  • Always be ready for the unexpected , horses are hoses !

  • what happened to the horse with the blaze's right ear?

  • @breyernakotalover Its ears lack some sort of muscle I think, I used to know what it was..

  • LOVETHEHORSES ! they are so beautyfull,.

  • Flappy has the cutest ears ever, bless!.

    Also, just to add, any situation while handling horses is potentially dangerous!. However in this clip, I just saw horses being horses!.

    Thumbs up if you just Loooove Flappys ears! x

  • Stupid humans interfering with horses trying be horses.

  • why don't the horses just walk over the fence?

  • So.. this 'dangerous situation' is getting a horse in from a field...

  • People are so mean...

  • How is that dangerous the back ears means they are listening and they were doing they head nozzle thing meaning in horse terms they were cuddling

  • Aww Flappy's ears are so cute :D

  • a horse could so jump that fence..just saying...some could STEP over it...:/

  • QUE BONITOS CABALLOS ESTAN BIEN CUIDADOS

  • What beautiful horses. Don't know anything about horse handling. Just a pleasure to watch these two beautiful creatures.

    

  • It's not the two horses meeting that is dangerous, it's the human being to close without any protection what so ever. Even if horses get along, they can still play rough and you should never get in the middle of that.

  • I love Flappy's ears. :)

  • If anyone here is a real horse lover/person you would realise the horses are greeting eachother because they have probably just been introduced to eachother. Any horse lover/person would know to watch out for if they strike out at eachother but it's pretty simple to just keep away from front legs, come up to the side and calmly take the other away if you want it for whatever reason... No danger at all. It's people that make the problem.

  • i have seen and had worse happen. that is nothing and clearly calm comunication between the two horses.

  • potentially very dangerous.... if they were stallions.

    not saying there isn't a chance of being kicked or something else. Any situation involving a horse is potentially very dangerous if your going to put it in perspective like this.

  • Poor Flappy... I feel so sorry for him, but he is beautiful. And if you don't own horses or know about them then keep your damn mouth shut because getting kicked in the face is an everyday condition!

  • this is dangerous..FOR THE HORSES. if one of them had lifted his leg, then it wouldv'e been a dangerous situation.

  • why was that horse turned out in an area where the fence is so low anyways? He could basically step over that if he wanted...

  • Now that is a pretty horse!!

  • whats wrong with the ears of this one horse?

  • I don't think this was really out-of-the-ordinary dangerous. It's just one of the dangers that comes with being around horses. I also think that the lady waving her arms and yelling at them made them nervous. I think she should have waited till thee was an actual problem before stepping in, but otherwise she handled the situation well.

  • and bye the way Flappys ears are so cute !:) lovely horses!

  • Iv'v gown up with horses, never been kicked. its about how u communicate , using common sense. All theses horses where doing is getting to know each other, horses are always communicating with u, the way the ears point the hight of the neck,body posture if its tense or relaxed and so on, it only dangerous if you,r not paying attention to the situation. also your movement around the horse, your breathing , it can sense your feelings, and this can change the horses i agree with likeitloveit19

  • That is one gorgeous horse.

  • how was this situation any more "potentially dangerous" than any other horse-handling situation? a ton of people lead their horses that way (without a halter)

  • Wow dangorous. if u where half smart u would have stayed out of it! stupid!

  • Il n'y a aucun danger, ces chevaux se comportent NORMALEMENT! et veulent rester ensemble!!

  • this is actually normal horse behavior. the thing not normal in this video is the woman trying to separate them. she should of not approached, especially without a harness or lead rope on her hands, walk behind the horse and then come back with just a rope to put around the horses neck... the only one in danger was her and it was her own fault

  • those are some monster horses. Very pretty :D

  • Since the other horse has a halter why not just take him away with a lead rope? the other one would be less agitated.

  • @ralzeet I 100% agree with you. I've been around horse's since I was a baby. Broke my first when I was twelve. I've been in situations far more "dangerous" than this, and still haven't considered myself in danger. This is simply nothing more than everyday behavior, I see it literally everyday. Not trying to step on any toes, but judging by this video, this was not a dangerous situation, nor did it look like it would have escalated to that any time soon.

  • @SubtitlesandCoco Then you're an idiot waiting for YOUR accident to happen.read my earlier post and please take it to heart.I've been working with horses over 30 yrs,professionally..It happened to me,it CAN happen to you.Also,a close friends'father was KILLEDin a somewhat similar situation.he,too,worked with horses for decades,the horse that killed him was 15,he'd had him since birth..Please don't make an angry,or boastful reply,please take it to heart.God bless

  • I think that the lady was actually making them more and more nervous.

  • umm at what point is this a dangerous situation? any seasoned horse owner should know at the very least there horse's temperament and attitude also you should have enough experience to understand when a horse is a potential threat therefor taking proper precaution but yeah this was not dangerous and whoever filmed obviously inexperienced. nice looking horse's though and those floppy ears very cute lol

  • At 1:13 when he wheels around, yeah that would shake me a little bit. Close call. ;)

  • Mood killer! 

  • There are halters that don't depend on the horse ears to stay in place. They're very simple and probably used before the ones we know now. You can form that with a rope over the neck cross it under the head and over the nose (excuse my english, I don't know the specific terms in that language) back to under the head where the rest of the rope is the leading rope then. We had one of such halters (properly leather halter not selfmade) for some smart horse that would always slip off normal halters.

  • the horse with the halter on is so cute! what breed is it?

  • why would you have a fence that low in a place where your not supervising them the whole time. with 2 horses you can trust is a different story but this isn't. even in your title you said this horse was potentially dangerous so why give it the freedom to go hurt other animals?!?!?!?!?!

  • Clearly the begiiner that vidoed this is a bit excited by some horses communicating, watch them some more and you'll realize that this video really isnt interesting at all, it is every fucking day shit but clearly enough to excite a beginner who hasnt looked at horses much - end of subject buddy, get the fuk over it

  • hes ears are cute :)

  • They are so beautiful!!

  • You guys should special order him a collar. :) I can understand how a harness wouldn't fit over Flappy's head, but if you can find a leatherwork shop, they can help you out. I had to special order one for an German breed Doberman that was overly large for what he was. I know horses are not dogs, but it would probably help you lead him around if there is a situation with a not-so-friendly horse, or a William in a bad mood lol

  • Flappy is so pretty

  • what a tiny fence o-o

  • What gorgeous horses!

  • Clearly the person who took & uploaded this video is a beginner / non-horse person .. To video an every day communication between horses as if it were so interesting & than calling it potentially very dangerous sounds very inexperienced to me. Cute lol that they found this entertaining. But yeah so my point is here guys that this is not potentially very dangerous. Its normal every day horse handling, small chance of being kicked, not brave, just requires experience thats all

  • @ralzeet yea this is just everyday horse stuff lol

  • @ralzeet

    being kicked in the face is everyday horse stuff, for those who are not aware of or are completely underestimating the dangers around horses.

    This was a very close call. And I have seen and heard it happen, and the horrible leftovers of a ladies face after receiving the full blast.

    Williams friendliness saved the day. Me stepping in would have destroyed this delicate balance.

  • Comment removed

  • @hackneysaregreat no one got kicked in the face genius.

  • @hackneysaregreat lol being kicked in the face is everyday horse stuff? I spend almost everyday around horses i've never been kicked in the face. 

  • @hackneysaregreat Being kicked in the face by a horse is everyday horse stuff?!?! Yeah right.. I have NEVER been kicked by a horse...let alone in the face..

  • @hackneysaregreat Listen lady, I break horses, train horses, rope off of horses, and have been riding for ALONG time. Nothing was dangerous here, The only dangerous part was the stupid humans. I could name 10 things easily that I saw these ignorant people doing wrong. Nothing what so ever was dangerous in this video. These horses are just asserting domanance among each other. And dont tell me any different because I KNOW I know more about horses than you.

  • @hackneysaregreat If being kicked in the face is everyday horse stuff for you... you really need to get some lessons or more experience with a trainer.. cause that shouldn't be happening. and that was not a close call, there was no aggression from the other horse (or yours). you really need to look into the body language of horses, it would help you a lot. A LOT. remember.. 95% of the time, it's the handler/rider's fault when something happens between any horses and human interaction.

  • @hackneysaregreat You don't let your horse out much, do you? Horses will be horses. They will meet and decide who is high horse. This means they might have things to say, and yeah, if you get in between them, then you'll be the idiot for getting caught in the crossfire. Just let them be.

  • @hackneysaregreat i own horses. if getting kicked in the face was "everyday stuff", id need alot of plastic surgery.

  • @ralzeet Actually stallions often will fight as they want to be the Alpha so the situation could get extremely dangerous. That's why there are never two stallions in one paddock, they'd fight for dominance all the time.

  • @gallopracerfan

    ???????? They arent stallions

    No balls lovely haha

  • @ralzeet My horse career is over due to being injured by a young horse who was "so sweet,wouldn't hurt a fly"unfortunately I was dumb enough to believe it.Now I walk with a cane and a permanent limp,I will never be able to ride again.So please don't be sofoolish and brag about something so dangerous,next time it could be you.I don't say this to be mean,I say it because it hurts to see a young person put themself in danger,all for the sake of a video and a boast.

  • @di50lem

    You are very right, it is underestimating a situation that kills.

    I am sorry to read that you were seriously hurt.

  • @di50lem exactly

  • @di50lem I'm sorry you were hurt, but all that proves is that any situation that involves a horse is potentially dangerous. Nothing about this particular situation was more dangerous than usual. They're just greeting one another.

  • William is beautiful!

    

  • Brave bubi bubi

  • Why would two horses without a fence between them be "potentially very dangerous"...?

  • @Steedrider Any two horses communicating could mean a potential danger if a human stands between them, fence or no fence. If they try to determine dominance, they will bite, or rear, or kick. And guess who gets it if they're standing in the way? Correct! The human. Not out of malice, it's simply the animal's nature.

  • @AlaiaViper then the thing to do would be go into the fenced area, chase the horse inside it away and then get hold of the other one. plus, why is it taking her so long? either grab a halfter right away or wrap the rope around his nose AND neck, and not just around the lower part of his neck, where he is unlikely to follow pressure anyway.

  • @Steedrider I do not mean to be rude, but I need to ask this, how much do you actually know about horses? I've been around horses for almost 28 years, since I was a toddler, now, I am not saying I know everything, at all, there is always more room to learn, but what you're suggesting indicates you haven't really read the description, plus, I think you are confusing horses for dogs. You can chase the horse away, suuuure, but it'd come right back, plus, you'd be well on your way to ruining him.

  • @AlaiaViper No intention to be rude, either, but I think youre overrdramatising. Shoo-ing a horse away doesnt give him a trauma. As I am only 25, its obviously impossible to be aroud horses for 28 years - but I suppose a couple of years work at breeding, showing and trekking stables counts as well.

  • @1983Cortex my bfs account ;)

  • @1983Cortex I suppose opinions differ, as they very often do in the horse world. At least you aren't as bad about it as some I have met. ;-) Let's agree to disagree and cordially keep it at that, lest we end up flooding this video with a pointless arguement. Thank you for keeping it polite, and have a lovely day!

  • @AlaiaViper

    Alaia Viper ... There is no "pointless argument here" .. you just simply do not know what you are talking about. No offence at all but it sounds to me like you are somebody who has recently got involved with horses / or someone who has had some minimal horse experience who from that think s they can pull themselves off now as an experienced horse person. Anyone who dramatizes an every day situation like this sounds very unconfident/new/beginner. End of subject.

  • @AlaiaViper

    hahaha! are you serious? Sorry! HAHA! it would come back if you werent confident enough handler to MEAN IT when you shu them away! Seriously "well on ur way to ruining him" seriously??!! what are you on about?!!! You been around horses for as long as you say than you wouldnt be talking in the fashion you are, you are either a complete beginner or not very intelligent, stop talking ypu are digging yourself a bigger grave to wear the idiot label.

  • @ralzeet *Pat pat* Awww, you poor person. I am not talking about myself, you morron, I am talking about the person in this video, who clearly -is- a beginner, and you start to troll me like some class-A asshole? Oh, wait, that's cause you are. Now please, keep your narrow-minded opinion to yourself, no one want to hear a total retard burp. :p Have a nice life. *Blocked* :p

  • @AlaiaViper

    Charming troll arent you? Seen you trolling everyone lovely, i think its time you leave this wall

  • @AlaiaViper

    Narrow minded ? Sorry didnt know this topic was about being open or closed minded

    Clearly you are a uneducated fool with minimal experience, scurry along now you are late to kindergarten & wasting peoples energy here. Go away fool

  • @ralzeet Awww, bless, it thinks it can get me pissed off. Isn't that charming. Seems the blocked feature on Youtube doesn't work, I think I'll make them aware of that, idiocy still seems to come through the woodwork. And now you think you have become my personal stalker too? *Grin* Sweety, I don't troll. I point out, clearly you lack the intelligence to differentiate. Not surprising. Now then. I have better things to do than to reply to you. If you want to be petty, fine, it says more of you.:p

  • @AlaiaViper

    And? Dont stand in the way? Hows this a potentially dangerous situation, this is an every day thing in busy horse places, you simply move away from the fire line & move the horse inside via halter if there was a fight by yes shooing it away first to stop the fight so u can slip on the halter & move off. Any normal horse handler would easily handle this every day situation & would not even bat an eyelid about it. Confident handlers just do what needs to be done.

  • @Steedrider

    lol exactly how hilarious, obviously beginner handlers by the sounds of that "VERY DANGEROUS description

    lol

  • Flappy is cute!! I feel kind of bad for him since it looks like he can't really express his feelings with his ears. But at least that other horse is understanding and it sounds like he is well taken care of!

  • @violinist391 if you leave your horses fence on the ground you should not have a horse! its not taking advantage!! he stays on his side of the fence, if your horse will not walk over a peace of fence and will not go around it, you should probably re school your horse, and it probably wasn't broken properly in the 1st place!! sorry but the troth hurts.

  • Flappy is unbelievably cute!

  • im totally confused by the point of this videa?

  • @hunterjumper314

    and there is a thing called "description"

  • Comment removed

  • His ears are so cute! He reminds me of my beagle dog. <3

  • what kind of horse are these ? they look great!

  • I don't see a huge problem except maybe the handler. You often see people trying to handle horse that look like they have trouble walking themselves. In safely handling a horse it's not a bad idea to have some physical agility. You need to be able to get out of the way if need be. If you stumble and have trouble just keeping on your feet maybe you need to let someone else lead the horse........ One more thing. The ears don't hold the halter.

  • @spudth The Halter goes over what is referred to as the poll. This is a place behind the true poll (boney protrusion at the back of the skull) over the atlas which is the first vertabre in the neck. I've had many horse break halters pulling, the only way they get them off is if they don't fit correctly to begin with or are able to rub them off. I know I'm being critical but facts are facts....

  • das Pferd hat nur 1 Ohr ? :o

  • that's why I like using a halter more than a rope to lead a horse.It has quite a bit more control.Not knocking your way,as a lot of people do it. Nice horses.

  • Flappy's adorable! But why don't you just take him out on a big collar and a leash? as opposed to halterless i mean

  • I'm in love with William! :) ♥

  • what breed of horse are?

  • If it's only meant to be nothing more than an outline fence for a riding ring then WHY is the other horse grazing in it?

  • @Victoriam4074 yeah it says riding/grazing ring but you go on o say its not meant to be more than a riding ring outline...

  • By the way, William is BEAUTIFUL!

  • Flappy kind of seems like a douche.. xD

  • how the hell did i get here?!

  • OMG Flappy has the coolest ears ever! haha =]

  • They were both so pretty <3 Do you know why Flappy was born that way? Poor guy, it's probably messed up his hearing so bad :/

  • nerd time: OMG THEY HAVE MULTIPLE EPONA'S

    reality time: cept for the fact that epona is a girl, also beautiful horses.

  • I can keep my horse in with kite string! A well trained horse knows what it can or can't do!

  • Why was "William" loose in the riding ring anyways?

  • @4TheLoveOfPoniesX It says "riding/grazing ring" in the description...

  • Why the hell wasn't someone in the ring getting the other horse?

  • Get it a nose ring should do the trick, that or tie some thick rope round its bollox!

  • @armandin2048 What in the fuck?

  • @immacoolperson3 Again, a jokester. Thats how you manage a bovine Bull! LOL!

  • @armandin2048 Ya know, it's not a bull ya talking about..!

  • Such pretty horses!

  • my horse doesnt take advantage of "fake" fences. if he sees a piece of fence on the GROUND, he wont walk over it, or around it. He knows his boundaries.

  • @violinist391

    LOL

  • @violinist391 haha one of my colts is super smart and unlike the others who would get caught in a low fence (we have 1 1/2 foot high fences for coons) he seems to see it and carefully step over it. Also will somehow step over a 3 foot electric fence without getting caught or even stretching the wire and will just go eat grass somewhere. then when he sees you coming to get him he comes to you and goes quietly back into the pasture lol. He reminds me to keep my fences always on and at their best.

  • Stunning looking beast at the front *swoon* lol

  • thats a minute 48 ill never get back!

  • William is gorgeous!

  • Does no-one read the description?? They say that Flappy can't wear a halter, because it'd slip off his head. Also, they say the area that William is in is NOT a paddock, it's a riding area. That's why the fence isn't 'paddock grade'. Read the freaking descriptions before you comment!!!

  • I cannot believe anyone would put a stallion in a paddock with a fence that I could step over! That is just asking for trouble. My stallion would have gone right through it without a thought!

  • And people wonder why they get kicked! What an idiot!! If you can afford horses, you can afford a better fence.

  • That lady's an idiot. She's is lucky she didn't get hurt. Being careless like that around two horses that aren't familiar with one another is just asking for punishment. You keep a rope close but no halter? Sure; using a rope around the corral or pasture on a trusted horse is fine, but in this situation its terrible. *SMH. Don't keep pushing your luck lady. Gorgeous horses though

  • Flappy is seriously beautiful. So what if he has misformed ears? he is amazingly beautiful! Look at 0:40 !

  • Are they like mates?!?! My favorite horse I ride is named Sassy. She looks exactly like those two.

  • the horses are very nice :D and beautifull :D

  • JOEY! daww no star... hmmm... *grabs white paint* hee hee =3

  • ummm how was that dangerous??? jw

  • Oh my William is such a gentleman. Kudos to such a lovely horse.And Flappy is such a sweet heart trying to make friends.

  • Beautiful stunning horses wow

  • rlly pretty horse

  • wft kinda fence is that? I could easily step over it with my short legs.

  • so clearly William is Joey from War Horse...just without the star! what a gorgeous horse!! and poor Flappy just wanted to make friends.

  • Flappy and William would have been fine together, horses are horses and they fight. Although, the only dangerous part of this video was the fact that the woman got in the way. She could have been injured, but women just have this stupid instinct to "save" everything.

  • this is the most irresponsible set up ever.

  • wow! They are most shiny, and GORGEOUS horses I have every seen! O_O

  • Aawwww! What a good boy William is! And lovely, too!

  • HE'S SA PURDDDYY :)

  • Awww his ears are adorable ><

  • lol

    nice stick fence

  • Eheeeh. I love Flaappppyyy

  • She didn't seem very used to horses and what she was doing, but calm down. If you're afraid for your horse then put him in a different pasture. The ears, by the way, are NOT what keep the halter on. The horse would be able to keep a halter even if the ears were missing. Cue CHIN STRAP.

  • awe.... the floppy ear.. cute. :)

  • ooooooh oh so potentially dangerous . The lady could well have stood in a horse turd ... or potentially the stallion could have mistaken the woman for a mare and given her a bit of horse love (if she got lucky that is). Expect all the shit in the world if your title is going to be so off the mark. Its my 2012 crusade to give it to mistitlers like you.

  • @jtkiakaha have you ever been kicked by a horse? obviously not, horses, when they first encounter, are not the most gentle animals, especially, when there's a stallion around and they often don't care, if a human stands in their hooves' way. an in this video the horses were several times VERY close to turning their butts against each other and start kicking.

  • That's silly. Ears do not keep a halter on, if it fits correctly. I have always trimmed bridle tracks a couple inches behind the ears, because that's where the top strap sits.

  • @artgoat read the description.

  • @artgoat While you are right and the ears don't do everything to keep a halter on, they certainly do help. A halter could probably be used to lead him around, but if he pulled on it just right or if they turned him out in one he would probably get it off easily.

  • William is gorgeous!!

    

  • you have wonderful horses i hope that flappy becomes a nice family horse one day with you or someone else nice job on the work :) <3

  • oh c'mon, how do "U" feel.......when some one ruined your DATE?

  • Awwwwwwwww those ears are SO sad!!!!

  • I LOVE FLAPPY!!!!

  • how can you tell if Flappy ever gets mad? His ears won't give you a clue.....

  • @twomblypublishing ooo, thats a good point. Maybe other body signals like eyes, nose, or excessive swishing tail?

  • @twomblypublishing You don't need to use their ears as an indicate of their mood. Body language and eye movement, any horseman would tell you the same

  • @swiftnshift I agree w you completely... but the ears sure act as a very nice "flag" if you're attention is diverted for a moment and you don't see the wrinkles piling up around the nostrils etc.... and I know... your attention should never be diverted, even for a moment... but I still think that ears are a nice big (clear) first indicator :)

  • @twomblypublishing Because there are other ways you can tell if a horse is angry, such as the whites of their eyes showing, wrinkled, tight nostrils, tense muscles, etc.

  • @4TheLoveOfPoniesX I think womblypublishing was making a joke out of the observation of his silly looking ears.....LOL..

  • These are beautiful horses! <33

  • can you ride flappy?

  • wow, william is such a beautiful guy

  • Flappy just wanted a friend lol.

  • Gorgeous horses :)
