another...now seems like many moons ago..& was!...lol
i was working for a race horse trainer...
the paddocks were divided into lots for different work & holding or breeding yards
i had to work a huge 21 hander stallion....a jumps doer
after working him for good 1/2 hr...a new worker had unlocked & opened the wrong gates
letting in 3 brood mares!
well boys are boys..i ended up getting thrown off
i had never liked the"safety stirrups"..but used them under protest..
my foot had gotten caught & i was dragged the full paddock..maybe 1km..& a bit
& was knocked out...but not before the 4 of them stampeded over me
i was out cold..don't know how long...
felt my back being wet ..from the piercing of skin from one hoof
& vaguely remember the ute pulling up ..& they blokes putting me on the back of the ute
had no feeling down one side of me...
they heated me up with a Magna--Pulse.. a electric blanket that helps circulation on injured horses
the stampede did damage to my back..not allowed to ride anymore:cry:
i knew i shouldn't have used them safety stirrups!
