MUST SEE!! Amish Horses Stuck In 15ft Well!!! Can we save their lives????

[@thewestnewyorker7269]

Forget All State. I would rather have Jim as my good neighbor.

[@lindadulin174]

Me too!

[@chuckcpc8774]

I have been a Safetyman for 25 years. I have seen this, but never with large animals, always with men. The young man and his Dad in the hole was deeply concerning to me. Heavy equipment operating on the edge of the hole can lead to a grave for all in the hole very quickly. I am not judging, I would have likely done nothing different in the adrenalin rushed time you spent helping. Over my years. I have seen this kind of teamwork and heroism. God was with you that day Jim, and certainly your neighbors and horses. Thank you for your cool mind and quick thinking. Sent with respect.

[@raincoast9010]

Such good thinking to hitch the truck to the skid-steer. Glad it all turned out ok, you are a good neighbor.

[@johnking8679]

Hey Jim, using some of God's wisdom can go a long way - good thinking !!

[@vickiulrich6694]

God is so good ALL THE TIME!!!

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

Yes He is!

[@donaldgibson3121]

Quick action on your part saved those horses. Good neighbors in times of trouble are heaven sent. I hope your Amish neighbors appreciate all you did for them.

[@l.horseman5704]

Thank the LORD. Everyone, including the two horses, helped the recovery cause they did not go crazy in the moment. Everyone did a impressive life saving job.

[@lianerogers2665]

You are my horse hero. Your amish neighbors are likely as grateful as I am. You are good neighbors.

[@maryjeannechessrown8482]

Horse heroes you and your family definitely are, God Bless! I LOVE your videos. Ane Horses! I could watch them all day! Horses are Amazing creatures.

[@bladewiper]

I have to agree, I think there was some divine intervention there, and a darn good neighbor. I am amazed how calm the horses were, a sign of good training and good genetics.

[@bladewiper]

Did they allow you to fill in the hole with the skid steer while you were there.

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

Our other neighbor with a tractor showed up and filled the hole in partially

[@deborahfromdcspetersoncity9213]

I'm so happy that they were okay after getting out of the well.

[@nicolassmith1278]

Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today? And how is the weather over there???

[@canvids1]

Just a great video of people who love there animals and would do anything to same them from a accident great work every one.

[@hallidayacres1245]

It's wonderful that both horses walked away without serious injury! Hope they filled in that well right away afterwards

[@artemiasalina1860]

You did a great job saving those horses. It was harrowing to watch them way down in that hole, but you guys worked like experts and got them out without injury. Bravo!

[@scottbriggs2721]

Hopefully everyone watching this noted how calm the horses remained. This is how the amish train there horses, if they get in trouble or are left too stand, they wait there till someone comes go get them. Great work jim!

[@marknasatka1891]

This is the most inspirational video I've seen in years. That's what neighbors are for. Thank you for sharing this. It's renewed my faith in humanity. God bless all of you.

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

Glad it was helpful!

[@troysmith3680]

Gosh I can’t imagine being in a situation like that. Glad you were able to help with the skid steer. Glad to see both horses walk away from that!

[@impunitythebagpuss]

Sometimes technology is needed, even in the Amish world.

[@tinadenike2357]

Thank goodness you were able to help & they weren't to proud to ask for help

[@TallWeedsandRust]

Simply amazing! God was surely there, for the horses and boys to walk away from that tragic accident and rescue. ❤

[@Zeke-yv3nw]

Great job helping out. This is real life things happen. Its ashame you have to be nervous about about posting this. The good Lord put everyone in the right place at the right time. Thank you Mr. Jim. Do they have the hole filled in yet? I feel so bad for this young couple. They seem to be trying so hard and so many challenges.

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

Our other neighbor filled the hole in partially with his tractor. Yes, they have had a lot of challenges. But they just keep going.

[@bettykremer1865]

God bless you, Jim, for your help! Things couldn’t have turned out better!

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

So true!

[@jemreandeau3583]

Oh what a blessed sight to see them both come up out of that hole, and stand on their own. So glad you were there to help, God bless you all. ❤

[@arkansas1336]

That was a great recovery! Thankful you were a good neighbor! The "scoop" you talked about is called a "slip" similiar to a wheelbarrow without the front wheel. My dad used one in the 1930's helping build roads.

[@348Tobico]

Hundreds of dollars of lost harness. Thousands of dollars in horses. Having loving neighbors---priceless.

[@cindyzorn8058]

Fantastic work awesome results

[@nicolassmith1278]

Hi sexy how are you and how is the weather over there??

[@mervjb809]

That was amazing!. Animals are so resilient. We called them a slip scoop. Well done Jim.

[@steveadams99708]

So wonderful that you were able to assist that young family in their time of need. And so wonderful that the horses are OK. God's blessings to you all. Good neighbors says it all!

[@juliahelland6488]

I hope people watching this video will realize farming can be very dangerous whether it's with horses or machinery and it's not a solo job. Neighbors helping each other helps keep it safer for sure. 💯 Staying calm is key too!

[@lindadulin174]

Absolutely!

[@ericbrufatto5371]

Genius rescue method by Jim, a great neighbor, bless you!

[@kellyellingson2335]

Great job! Wish you were our neighbours!

[@jda1961]

my grand dad was dump raking hay in the mid 1950s and the team spooked and took off with holding on tight, they came to a wire fence and one tried going through the fence and one did;nt, needless to say it was a big mess, those horses were so tramatized that they could not be worked again and thats when he got his ford tractor,

[@PumpkinVillage]

What a blessing the horses are fine and on one was hurt in the process. Thanks for the video. Accidents happen in the real world. Glad it all worked out in the end. Take care and stay safe, Al

[@johnsmith-xr6qy]

These are gentle, well trained and intelligent horses and people. Team work at it's finest. Cool heads working together. Congratulations on a job well done.

[@lindaarmstrongjackman9788]

You had an angel on your shoulder for this rescue. It is wonderful that the horses were unharmed, especially when one was standing on top of the other.

[@sawtoothbygeorge]

So glad the horses are OK!

[@valeriepowell1736]

Oh my gosh... how sticky. Amish, Us anyone. That's just a crazy mess Jim. Things can turn is a second. So glad you were there for them. That was an amazing rescue on everyone part..... God bless

[@eddieboswell6068]

My grandfather had 2 working horses years ago and one of them slipped into the river that was the back border of the pasture. The bank was about 10 foot down and we did a very similar thing with straps and a tractor to pull him out. After we pulled him out, except for being muddy he suffered no ill affects from this incident.

[@flyifri]

The horse continues to be one the greatest gifts that god gave man.! I believe this incident caught his attention through the burden of your hearts that each of you shared in this recovery. God bless you all.! That you caring and sharing Jim.!

[@MissP7197]

Wow!! Incredible work. This has made my day. I’m so grateful you were there to help. I can’t bear the thought of any other outcome❤️

[@JeriFortune]

I couldn't watch but a minute of the boys helping them. I started to cry. So happy they got them out and they are both ok. My family had horses when I was younger and when accidents happened it was always so frightening.

[@printaboul]

I did not cry but .... pretty close

[@garyarmstrong4597]

If I have not said it before you are an amazing man to participate into help these people and their horses out and do it so successfully too Jim . Good job 👏

[@suzannemomma]

Your community is an example for all of us. There was a problem and people helped each other. You can see how beautiful it is by the horses! They came out of it unharmed. Community is a beautiful thing we all need each other

[@joepond9587]

Accidents happen. Great job you and the Amish Folks did at getting them out.

[@danamelby4090]

Wow a job well done this could have been a major problem! Glad the horses are ok

[@lindatimmons3675]

Wow..... Thank goodness the horses and all the folks are safe. Amazing job well done.

[@bradhugo8973]

Jim you're the man!! Quick thinking and great team work!! We just witnessed a miracle!!

[@tamo9520]

Thank Heavens you were there to help them out! Thank Heavens they allowed you to bring your equipment into their world to assist them! You are an awesome neighbor! An awesome human being! And I'm sure they appreciate everything you do for them! I'm glad to see that everyone is O.K.!

[@dunbartuason5443]

Jim I dont know your wife's name, however you are the kind of folks that a neighbor would be looking for. Unfortunately, folks like you only come around once every 700 years. You folks are a certain breed of great human beings,I not sure what kind but definitely rare. Lord Bless both for the rest of your life.

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

We have a lot of good neighbors around here, we are certainly blessed!

[@maria168755]

Thank god you were there Jim , what a man you are , so glad the horses were ok 👍😱😱😰💕

[@racheleallison5237]

Just amazing. You are special folks. It's so nice to see a good outcome.

[@SusanA1056]

Such a happy ending. I'm glad you were all there.

[@lesliewatts2878]

Wonderful ending to one ugly situation. Horses and all humans are really fortunate the sides of that hole did not collapse. Here in the Ottawa region city safety officials are paranoid about trench wall braces. Considering the space confinement and the weights of those animals its amazing no bones were broken. Sleep well knowing you were a tremendous help to those good folk. BRAVO. Please keep us all informed about the well being of those two grand beasts. Thanks for being good helpful neighbours and a great example to us all.

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

Thanks, they are doing fine now

[@andree_nakita]

WOW was raised with draft horse and did allot of fair's it is always hearts breaking when situation like this occurs. So glad to see them jump up like this.

[@sarahburkdorf8338]

Jim and Brenda thanks for posting this video. A lot can be learned from this video and how you took those horses out of that hole. Some of us take classes on how to rescue animals from different situations, this can be a great help to to people like us and first responders. Thanks again love your videos !

[@jjock3239]

Emergencies are going to happen, and you did the best thing by staying calm, making a plan, and making it work. I have a skid steer, and that is one hefty load to hoist all the way to the top. I am happy you secured the rear to prevent a topple. I am grateful to know that the horses look fine.

[@maxstotto3594]

“In God we trust” but we sometimes rely on good neighbors for his miracles to perform and this appears to be a case in point! Great result.

[@kimfleury]

Amazing rescue! Good job, dear Good Neighbors 💪🏻

[@kenanibranovic6602]

Jim is a real cowboy, good job man.

[@outlawfarms6961]

When working with any large animal anything can happen.it part of working with them. Both horses did very well considering. Both stayed calm

[@maggiepatterson7949]

oh my heart! Unbelievable. Must have been so frightening when it happened. These thing happen. Thank GOD all is well. So glad it worked out!

[@hassolohse1058]

Great job. It great when people help other people in a time of need

[@br927]

Thanks for sharing! I understand it was something that happened, good thing they weren't heavies- Thanks for helping a neighbor in distress

[@robertschilling3308]

Well done. Getting that second horse on it"s feet was imperitive. That was key. For me...my first reaction would have been to dig a ramp by whatever means...summon as much help as possible and walk the horses up the ramp. I would only lift as a life and death situation to the horses. Very good job and glad to see it all worked out. 😃

[@Shernan83]

Wow unglaublich ein Glück das fachkundige Leute da waren ❤️❤️

[@angelmanning6381]

Amazing rescue thank you for saving them

[@debbiepitcher9806]

You really are a good person and neighbor, we new this before but you go on to show it again and again. 😋😋

[@nancyjohnson7744]

Amen. Thank you, Jesus Christ, for watching over us and your creatures and keeping us safe in all our ways. Many blessings

[@kenforbes9387]

Happy it all turned out alright, I’ve seen horses take a lot of punishment and be ok. A car hit a horse out in front of our house one night took out the windshield and quite a bit of damage to the car but when the horse was found later it was fine.

[@johnknoxville6736]

Awesome video, guys! Thanks for doing it. You guys are great neighbors.

[@yardfowl3149]

Amazing story, to God be the glory!

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

Yes indeed!

Well done Jimmy!!!!

[@Misskitty15]

Wow! That's a miracle!

[@CSCM_Counseling]

Praise Heavenly Father the horses are ok!!! I haven't watched the video yet, I'm just glad the horses made it out safely.

[@philiplowery9440]

good job gym for saving them horses you did a very good job I enjoy watching your videos and everything on the horses and stuff I really enjoy it keep making these videos cuz they are very good videos

[@lucdeslauriers1021]

My God! Thanks the Lord! What a sad story!

[@angeljustiniano]

jim i like learning about your horses

[@shirleyrice7093]

I learned what happened, then skipped to the end - the way I read scary books. I will watch all the way through now that I know all ends well.

[@shirleyrice7093]

I read this comment and said to myself in wonder: “wow! That’s how I think!” I felt blessed to think somebody thinks and does like me. Then I looked at the author and was disappointed to find is was me. It made me chuckle, but nobody liked it so probably other people don’t check on the ending if the book or the movie on video is too scary.

[@WallaceBrown-dj2gm]

A good fence around any object that can cause a problem is always a good choice but been there and done that

[@freddykonig4188]

So toll das ihr sie gerettet habt..👍👍

OMG you are GREAT!!!!

[@randallcrane2704]

Good job

[@lulamilnickel2390]

That was amazing

[@headonz]

Jim ,you didnt tell us ! Did you fill in the well with the skid steer ?? We had a bull go backwards down an old well !! Had to put a loop around his neck and the draft horse we had just popped him right out.lol . Then it was a scramble to get the rope off and run away :) These things happen.

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

Our neighbor who showed up after filled it on partially

[@chrisark8039]

Kathy Ark God is so Good and merciful

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

Yes

[@edcrego396]

I wish I would not have watched this I believe there come a time and a job that the horse should not have been put into a situation such as that plus what was two young boys in experience doing a job like that to be gin with ,,good animal husbandry needs to be reminded I do commend you on your quick thinking and were able to save these builtiful horses !!!!!.

[@MrWaterbugdesign]

Would make a good tee shirt. "Could be worse. Could have 2 horses in a 15' hole."

[@3madeamps]

the good good lord was looking out for them

[@elizabethtoledo30]

Could the hole be covered when their not digging

[@WorkingHorsesWithJim]

It was covered up after this

[@jessicadavis16]

Im so glad the horses are ok! I have to say I teared up just imagining the fear in the horses and their owners. I can’t imagine, wow, one on top of the other. Truly a God send that you were able to help. God has His hand in protecting the two horses especially the one on the bottom. God bless you all.

[@nicolassmith1278]

Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today? And how is the weather over there??

[@KelpieMomma]

I'm glad the horses were able to walk away! Accidents happen with big animals all the time, even when you'd think nothing can go wrong or have done something a million times. Especially when working with animals, as well trained as they can be they're still animals and will react in unexpected ways. This could've been much, much worse and I'm glad it wasn't!

[@MC-uf1ts]

God bless you Jim for helping save the horses.

[@thewestnewyorker7269]

That is incredible! When you first started talking I thought you were going to say they lost the horses. What a miracle! How often does a horse fall into a 15 ft. hole? And then to survive it? Amazing.

[@jackiewilson6249]

And why is there a 15’ well?
