A DISASTER CAUGHT ON CAMERA // Draft Horse Pileup!!!

[@firecaptaintom1977]

You're advice on staying calm during a crisis is PRICELESS. In my career I saw so many situation made worse by panic. Your "motivation" of Lady was 100% justified. Tough love is still love.

[@creativehorsequeen]

I agree. We had a horse go down at my barn and we were afraid she was colicing so we had to get her up. She wasn't getting up so one of the trainers had to get in there and start smacking her with a crop. I hate using crops on horses, but in that moment, it was the only thing to get her up. So yes, sometimes you need a bit of tough love.

I’ve never seen a more calm equine than the heavy horses. I’ve seen several situations that would have had tragic outcomes with your typical horses. Drafts are incredibly forgiving and patient in spite of their tremendous size. Amazing how he managed all three without going into a huge panic.

[@LKre-vi5oq]

Totally agree. It wasn't Lady's fault, the gelding stumbled into her and took the whole thing down. So she's pinned by another horse, then gets kicked, hard, to get her back up. And yelled at. Jesus, give her a breather.

[@sassy6292]

@@dragon1255that was more a nudge with a foot. I don’t see it as a malicious nasty kick. When a horse won’t get up you have to give them some physical encouragement.

[@hfbroady]

Glad you showed that experience. In my opinion, I think a lot of KZbinrs do not show there struggles enough. Life is all about struggle; It's not IF you will have troubles is life rather, you WILL have struggles in life. It's how we respond to struggle that (again IMO) defines us. Glad to see Bill and Lady running. I love to see large animals get excited and run and play in the fields.

That's scary. Had an ole timer tell me always carry a good sharp knife in case you have to cut one out of the harness after a wreck.

[@susanbrown2909]

Yep good advice .

[@willbass2869]

Absolutely. My g-father tried to cut the gear off a mule that slipped down a stream bank in an attempt to save it. Steep, sandy bank and the animal just couldn't catch a foothold. Panic set in as mule slipped more and more. Water got deeper. Grown men shaken to their souls by sight & sound of mule fighting & braying in panic. Ended badly. Mule drowned

[@woodsgremlin9995]

The one problem with nylon or bio harness is that you can't cut it with a knife.

[@stuglenn1112]

@@woodsgremlin9995 It's not easy to cut but you can cut it with a knife if it's sharp. If you're at a point where you have to cut off parts of the harness that part is likely under a lot of tension (this helps with cutting it) due to the weight of the horse/horses equipment being on it. I've been there.

[@awalters1013]

I have no doubt he carries a knife…but I think he evaluated the situation and it didn’t call for cutting the harness. If she were severely tangled and panicking, then I bet he would have cut it.

[@fatgreyman183]

This episode gave me flashbacks! I have a team of Percheron mares that we bought from the Amish about 10 years ago. We were crossing the edge of a pond with a small wagon when my off-side mare got stuck in the mud and went down. I jumped off the wagon and started unhitching her and holding her head above water. I know most people don't leave halters under the bridal but I often do; to get her up and out I had to put a lead rope from Kate's halter to Kris's trace and pull her out. I've been so many "situations" with these ladies and they just never panic, they just wait for me to take care of the problem.

[@johnkomosa4089]

Impressed with how your horses responded to the accident. The blacks remained calm while you disconnected Lady and then hitched them to the right side of the tractor. Lady was nothing short of amazing. She remained calm and still while you unhitched her and moved the blacks. She showed complete trust in you and your actions. It's a joy to watch the way you and the horses work so well together.

Seeing this reminded me of a story my Grandmother told me, of when she was a young girl snigging logs with 2 horses and the chains got tangled up and the horse piled up like yours did. She began to get upset because she was having trouble untangling the horses and knew that my Great Grandfather would give her and her sister a hiding for letting the horses get hurt. They were tough times back in the 30's and 40's and the horses were worth their weight in gold. Thanks for sharing, Lady certainly was a love for staying calm.

The trust between these horses and you is amazing to watch. Its such a special relationship.

[@kimfleury]

Thank you for your honesty! "Hope for the best and plan for the worst" really applies to working with horses, doesn't it? It's important for people who are considering entering your kind of lifestyle to see that in this world there will be trouble. If not, it could really be disastrous for them. They might expect to have everything always go perfectly, but then suffer loss from not knowing what could go wrong. In my experience, just in general, knowing that things can go wrong and being ready for something bad to happen is the only thing that keeps bad from going to worse, because you're on alert and ready to spring into action and act intelligently to save the day. Even if it's a problem you've never encountered before, your eyes are open so you can think quickly and see the solution. But it takes the example of others to set your mind on being alert to potential trouble. You've done an immense service by honestly showing this disaster. Thanks be to God it all worked out for the best for Lady, and for Bill's improved leg! I enjoyed this video as always 💕🐎

[@Bret4207]

I remember the first wreck I had, scared the crap out of me! I got the horse untangled and he was fine, but I was scared stiff! I've had horses down to the point I had to get a loader tractor, work chains under them and lift them back onto their feet. Had cattle that were far worse and never did get back up. They do seem to lose heart sometimes and just won't try to get up. But if they don't get up, they'll die within a couple 3 days. Glad you got her up quick. The longer they lay there thinking they can't get up, the more the chances of real dire problems arise. I don't imagine many non-farm folks realize that, or that horses are far "meaner" to each other than we ever are. The Good Lord was watching over you too Jim, real, real easy to get hurt bad untangling a wreck like that!

[@leanns5440]

That's a really good point. Untrusting horses could have thrashed or bolted... entwining or crushing the handler. There is considerable risk being near a horse wreck, let alone untangling one.

The love, respect & trust you have with your horses is paid back ten- fold when a situation occurs like what happened. Those of us blessed with horses know that the time spent with them forms a bond of trust & when they get in a situation, as Lady did, she knew you had her six & would get her back on all 4’s. So many owners panic & over react, that just makes the situation worse, for the horse & owner. The new stallion is stunning, you’re going to get some good colts & fillies by him! Congrats!

Kudos for your love and working these horses. Hundreds of years back, in Europe, they switched the horse for the steer in the fields but they found the horses to be so much better, cheaper and not difficult at all and the farmers returned to horses.

Jim, this showed the great bond between you and the horses. For them to stay calm and know that you would solve the problem for them shows great trust.

Whoah! That looked a lot worse than it was. Good thing they have age and experience, not at all traumatised by it. I can see why you got her straight back to work, such an experience must become "all in a day's work" if there is no injury. I had a couple of packsaddle incidents, mine were aged by then and I had bred them, each time they seem to know we are going to get them out of their fix, be it broken surcingle or major slip.

I've recently found your channel and am catching up on your vids, love how you train and handle your working horses and it's great that you show the mishaps and when things go wrong. You handled this brilliantly and I'm glad all are ok, your training and relationship with them saved this going from bad to horrific, the trust they have in you is impressive, I'm always impressed with how they listen to you. Thank you for sharing the mishaps, I'm learning so much from your channel :)
