Asked for it...
...and got it.
He actually starts in on the horse before it does anything wrong at all...

Not "Angry" horse.
This was captioned "angry horse."
That's not angry, that's begging for his supper (which he clearly needs, I could play xylophone with those ribs).

Aww...
...poor bunny. But interesting reaction from the horses, especially the foal. Horses are quite capable of cross-species concern and bonding.

Horses, horses, everywhere...
let's go to the fair (Thought I'd share a neat video of a traditional Irish horse fair).
Not sure why it has a country soundtrack. Wrong continent, people ;).

Please, please...
...check your tires.
That pony is amazing. That could have been a terrible, terrible accident.

Oh dear...
...let's have our draft horse tow our toboggan. Great idea, right?
How about...letting go? Also, how about a nice gentle whoooaah not panicked yelling? :P.

Get out...
...of your horse's face. About a minute in, the horse with the star.
Saddlebred people really need to learn how to use the full bridle correctly. I mean, not all of them are doing it wrong, but...

A comedy of...
This is at the Lexington Junior League and not one person remembered that the more you chase a horse the faster it runs.
I'm assuming that the horse's rider fell off while warming up and from his attitude at the start he was looking for his trailer, which is usually the destination of horses that get loose at a show - but as things go on, it's very clear that this horse is not, remotely, scared - but thinks everyone chasing him is a great game. Eventually he gets bored and lets them catch him.

Oops...
...falling off on a silly little buck. (Although the rest is impressive, I'd prefer if the rider ditched the tie-down, but this rider is legally blind with extremely limited vision and jumping anyway!)

Another bad parade situation.
The video doesn't show what sets the buggy horses off in the first place, but once you've jacknifed a cart like that...
Nicely handled.

This poor pony...
...if your feet are touching the ground on either side, you probably shouldn't be trying to ride that horse. Just saying.

Insanity...
Some really crappy riding here - people without full control over their horses (some good riding too). At 1:48 the real insanity starts...
Seriously, if your horse isn't bombproof, it should not be in a parade, and if you ride like that you should not be in a parade... (Yes, I realize even bombproof horses freak out on occasion, but...)
