I'm guessing this is the right forum heading for this very short video highlighting pure escapism.

Yeah, it's the right place Geffers and I've never seen a horse follow someone in that manner before. Wow.

Wonderful.....
as always with such clips, too short, I wish we saw more, and also, was horsey following the human or the dogs?

I totally love this! This is the way life if supposed to be or at least maybe every once in awhile you get to have some joy served up the way you like it with the great outdoors.

yes, this little clip has that sense of freedom you get when you are out in Nature.
What really makes it is that horse Strong, free, unrestrained by reins or riders, at least for a while.....

I recall some years back there is an equestrian farm near me, always horses grazing in the numerous fields. On one occasion whilst walking through the area a couple of horses started galloping round the field, then others joined in, soon there must have been 10 to 15 horses just galloping round the fields. They then stopped and went back to grazing.

I was amazed and questioned one of the horse owners who was walking by - she replied that on occasions the horses do have their mad moments.

Certainly a memory that remains with me.

yes, I can see how a sight of galloping horses is a sight to remember, the power must have been palpable.
May I just say that I doubt it was correct to dismiss this episode as horses having their 'mad moments', don't you think?
I realize this was the explanation given by the horses' owner, but you know, people would do it sometimes, just give an off the cuff answer, even if they know better.
Being very much a herd animal, the horses may have actually followed their leader, who for some reason known only to him, decided to gallop ....

I love horses and had loved to ride many years ago. My dh and I were just talking today about having a farm and he would have the cows, and I said that was fine as long as I had one horse.

Whatever the reason memorable. Walk that route on numerous occasions and never seen the like since.
