I am put in mind of a willful horse, being goaded too far by a cruel rider, slips the bit in its mouth backwards where it may be seized by the large molars in the back of the horse’s mouth, and the bit is therefore immobilized. This is called “taking the bit in the teeth”, something most horsemen have acquaintance with. Normally, hauling back on the bridle reins is enough to control the horse, as the mouth is very sensitive, but once the horse has the bit firmly clamped, this means of controlling the horse is lost to the rider, who may not have any other means of persuading the horse to obey.
In for one hell of a ride. The horse will eventually stop. Whether the rider is still aboard or not is a matter for some speculation.

As it should...
