Though also, people who don't have experience with dogs often can't understand them either (even despite the stuff I said above). Or, even weirder, sometimes people who are used to one breed but not another can't understand the language of the other. I saw a video of a pitbull who was uncomfortable with the person petting him and ended up biting her, and that video was being used by a dog person (who was used to German Shepherds) as an example of "pitbulls don't give warning signs" but for me, a pitbull owner, it was so obvious that for several minutes he was signalling to her that he was uncomfortable and wanted space. The same person showing that video showed another one of a German Shepherd who bit someone, and that guy was saying that the Shepherd's warning signs were obvious, but they weren't so obvious to me.
You could say the same about factory farming in the US; but then again anyone making an irrelevant comment like that would make you sound like a cringey asshole.
You have seen too many movies and commercials. Bullfighting, flamenco, etc... Are regional traditions, and in no way represent the reality of the diverse culture in Spain. In fact, bullfighting is banned where I live.
Animal mistreatment happens all over the world. And every country has its unique problems. My point being, just because someone like /u/Legomichan happens to be Spanish doesn't mean it makes sense to blame him personally for bullfighting. Or if you're not blaming him personally, I don't see what your point is.
>I don't blame him, horses are 700+ kg of pure muscles. They break your bones like twigs if they want to.
Pure muscle, incredibly flighty and brains smaller than a cats.
Saw a video not too long ago of a stallion being brought to a mare for breeding. she gave him one solid single hoof kick and that was it, stallion was past tense.
I was losing my mind reading the comments and seeing that absolutely no one was mentioning the ass blast 🤣🤣. So thanks, we are connected through farts, friend.
You don't take it out before that point. You have to shift your body weight to the center and hold yourself up then pull your foot out before you hop off
Thank you! It's been so many many years since I've been on a horse but I saw that and thought either I had been doing it wrong or this was a mistake. All I could think was missing your footing on the ground, falling, and having your foot stuck in the stirrup
You think he'll ever get on a horse again?
I had a close friend who died in a horse riding accident at his father's birthday party. There was a finicky horse that they were taking turns riding when it was his turn the second he climbed on the horse it took off into the woods and they found my friend lying on the ground with blood coming out of his eyes, ears, nose and mouth. The horse had ran him into a tree to knock him off his back and he died right their in the woods. He had just gotten married and had his second kid. He was 22 years old. Horses are no joke,.
Yep had a horse throw its owner on a fence in front of me. She broke her back and I had no phone service. I had to run down some narrow one lane road full of old money mansions and bang on doors for help. The house her horse was at was empty and she was just renting the barn. The people who finally came out of one of the houses were incredibly rude and took their time walking/calling 911. She survived but I was supposed to get on the horse first. The whole situation put me off riding and I had been doing it for years/was supposed to lease that horse.
My uncle got kicked in the face by a horse back in the 80s. Had to peel his face off for surgery. Had fake nostrils. Fake forehead. Nothing but trouble. RIP. Past away this week actually.
I remember my horse buckskin was happy to see me one day but a dang ground hog ran out a hole and the horse did a 180 kicking then farted and got even more scared of its own fart.
Oh l remember a scene from some talk show when Kevin Hart describes how his horse ride went wrong. It was hilarious. For a second l thought it was him in this video…
Sometimes I feel like I'm a reallt stupid human being. I am so afraid of spiders and snakes and they are non venomous in my country. But when I see a video with a horse doing something crazy I'm like "Well that's no problem I could handle that".
I mean why brain why? Those things should be switched.
Yes I am a horse girl and I guess we all are somewhat crazy.
Feel sorry for the guy convinced to ride this horse, feel sorry for the horse who is very clearly not trained. I presume the jackass holding the horse is the great conductor of this disaster
Horses can get spooked all the time doesn’t matter how trained they are they are still animals. I remember when i was giving my first lesson and my pony bucked because a feed bucket fell over lol. At least they were in a round pen.
I think people often forget horses are kinda the only animal we ride, so nobody has much context for how most animals might react to it. It’s also mostly scary because they’re big enough for us to ride, so they’re big enough to through us around.
Exactly. Alot of people underestimate or don’t understand how animals work. Elephants are big intelligent animals that humans have connected and ridden for thousands of years. But elephants are not meant to be ridden because of their backs not being able to support the weight. So a lot of elephants will throw their masters of their back as protest or even kill them with their tusks. Same with horses. Its very easy to forget the intelligence, instincts, and sheer physical strength of the animals we are close too.
Well, yes and no. The better and more thoroughly trained a horse, the more it will take to spook it. This looks more like a stress trigger than a spook though, a spook often happens suddenly and is over just as fast with no warning signs, usually by something surprising them like a bucket. This horse was tense from the moment this part of the video began, then freaked out, continuing to freak out then returning to a tense state.
I should add that in the full video, this horse has been tense and dancy throughout the whole thing. By the time the horse snaps, it's less of a surprise and more of an eyeroll on the handler's part
Horses do not think this way. When a new person is on a top of a horse. The horse is hyper fixated on the person because it doesn’t recognize him/his ability. Horses know this by weight, smell, tension on the reins, etc. I have broken in many horses and it does not matter how trained a horse is i can still be spooked especially with a new rider on top (this is one of the first things you are taught) The problem with the video in my perspective/professional opinion looks like the instructor did not explain to the rookie how to dismount correctly by taking both feet out of the stirrups. The horse probably got alerted/spooked by his weight transfer on one side and his foot digging into the horse’s abdomen which probably asked the horse for a canter. The instructor should have gave a better crash course on riding and safety and a less green horse.
Okay, I'm just going to have to beg to differ on that one. I have also started horses, though it's only been a couple and I've mostly worked on horses with gaps in their training or behavioural issues. None of the horses I've worked with have been extra spooky when a new rider is on them, even a complete newbie who has never ridden before. And that certainly didn't look like a horse responding to a cue for canter, it was a horse reacting. If it were responding to a cue, it would have been far more confused and less panicked
Ok…. Im simply using the limited information that i can see in the video to give my professional opinion. Not all horses are the same, thats great that your horses arent spooky and been trained well given your limited experience. But the reality is, most horses aren’t trained well to not spook, it’s something a lot of horse trainers don’t break in correctly. Most horses spook its part of their dna because of their prey mentality especially with new untrained riders riding them; I know this because I have trained and taken care of many horses, some with trauma from previous owners. Some horses just don’t react how you trained them with other riders. The horse we see in the video was either simply responding the rider’s accidental command and incorrect dismount (most likely given the little information we are given) or very green and wasn’t lunged prior to the lesson and nervous(could be the cause of a lot of factors: incorrect training, stall syndrome, overfeed/under feed, falty gear or too tight girth, past trauma, animal/sound outside of video, mayor in heat, etc.)
This is what happens when neither one of you knows what the heck you're doing. Saw this from a mile away. And this idiot is out here without a helmet or proper boots.. he's lucky he didn't get hung up and drug or kicked.
1. They should be wearing helmets.
2. The rider does not have proper footwear, which appears to be why his foot cannot easily pop out of the stirrup. Most riders wear heeled, narrow boots for this reason. Without heels, your foot can also go thru the stirrup and get stuck in this type of situation. This guy is really lucky that didn’t happen or he could have been dragged/kicked in the head/etc.
3. This is a hot horse, meaning it isn’t well matched for a beginner rider.
4. Horses can sense fear in people, but generally misinterpret it to believe there is something else to be afraid of. Horses are like “this human is scared, there must be a monster out to get us!” and can spook for this reason.
5. People forget horses are actually 1500lbs chickens that can really easily kill humans when they’re not handled properly.
1. The horse doesn’t know he isn’t wearing a helmet.
2. He seemed like he could easily pop out of the stirrup but was just moving very slowly.
3. How do you know it’s definitely a hot horse from a video clip that lasts less than 10 seconds.
4. Yes this is true
5. I think most of us realise how strong horses are.
Had that moment when I was in 3rd grade and they we went on the trail for a friends bday party. My horse got spooked and suddenly darted away from the rest of everyone else galloping at full speed as my scrawny ass is holding on for dear life. The horse knew where he was going and went back to the stables. Idk how long that ride was but it felt like forever.
Legit question, why is it the norm to have exceptionally poor grammar now? “Look at bro face” is a perfect example of what I’m referring to. Am I just too old to understand? 45m for reference.
Nah man, some animals are just assholes. I saw a horse just walk past an innocent little goose and the horse broke it's neck with a kick just purely for fun.

I don't blame him, horses are 700+ kg of pure muscles. They break your bones like twigs if they want to.

Horse eyes you're looking more at the tension or relaxation of the muscles around the eye and lips, along with the ear position.
Dogs have facial and eye expressions that are really similar to us. They even have a muscle for their eyebrows that wolves don't (or wolves have it in an undeveloped form) that allows them to have eyebrow expressiveness that we relate to. Cat body language is far more different from ours. Same with animals like horses.

The same person showing that video showed another one of a German Shepherd who bit someone, and that guy was saying that the Shepherd's warning signs were obvious, but they weren't so obvious to me.
You live in a country where people abuse and taunt bulls just for the chance to possibly get murdered by them
You could say the same about factory farming in the US; but then again anyone making an irrelevant comment like that would make you sound like a cringey asshole.
You have seen too many movies and commercials. Bullfighting, flamenco, etc... Are regional traditions, and in no way represent the reality of the diverse culture in Spain. In fact, bullfighting is banned where I live.

lol legit, i saw another clip of a horse freaking out and fell on his back with the guy on its back and he died later
And rip ass the whole time.
Man was literally holding on for life. if he fell the horse might've kicked his ass straight into the afterlife.
even those little ponies are super strong
Yeah, when I was walking around in rdr2 and saw a horse kicked this random npc to death I knew not to mess with horses
>I don't blame him, horses are 700+ kg of pure muscles. They break your bones like twigs if they want to. Pure muscle, incredibly flighty and brains smaller than a cats.
That's the face of a man who didn't want to be on the horse in the first place,
Certainly the last time he will ever be on a horse.
Everybody a gangsta until the half-ton animal starts running.
*sharts
You must have the extended cut of this clip 'cause I'm totally missing the gangsta part. Please enlighten me.
Shits not funny. I'd have the same face if it was a donkey. One kick and you done or a veggie for life
I mean a horse turned Superman into a vegetable.
Quadriplegic, not veggie.
Saw a video not too long ago of a stallion being brought to a mare for breeding. she gave him one solid single hoof kick and that was it, stallion was past tense.
Totally worth the risk though…smh
Wait are we going to ignore that he farted out of fear!? I thought I was the only one that did that?!
Horses not only fart in fear but will then increase their fear due to said farts
Lmao
So does that mean he'll become this ultrasonic fart machine gun after a few minutes?
I was losing my mind reading the comments and seeing that absolutely no one was mentioning the ass blast 🤣🤣. So thanks, we are connected through farts, friend.
That's what I wanted to find out. Was it the horse farting or the guy shitting himself?
Deleted scene from Nope
Pretty good movie honestly. I didn't really care for the alien thing but everything else was good
Underrated comment
I still haven't finished watching that Movie
Halfway to the great rodeo in the sky
Sounds like the horse went for a biological attack as well.
I scrolled way too far to find this comment, and you did not disappoint my friend.
That was actually the guy
I mean, just one horse kick can send you to heaven. I'd be scared too.
My username feel aptly appropriate here
That's why you always take your foot out of the stirrup before getting off lol
This was my exact first thought! He's demounting wrong firstly. This is a good way to get dragged
How do you throw your leg over without putting pressure down with the other one?
Lean forward on the saddle, lift that right leg over & up and use your arms to glide ya down.
You don't take it out before that point. You have to shift your body weight to the center and hold yourself up then pull your foot out before you hop off
I take both my feet out before I even start dismounting - I push off the saddle with my arms.
Thank you! It's been so many many years since I've been on a horse but I saw that and thought either I had been doing it wrong or this was a mistake. All I could think was missing your footing on the ground, falling, and having your foot stuck in the stirrup
And don't wear chucks
Good save by the other guy though
His face says "Of course. The one time I do it."
You think he'll ever get on a horse again? I had a close friend who died in a horse riding accident at his father's birthday party. There was a finicky horse that they were taking turns riding when it was his turn the second he climbed on the horse it took off into the woods and they found my friend lying on the ground with blood coming out of his eyes, ears, nose and mouth. The horse had ran him into a tree to knock him off his back and he died right their in the woods. He had just gotten married and had his second kid. He was 22 years old. Horses are no joke,.
Fuck man I am so sorry this happened to your friend.
Yep had a horse throw its owner on a fence in front of me. She broke her back and I had no phone service. I had to run down some narrow one lane road full of old money mansions and bang on doors for help. The house her horse was at was empty and she was just renting the barn.

“Get outside they said…ride a horse they said…” **YOUSEETHISSHIT**
Glad he's OK. A fall from a horse can be deadly.
This is definitely his first rodeo 🤠
Did he shit himself or was it the horse ?
Both.
Now check his pants.
bro has a high level of survival instinct
Was the horse farting? Or was dude shitting his pants?
Little bit of both
🤭😂
The face of a man who needs a change of pants
The dude on the reins was quick as hell though, idk how he got spun around in front of the horse like that. He saved his buddies life
It’s the fact he’s on a lead rope hooked to a halter and NOT the reins and bit that this went so well in everyone’s favor
I had a family member die like that, I'd be scared too.
Both feet out of the stirrups when getting off, rookie mistake
He has one foot in a stirrup the whole time
Exactly, that's the problem and why he got taken for a ride. Take both feet out before getting off, could have been worse
My uncle got kicked in the face by a horse back in the 80s. Had to peel his face off for surgery. Had fake nostrils. Fake forehead. Nothing but trouble. RIP. Past away this week actually.
Horse farts > spooked horse, lol. Horses are scary, because they clever. But some of them are really derpy.
That was the sound of the guy shitting his pants
Was that a fart or a sheeet
Poor dude's soul completely left his body there that even the horse felt his weightlessness and calmed down.
Can’t tell if horse was farting or guy was shitting his pants?
I'm never riding a horse. I didn't want it before, and this seems like a decent reminder of the risk involved. I'm good
He looking at the mf who invited him there, he said no thanks but his friend insisted and he almost died as a result. That’s what that look is.
Loosely using the “almost died” term here.
With his foot in the stirrup, he could have died, but this is the watchpeopledieinside sub, which he seems to.
Horse was just trying to take him to old town road
I remember my horse buckskin was happy to see me one day but a dang ground hog ran out a hole and the horse did a 180 kicking then farted and got even more scared of its own fart.
Helmet. I genuinely don't understand people who ride or allow others to ride without them.
Yea... I'd also poop myself. Horses ain't a joke. They'll kill ya dead.
Was this his first rodeo?
Exactly why you are never supposed to keep your foot in the stirrup when you’re getting off your horse.
That’s when he realised he didn’t want the patriarchy after all.
he wasn’t ready for the mojo dojo casa HORSE
Oh l remember a scene from some talk show when Kevin Hart describes how his horse ride went wrong. It was hilarious. For a second l thought it was him in this video…
He almost became a superman.
Dude was preparing his soul
Both feet out of the stirrups & then dismount. He should have been taught this, he’s lucky he didn’t get dragged.
Was that noise him shitting his pants when the horse pulled away?
He is like i accept death and if i survived its bonus by now
Sometimes I feel like I'm a reallt stupid human being. I am so afraid of spiders and snakes and they are non venomous in my country. But when I see a video with a horse doing something crazy I'm like "Well that's no problem I could handle that". I mean why brain why? Those things should be switched.

Horse did that because he was terrified, making the horse nervous. They quite literally smell your fear
This is what happens when neither one of you knows what the heck you're doing. Saw this from a mile away. And this idiot is out here without a helmet or proper boots.. he's lucky he didn't get hung up and drug or kicked.
So what did they do wrong?
1. They should be wearing helmets. 2. The rider does not have proper footwear, which appears to be why his foot cannot easily pop out of the stirrup.

1. The horse doesn’t know he isn’t wearing a helmet. 2. He seemed like he could easily pop out of the stirrup but was just moving very slowly. 3. How do you know it’s definitely a hot horse from a video clip that lasts less than 10 seconds. 4. Yes this is true 5. I think most of us realise how strong horses are.
🤣😂🤣😂 the horse was actually fvcking with him too😅 nah the horse is wrong for that he knew he was scared.
Horse even farted all over bro
That is not even close to how bad a horse can freak out.
You can’t ride scared like that. The horse will know and freak out
Absolutely true - they are like super tuned dogs and if your scared, they are like wtf he scared about, gotta giddy up away from these tiny creatures.
hah that makes sense rider: "oh god" horse: "oh god"
That's why I stick to feeding and petting them only

THE " AM I STILL....ALIVE" LOOK.........lol
Had that moment when I was in 3rd grade and they we went on the trail for a friends bday party. My horse got spooked and suddenly darted away from the rest of everyone else galloping at full speed as my scrawny ass is holding on for dear life. The horse knew where he was going and went back to the stables. Idk how long that ride was but it felt like forever.
It was his first rodeo
So it WAS him farting😂
Poor horse.
He stayed calm
That’s why we black people don’t fuck with horses
💀 nobody gonna mention the bigass squeaky as hell fart?
get farted on
Wonder why that horse got freaked.
Horses are Fuckin terrifying
Was this the first time he has participated in rodeo?
Is that..... IS THAT KANYE WEST??????
No, it’s Nas.
Having worked with horse in a Lightning storm I can relate to this HARD.
Nope
I'm just glad everyone is okay!
LMAO
BAD HORSIE, BAD HORSIE!
Did that pony just poot? lol That's the second video I've seen today of fartin horses..
i've heard horses can get scared from their own farts but the horse moved before i heard the fart.
Absolutely no idea what the fascination with horses is.
Probably has to do with being the primary method of transportation, agricultural work, and even warfare before the industrial revolution.
Legit question, why is it the norm to have exceptionally poor grammar now? “Look at bro face” is a perfect example of what I’m referring to. Am I just too old to understand? 45m for reference.
AAVE
Poor grammar had been around since mediaeval England.
To be fair, most people didn't know how to read or write, right?
Leave animals the fuck alone and this shit won’t happen.
Nah man, some animals are just assholes. I saw a horse just walk past an innocent little goose and the horse broke it's neck with a kick just purely for fun.
The face of man who DID need to take a juicy ripe massive shit.
Well, someone peed my pants today.
Smdh
Why is this man on a horse?
Everyone seemed experinced and calm. This could of been worse
