I just don't understand how can someone give an unreliable horse to someone who have never ride in their life. Without helmet, on the trail?? What a way to star, he coud be dead now. Would like to hear your opinions on this. The guy obviously does not know how to even hold the rains.

Oh my, I can't decide if I am amused or if I feel bad for the poor horse (probably a little of both). Definitely not a horse for such an obvious beginner. The guide was trying as best he could to teach this poor guy something. But....I can't tell you how hard I cringed at the end when he tied the horse to the post with the reins, especially since the horse pulled back earlier in the video.  |

I didn't watch it to the end...only about a minute and a half...but how many people think riding a horse is simple and easy...only to find out it is not.
Did the guy make himself out to be a rider then was rewarded by getting into trouble...he had to take video I see...
Did he not see the horse from the very beginning was not well-behaved...
Any smart person would be questioning a horse with such a attitude the handlers went far away during saddling time...and they placed the pad expecting their to be an explosion of angry objection from the horse...
So many things it could be...
Sadly, it could of been one of his "friends" thinking it funny to do such a thing to another.
Because I didn't watch it I have to hope he was not hurt badly...
And again, the animal pays the price for thoughtless humans...

I suffered thru to the end, and at least the rider stated the horse was great and he gave wrong signals to the horse, so not a totally horrible ride. at least the rider did not fall off the edge of the path riding that close to the edge.
nice looking arabians and he should thank his life was kept safe by the smartness of that horse
and he did pet it at the end. .

Crazy, he did pretty good considering, even the other guys horse was being naughty, who takes a beginner out like that, so lucky nothing serious happened, thank god it just had a snaffle on too!
I kept waiting for it to gallop off up the road!
