MCSO rescues 100+ tubers who got stranded on the Salt River due to large fallen branch

[@KimThomas-tl8ef]

To all of you being rude about the weight on that horse, you should be ashamed! That horse was therapy for her. She lost someone extremely close to her and Jellybean helped her get through it. That horse adores her. They are both very lucky to have each other.

[@SaltySouthTexan]

As a quarter horse trainer, there are LIMITS to what amount of weight is humane to that animal. You’ve got a saddle and blanket, already close to 40-50 pounds. Then you put a morbidly obese human on their back, that’s hard on an animals spine, his hocks, fetlocks and hooves. It’s not being rude, it’s being moral, and sane about the animal. I do not allow anyone over 230 pounds on any of my horses and they can easily take it and work for a while, but 230+50 saddle and tack you’re at 280 pounds. How you like it if strapped 70 pounds on you and said go work all day??? Everyone so sensitive these days instead of being a realist! That horse will have spinal issues.

[@seeharvester]

@@SaltySouthTexan Jellybean is afraid if he doesn't let her ride him, she'll eat him.

[@kobrapromotions]

Dont care if youre fat you are fat, buy a motorbike instead. Oh wait shes too fat to ride that.

[@lisahamel4538]

Why are you so certain you can guess her weight by looking at her? Shelby loves her horses, and she would never do something to jeopardize their health.

[@seeharvester]

@@lisahamel4538 Maybe you're right. They _do_ say, "the camera adds 10 pounds".

Jellybean is a rescue, what a precious wonderful horse. Thank you for your help sweet Jellybean and rider!

I hope it was because of alcohol and they really aren't that dumb

I’m a 10 year old boy who went on this day and when we got to the end my heart was racing because the current was so fast we couldn’t get to the exit in time but thanks to a person on the paddle boat we made it out

[@lisahamel4538]

For anyone tempted to comment on the rider's weight---Shelby and her family have been to hell and back in the last year. She loves her horses, is a very experienced horsewoman, and she would never jeopardize their health. Don't assume you know her weight from looking at a picture, and realize that commenting on it does nothing but spread hate in response to someone helping others.

Reminds me of that Family Guy episode "Lazy River" where all the fat people get stuck and they dislodge them with a broom. lol

How do you get stranded in foot deep water?

[@dannyrivera9805]

It's bc the dirt is super hot to walk barefoot

[@WildflowerAnn]

Don’t think that entire big branch would have floated off in two feet.

Do u pay attention?

[@susanlovesjava4961]

​@@D-blazeClimb over the log, walk around it, don't play a victim.

[@D-blaze]

@@susanlovesjava4961 Simple as that. Seems you have it all figured out. I whitewater kayak as a hobby but still wear a lifejacket down this river. Someone died on this river two weeks ago when I was on it. Got caught up in a strainer just like these people. Water is powerful and people are stupid.

[@petemarron6677]

Sweet horse.

[@danapowers9793]

Good job Jelly bean!

[@Mac-ix4qp]

I am going to guess, having kayaked down that spot before, some alcohol was mass consumed.

[@D-blaze]

Kayaking and tubing are two different animals. Won't catch me without a paddle on the water.

[@mattiemathis9549]

I’ve done both down the Salt. I prefer my paddle board. Even with paddles we had a difficult time controlling the tubes. And we were the only ones with paddles in the tubes that I saw.

[@onelittlelamb4030]

I still don’t know exactly what happened… You get stuck on a tree, you hop off get back in the river and keep floating down the river…

[@D-blaze]

Multiple people had their tubes popped or hung up I'm assuming. Strainers can be extremely dangerous, especially without a paddle.

[@onelittlelamb4030]

@@D-blaze I’m hearing that there were lots of people that were drunk. Swim to the shoreline?
