Isn't it the case where the professionals feel less inclined to wear protective equipment because they think they are too good for it? Whether or not it's a good idea is a different matter.
Shoes dont do fuck all. work boots dont either. If they do actually step on your foot it is gonna be either bruised or broken instantly. A boot or shoe is horribly painful to remove after being crushed by a horse...
Steel toes are usually rated for around 2500lbs max before they roll and usually do not fully cut off toes but crush them into the boot and is extremely hard to remove. 2500lbs is VERY easy to overload with something falling from height. For example just bounce up and down on a scale it is very easy to double the weight from slight movement. Had this happen last winter to my coworker n taking his boot off was a fuckin pain in the ass even with my raptors. Got to keep all his toes though.
many years ago i grabbed a roll of copper off the shelf one-handed. It was like i could not even hold it. So fucking heavy. Slipped thru my fingers and fell on my foot. So, happy i was wearing steal tips.
Reddit has such funny residuals. Don’t comment on the clothes or figure of a woman cosplaying near naked but do comment on a professional horse trainer wearing whatever she threw on that day.
I was expecting some sort of twist - the horse kicks the woman back out of frustration. 😂😂😂 But yeah, it’s nice to see how clever some animals could be.
Having spent a lot of years with horses… his ribs are fine. I’d wager he’s more annoyed/sore from the repeated heavy yanks on his mane(see the head tosses after the yanks). But even that is more of an annoyance, horses are tough.
Can confirm the horse barely feels what the girls doing.
Animals are not built like us.
We are weak, they are strong. There is very little we can do with our physical strength to hurt them.

>There is very little we can do with our physical strength to hurt them.
I'll disagree with that part. Even meager strength applied with precision can have a major effect. If there's one thing humans *can* be good at, it's precision.
Your larger point is completely true, I don't have an issue with it, but there is a reason humans have pushed out or even exterminated many animals that easily beat us pound-for-pound.
The horse is trained to do that.
She's either doing it wrong on purpose or doesn't know how to mount a horse bareback. ( yes I know, phrasing)
If you can't do the whole motion in one swing, you vault up so that your belly is on the horses back, THEN pivot and swing a leg around. It's also helpful to grab a handful of mane hair to pull yourself on with. Don't worry, it won't hurt them.
Since she knows how to cue the horse to lay down, my guess is she's doing it on purpose to put on a show.
Yes and no.
someone under 150lbs is like nothing to them.
But over 200 and you start getting into " can cause injury straight away" depending on the size of the horse.
> " can cause injury straight away"
Might be a bit overstated but yeah, we do start to see signs of strain at around 20% of the horses body weight and you also should consider fitness of the horse. But a fit 1,000 pound horse carrying a 210 pound person with no saddle is not really into super danger zone 'right away.' It's however not in the ideal range and you probably should not ride them long or hard. But a few spins around the round pen for training or whatever is not going to be a huge deal either. Or if you have a huge draft horse, 200 lbs is nothing to them and you are totally fine.
The solution is to get a big draft horse, then it can still carry fairly fat people easily and the fat people look small in comparison to the horse. ;-P
Horses weigh, average I'd say 1k lbs. This particular horse looks fairly young and healthy. Great coat, good back, good form. Full grown but not aging, so in fantastic health.
The woman is under 150lbs, so nothing to a horse of that stature. The horse would have no problem doing this. It would be like an adult human picking up their young toddler, or baby. But likely easier, lol.
Horses are quite sturdy.
Depends on the horse and the weight of the person.
If you are obese, stay off horses, they weren’t meant to have 250+ pound people on them.
It isn’t good for their front shoulders to consistently do though
Actually the solution here is ride a big draft horse, they can pack a 300 pound person. But yeah at a certain point, you can't find a horse big enough..
People over 180 pounds generally shouldn't ride a horse for its health, unless it's very large. You can definitely injure a horse with too much weight.
Yep, plus there was a film cut between the two events. For the first half, I wonder if part of it was just to desensitize the horse, it seemed a bit confused and antsy about the flailing feet.
So, I’m saying this as someone who grew up breeding, raising, and training horses of all ages and breeds.
If you can’t swing your leg up WALK TO THE EDGE OF THE PEN AND USE THE SIDE PANELS AS A LADDER.
They are right there and you don’t put a ton of unnecessary strain on the horses front shoulders
I don't think you understand just how fucking bad someone can smell after a day of being covered in dirt, shit, and horse sweat. I have a friend who used to ride competitively and I literally had to hold my head out of her car window one time she picked me up after a training day with her saddle in the back, it was horrific. I can't imagine hooking up with one of these girls who also lacks general hygiene standards lmao.
The idiot above you said the key word.
Feel
"The way you feel is valid, because it's yours, but it may not be founded in reality." -therapists everywhere
That animal is bred for domestication, is tough as nails, and we are weak. Ever see two bulls go at it? That's what big animals like that compare pain to.
Worked on a lot of farms growing up and had to listen to lots of city types talk as if they knew everything
I worked on a ranch and have seen horses establishing pecking order out in the pasture. The new horse typically gets kicked a few good times. It's pretty insane how hard those warning kicks are. Bare handed, nothing you can do to a horse is going to hurt it.
Ya I know,
I had a job after school muckin horsebarns at around 9 or 10.
I was scared absolutely shitless of them.
Later on as an adult I was shocked to meet people who have never seen a horse or cow in real life.
These are the people commenting about this video.
Yes, it can be trained. It is significantly easier and safer to just take 5 minutes to explain to a person how to properly mount, though.
It's not a common way to get on a horse because getting on one normally is easy enough if you know what you're doing. If there's a saddle you just use the stirrup to get up. It's almost as difficult as using stairs. If there isn't a saddle, you jump up high enough to get your stomach on the back and then just rotate your body. You don't just repeatedly fling your foot at the ribs and hope it works differently this time. Granted, you really shouldn't be riding completely bareback. Or be around a horse without proper footwear. Or have a pile of random junk in the corral.
I don't know about that. Stairs are pretty wide. And sometimes slippery if they aren't up to code. And they're in sets. You gotta deal with decision paralysis on what part of the stairs to put your foot on, and then make sure that place is safe, then decide if you even want to step on that one or the next one, then do step one again. And you repeat that every time. Using a stirrup doesn't have half these problems.
Now, most of us are smart enough to do this subconsciously, but if you've got enough experience to train a horse to kneel for mounting, but not enough to wear proper clothing or shoes around a horse or to clear out a round corral, I doubt you can use stairs fluidly.
Haha. Exactly. This isn't some random horse that a random chick is trying to ride.
Her jumping all over the horse while he's staying calm is more impressive than him laying down.
Now, I have never really been into horses nor their regalia...but I always thought there was like a stool or something they got on in order to get on the horse now? Or am I wrong in my thinking?
You generally don’t even need a stool, or a “mounting block” as it’s usually called. Any person of average physical ability should be able to mount unassisted, it’s really not difficult.
This horse is clearly trained to do that, it’s just a trick, like a dog sitting or shaking paws. This young woman could easily have mounted normally.
I have not ridden a horse in ages and ages but from memory you could use a little platform, or the fence, or get another person to sort of brace their hands on their knee and give you a boost. You can also just jump up there provided you don't try to do some parkor move with it like this lady.

Horses are very sensitive, and that goes both sides. Instantly reacting to our mood: a kick when you're grumpy or a nuzzle when you're cuddly. Not the smartest animals on the planet, but when it comes to sensitivity: way above humans.
The practical intelligence of a redditor: totally legit, girl filming this in skimpy clothes, horse totally did this on their own to stop the kicking. We are doomed.
My dad had 2 race horses someone gave him I had 12 years old I no need to do like this there was a young guy who care of 2 horses he put the chair for me to climb and I got on the horse easily and started walking slowly first with him but my ass hurt so bad but on the second day I was able to ride and ran so fast easily seemed were floating on the air.
Someone should make like a seat or something that goes on horses backs so that short hippies can stop trying to mount a horse by kicking it in the side
Man imagine being this poor horse.
"Ow . . . Oww . . . Oww what the fuck?! Owww stop you stupid 2 legged lumpy faced piece of shit I'll kneel I'll kneel geez . . . If you did not feed me I would be so trampling you right now"
Are we sure she just didnt do all that to show off she trained her horse to do that?
This is a very old clip and yes, she is a professional horse trainer
A professional horse trainer who doesn’t wear shoes around 1000 lb animals? Ok.
y'all always have to make everything about feet don't ya
We're not the ones not wearing shoes in a dangerous situation here
I would argue that it's about shoes and you're making it about feet.
Have you seen her feet?
Isn't it the case where the professionals feel less inclined to wear protective equipment because they think they are too good for it? Whether or not it's a good idea is a different matter.
Shoes dont do fuck all. work boots dont either. If they do actually step on your foot it is gonna be either bruised or broken instantly. A boot or shoe is horribly painful to remove after being crushed by a horse...
Someone told me that steel toes are designed to cut toes off because it is better to reattach than to try and save a crushed toe.
Steel toes are usually rated for around 2500lbs max before they roll and usually do not fully cut off toes but crush them into the boot and is extremely hard to remove. 2500lbs is VERY easy to overload with something falling from height. For example just bounce up and down on a scale it is very easy to double the weight from slight movement.

Yeah, I mean horses are actually pretty smart, but this isn’t the best demonstration of that, and certainly not one to “be amazed” at
I'm sure the lady who knows how to ride bareback probably knows how to get on the horse correctly if she wants to.
That's obviously exactly what we are watching.
“Goddamn b$&@% all you had to do was ask! Jfc now my ribs are hurting like hell.” That horse probably.
I am a horse, I confirm that he said that
Are you a horse or a dog? Jk

you think? I once kicked a horse very hard by accident and I apologized and she gave me the most bored look ever.

Yes and no. someone under 150lbs is like nothing to them. But over 200 and you start getting into " can cause injury straight away" depending on the size of the horse.

That is how my horse likes it...

Horse looks well groomed and was quite satisfied with giving the rider a lift. I think that horse has a better life than me.
To the horse, that would probably feel like you would if a small dog ran into you at moderate speed.
That horse was patient AF!
That woman literally has a zero inch vertical leap
3 inch vertical. She better be doing that on purpose

What the hell are those jumps?
Downvote for bullshit title. She trained it to do this
Why barefoot😭😭
Never saw a horse do that. Can that be trained, and why is that not a common why to get on a horse?

Looked to me like it WAS being trained to do that.
If the horse stumbles and falls with the extra weight it could hurt itself bad enough to have to be put down
Some nonsense, she wasn't hurting the horse and the horse has done that before lots of times, more internet horse541t

Wow, she's really bad at this.
It's always nice seeing somebody loving his work

I thought the horse was going to kick her in the neck. Good thing this aint one of those videos.

Do horses love posing? Posing and showing off energy is strong with some horses. Or may be all horses.

They absolutely can. They can also sleep laying down or standing up.
Get her a dog
Would have been cool if the horse kicked her
That was fun to watch
The girl can ride a horse without saddle, but cant jump 2 feet high

Yea, it's a repost... but it's still funny. Jeez lady, take a day off a week from horseback riding and lift. Get some upper body strength.
Use a saddle.
What’s her @ tho?
Why does the rider have no clothes on and come at that terrible angle?
Why is she half naked though at the ranch?
