@@Widdekuu91 Sat in their seats and enjoy the free shot of nitrous to the horses.

I think he was going to try run up and grab the rains, the mother how ever 😂😂😂

To heck with y'all suckas.

I like how the kid in the red hoodie was like "No problem just jump straight down-" *Nope* 😂

LMAO lost it at "Margaret"

They got pretty close to the water. Don't get trapped in a sinking vehicle

@@gl7244 i was thinking about that. i was thinking if horses were dumb enough to run off a cliff.

@@gl7244 In?

Mommy?!

idk i feel like i wouldve jumped just out of panic. fight or flight ya know

Right 🥺

pathetic losers the whole lot of them

Maybe the parentes was under influence of oxycodone 80 mg?

They were supposed to catch them.

@@RonaldRoss79 that's very specific. Maybe ur under the influence of THC

Dad has to lead the way

In his defense, it look like he thought he could catch up with the horses and slow them down.

I love a jerk like yourself, critiquing a situation you never experienced.

1) He tried to slow down the horses. 2) He sat on the left. 3) He showed them how to exist safely and they still faceplanted. So how would that have gone any better if they exited first.

​@@davidnelson2472He's stupid 😆 Them horses were probably pulling that carriage upwards of 10mph. Did you see that man he probably couldn't even run 3mph And even if he'd had managed to grab one of the horses, he would have instantaneously regretted it! Two large horses like that can pull around 32,000 pounds, it probably would have ripped his arm off or out of socket.

Cut them loose

Poor horses glad took people for a spin LoL 😂 hillarious I would cracked up then I would of gone over to calm horses down cos none of those clowns knew what they doing

After this accident they turned them into horse jerky

@@SpiritDonkey i need to know too

Poor horses

Mckenna 0527 its humans faults for thinking its ok to bring horses to busy places pulling carriage's

Mckenna 0527 even the best trained horses can spooke. They are animals with minds and feelings of their own. People don't always think of that when crossing, handeling and seeing them on the streets - and I am not just thinking about horses.

Just for laughs, lets throw some blame at the protesters who blocked the road and yelled at the horses and caused the cars to be honking their horns. Rather than the horses or trainers who were doing something that horses and trainers have been doing since the 1800's lol.

Mckenna 0527 horses are very unpredictable any horse can get spooked

depends, if the driver honked whilst the carrige was passing then it would be their fault as they should know better

MetallicaPrinceGirl ikr

VintageSpinner 😂😂😂

😂😂

Or Arthur Morgan now that rdr2 is out. Lol that's what I was thinking of when I seen this

lol

They are most definitely hurt. They are walking on concrete and asphalt day in and day out, pulling way to heavy of a load for just 2 horses. 1 horse should only be pulling 2 people max, and that's without the weight of the carriage. Most of these companies are awful to their horses. It's gross.

My 28inch mini can pull 2 people easily. Two DRAFT horses can easily pull at least 10. Plus they have special shoes that are rubber that take in the shock. So my guess for you is educate your self a smidge bit more. These horse where fine, just a bit shaken up.

@@MMandGlitter yeah, no. That's a big load but draft horses can certainly pull more than 2 people 🤣 That's hilarious.

Unfortunately we had to put them down.... Danger to the public

@@micktre7608 are you serious ?

Mysmall petshop On other side, maybe she told them: ,,Kids,now we need to jump" And then she jumped first, cause she was closest to exit. Yaou never know...

The dad left first 😂

i can't stop laughing at them all falling. The last one looks like she fell because she thought she was supposed to. It's killing me

ahahahahahaha same thing for me !

Makayla Komrosky no kidding

Yeah the dad bailing off before everyone else is sure something the family will never forget

​​@@sharkwithnotoes3051He's thinking to himself he can start a new family.

MISTER DABILINA the invisible man

I suspect the driver dismounted and went to the horses' heads (which is not incorrect) when they stopped, and lost his grip on the bridle when they spooked. The mistake is that on a vehicle like this you should always have TWO people. The driver stays on board and a groom or whip dismounts to "head" the horses.

It’s not there fault 9/10 horses would spook if u made a loud noise to him he’s and ex racehorse and I bloody know he would run for the Hill if this happened

It's not a matter of controlling. If a horse spooks, you're screwed. Especially with not one, but 2 drafts.

Jennifer R. Povey as far as I know, she fell out. That’s the only reason this happened. No one was there to stop them.

LoL 😂

🤣 that teach them nothing about real life stressors

They should at least do that if they are going to be on the road all day.

Sound advice thank you from a carriage driver

Come on and be real. Just because you desensitized a horse does not mean they will not spook. Just the slightest variance from what they are use to can set them off, some easier than others. They are flight animals by nature. I always shake my head at what people advertise as a bombproof horse, there is no such thing!

Very smart.

hahahahahahaha

The police guy was actually better in calming the horse.

“Sir do you realize how reckless you were trotting just now?”

Give it a ticket!

Do you know what woah means

Seriously this looks pathetic. It's like you reach 40 and can't do any type of physical exercise anymore?

Hope you don't get to experience hitting the cement in an emergency.

@@ratherbfishing455 It's safer to stay on the horse, or in the carriage actually. If the carriage driver falls off though, you need to find the reins, pull back for a few seconds then release repeatedly until the horses slow down....

@@bwenluck9812 No. You turn them in a circle and try to take their head away from them if it's safe. I would have jumped out, as I thought maybe they would go into the water or been hit by a car. If I was in an arena or a huge field without holes or a barbed wire fence, I would have maybe stayed with them. They should have been trained with a running W, so when you say whoa, they think their hooves are going to come out from under them. Maybe, wouldn't have worked.

Because there's a very real risk in a situation like this of the carriage tipping. I adimt in THIS situation I would have stayed inside as it looked very stablem but...

Jennifer R. Povey it looked stable because nothing actually happened but someonething easily could of esp so close to the water, i would jump out

Well I know horses, and drive, and it sounds as if perhaps you might horse experience Jennifer. I personally would have done my best to get to the drive reins to see if I could get the team stopped. However, people who are not experienced with horses, are NOT going to know what to do. To stay to jump, some will freeze. I’m just very glad there were people available to get hold of them quickly. They longer they had worked themselves up, the more out of control they would have become

thought they were going for the water!

I would have stayed and hung on. The woman and girl that jumped off looked like they got more injured by falling then if they just stayed put.

It was hilarious

Nah the comments got me weak af

@@bigsmilie07 the comments are killing me 😂💀

As my coach says fake it til you make it. My horse gets scared every time im nervous so i have to force my body to pretend its calm when im not.

And another person The Belgian Draft Horse was used many years ago as a carriage for; Human Carriage, Log Carriage, Stone Carriage, and more. It is not abused as it was made with incredibly strong muscles and are used as competition horses. They come in many different sizes, and can also be trained to grow in a specific way. Obviously, God has chosen them to be used for draft. SO STOP RANTING AND SAYING "Oh poor horses! I feel so bad for them!" GET OFF YOUR PHONE, AND READ A BOOK FOR GOODNESS SAKES!

Exactly as far as I'm concerned horses shouldn't be in city's because there is always the potential for the horse to panic horses need country space to be worked and ridden

@@MadiLikesPie sorry but humans domesticated horses and bred them to be big and strong therefore humans responsible for horses being as they are so yes people should be saying are the horses ok!?!

If you can’t have a horse in busy places without them being like this somethings wrong

@@MadiLikesPie just because its been here for a long time and all that, it doesnt mean they should be doing it

Same 😂

Right? 😅😅😅

You're an idiot.

Kristen Slice well calling someone an idiot is a wise thing to do? That isn't something wise/kind to say.

Kylie Wilson your not an idiot! I completely agree I hate this! X

Kylie Wilson I'm okay with carriages in small towns with no traffic and not crowded or busy. Yes, probably less business but it's for the horses safety. I'm totally against carriages in large town or anywhere crowded.

Kristen Slice ok what u need to do is stfu

OhMyItsAwkwardLibby I WHEEZED TO THIS COMMENT

She was getting her moneys worth no matter what, huh. She's hanging on for dear life while looking back at the bodies flying out of each side of the wagon still happily determined to sit there & ride along with the horses.

Stupid humans

They have been used for centuries to pull an array of carts, wagons etc, regardless whether it's a draft, a horse is a horse and the slightest thing can spook them causing havoc , perhaps that is why the comment 'poor horses' was made. As it said tourists were beeping horns and this clearly spooked them.

@@MadiLikesPie OK BOOMER

@@julieadamson6537 Carriage horses are beaten, over worked, live in small stalls and collapse on roads. Look up videos and photos. Be aware not everything is as it seems or what people say.

That life insurance tho'...

@Crypt Keeper 2356

MrSmid888 I think he was gonna try and be superman and stop the horses but bailed out as soon as he got ot

Look at the video again the whole family was all going to jump off, it's just they did it one at a time to jump to safety so they wouldn't get hurt and the dad is running not to catch the horse but to catch his kids for when they jump out

You shouldn’t be riding in the road you are the stupid one

@Horse Girl 2.0 I concur!

Such an interesting story

An animal shouldn’t be existing where they’re spooked by loud sounds. Loud sounds have been around since the beginning of time. Desensitize all animals with stuff like that immediately so you don’t try to blame someone else for your accidents

maybe keep horses off of roadways where cars drive and honk

Dad jumped off to try and catch the horses. Not his fault the family followed, lol.

@@Lorgayle1 like those horses would have listened to him lol

@@horse-4598 Exactly. Why do people think they know how to stop a run away horse.

@@iimdone Not the horses fault but they still shouldnt be there

Bit like offloading mailbags without stopping the vehicle?

Thats the truth...makes them run harder...best thing is a bucket of oats...but i guess no one had any.

@@sislertx yep. And with everyone hopping off when the situation was mild anyway.

They would have been more likely heading for the brakes on the vehicle!

they should of moved up the coach and grabbed the reins if possible

The last thing a spooked horse is thinking about is eating oats, they're in flight mode. The blinders keep them from seeing things coming from behind, that's why they wear them. They're natural instinct tells them that something following from behind is a predator. You can train them to drive without blinders, but they are a good measure for precaution!

Don't worry! They are not hurt! It's a Belgian draft horse so it was made for carriage! They grow with strong muscles that help them carry things. It's actually quite beautiful

@@MadiLikesPie So true! I'm a bit sick of people who say that's abuse, when it's not. There are many other things in equine world that are abuse and not that much people know about it.

Because they where literally made to do this! I mean how tf do you think people got around. With no cars?

@@MadiLikesPie Do you seriously think the horses enjoy carrying people all day?

@@kyberghost3607 Honestly, a well cared for horse can enjoy carrying people regularly. Once they find a task they are good at, they like it quite a lot, as long as they're effectively given work-life balance. Some horses really love running and want to race. Some horses love jumping. Some love pulling. Some love teaching kiddos. They do need downtime and TLC though, much like people do. Belgian horses tend to like pulling; that's what they were bred for and are very good at. Unless they are being over-worked or have some other form of abuse, it is a nice activity for them.

they are not abused.

omg, what do you think people did before cars in cities?

@@karrybosco7966 exactly. before cars

We are the gods. So it doesnt count. forced or abuse. we are gods . so everything is up to us.

@@karrybosco7966 the point is that there weren’t cars, so horses had to be used. There were also no cars that could hit the horses or spook them so it would be safer. Not only that but cities weren’t like the citys we have now. Forcing horses to work in a big city like this is somewhat abusive and it’s unnecessary.

Horse are like that. Look up. Arabian pleasure driving wreck. I still hate driving horses, because I saw a bad wreck in 1975 at a horse show in Dallas. It's dangerous especially, with hot blooded horses.

@@ratherbfishing455 ANY horse is dangerous if they're not trained properly.... There are just some horses who should not be used for driving--it takes a horse with a good mind....

@@bwenluck9812 Even if they are trained properly... They can be stung by a wasp and freak out. Especially if they have had a race horse cocktail. I've seen old lesson horses run off, because of firecrackers being shot off during the 4th. It was strange, because the horse should have been used to them. We used them during photo sessions.

he bailed.

@@bwenluck9812 even a well trained horse can spook. I used to part board the safest horse... spooked at a car mat.

Stephanie tuten no horse belongs in a city

All Around Eq not saying that horses belong there in the city trust me on that. I rather we never had exploited them and let them roam free and we never had cars or citys or roads but this is the reality left by our fore fathers and all we can do is try to do better.

Stephanie tuten yeah I agree on that, I think its rediculous that someone would sound a horn at them. Disrespectful people

Stephanie tuten No, this is why you sensitize people to this cruel use of horses.

Do you think horses are dumb

@@gabrielasmolen441 Horses aren't exactly dumb. But would you be thinking straight if something scary was happening? Them being scared enough to lunge for the water could've actually happened. It's something that could happen to even cattle, or other prey animals. So, them not falling in is a good thing.

@@echotrash466 I know that but I never said horses or Animals are dumb.

“they’re ok”

Why? The could have ended up in the water or in traffic. Horses panic.

Barry Hook is a awesome person with great horsemanship skills

Somebody should sack you out you inhumane pos.

cakeman58 Sack out just means you carefully get the horse used to anything that scares it. The horses get calmer and more confident with this training. Horses are curious animals and when they gain confidence with something that scares them, they will cautiously approach and smell it. With sounds they are first trained from a distance and when relaxed that distance is reduced until they no longer fear that sound. Of course you can never bomb proof your horse against everything, but the time taken in desensitizing a horse against anything that it may encounter makes for a confident and relaxed horse. I have no idea what training these horses received or if they are well treated, but most horses enjoy their jobs as few people want to risk their lives with an animal that weighs over a thousand pounds.
