“I have also been thrown over a horse by a professional athlete who had never given anyone a leg up before”
Please forgive me for LMAO.
The mental image was just too much.
;D
The horse I grew up on was 16H and I rode bareback so I had to lead him to something I could climb up on and jump from, onto his back.
About 25% of the time, that wiseguy would deftly step sideways as I was mid-leap, landing me flat on the ground.
He’d turn to look at me, bob his head, snort and swish his tail.
He was such a joker.
Best horse I ever had.
When she lifted me with her legs she threw me into the air so high that only the toe of my left foot touched the back of the horse which rotated me upside down for the hit on the ground.
It was hilarious.
