My first fall was when I was trotting over a 1.5ft pole, my horse, as you know by reading my other stories, is very lazy. Because of this laziness I expect little out of her. Here's the story, than the explanation of the video above.... That's not me and please don't watch it until I say to because it goes along with my story.
Ok. So I fell off trotting over a 1.5ft high pole, like I said. I have only jumped once before and that was an accident. I don't know how I didn't fall of then but fell off now and that was before this. But anyway that's a different story for another day. So I trot over the pole and she jumped, not trotted, jumped. I didn't expect that because of how lazy she is but she jumped. My trainer said that I fell off because my heels went up and my upper body collapsed this is what it felt like:
It felt like I went forward in my seat, the back in my seat then over the side.
What I saw was a blur and then the horses leg and then I braced myself
I wish I had the video to show u but I don't. Luckily I pulled my arm up right before I hit the ground or it would have been broken. To be honest the fall was fun until I hit the ground. But I tried getting up. I said I'm good because I didn't feel any pain but the second I stood up I felt it and then I said no I'm not laid back down and started crying. My trainer was trying to comfort me but instead I ignored her and went to Maggie and hugged her, still crying. When I fell Maggie stopped right where she was and didn't move. It was funny because in the vid it looked like I disappear Maggie stops and the reigns fly everywhere. But back to the story. So my trainer makes me get up and get right back on Maggie. I am great full for that because otherwise I would have been scared to death my next lesson. We did the course again. Of course I was scared but I still trusted Maggie. My next lesson all we did were trotting over 1.5ft high poles, or course.
Please now watch the video
I hate this girl!! She holds on to the reigns when her horse is backing up which is dangerous to both of them and when she gets up she runs at the horse to beat it with her crop!! I heard it! She smacked her horse extremely hard.What a rich spoiled brat! I got up and hugged my horse still crying when I was on her, I don't know why because I wasn't afraid enough to cry and my hip(what I landed on which hurt a lot for the next week) didn't hurt that much. Geez. Really. And after the hors runs away from her she still goes after it. I would NEVER do that. If u do shame on u.
That is the only fall I've had so far so my next one won't be for awhile hopefully. Sorry for how long it is but I wanted u to get the whole picture.
