How to 'ruin' a wedding! VID

never-mind ruining the wedding i cant help feeling sorry for the stallion getting a kicking in the nether regions.
surely the rider could ve prevented it happening in the first place !!!!!
how scary for the carriage driver (and mare) !!!
 
How awful for everyone involved.
Poor boy being kicked in his bits, even when he had got off. Hope the mare was ok, i thought it would be alright since his aim seemed to be off but then he found what he was looking for :/
 
how scary that must have been for a) the mare (just standing there and then getting that coming at her!) b) the driver c) the rider and d) the bride in the back!!!!!

The rider could surely have avoided the carriage a bit better!!!! Or having a stallion that does that been a bit more sensible about the whole situation!!!

Excessive nut kicking tho I do agree!

Did anyone else notice the heavy breathing going on (cameraman)? That freaked me out before anything the horses did

LMAO!! You're right! FTR, if it'd been my mare he was mounting I would've kicked him in the nads as well!

If the mare were in heat, she wouldn't have minded, if she hadn't been in heat, she would've beaten seven types of sh!t out of the stallion.
The stress levels of the OTHER 'participants' was probably pretty high though!

So he should've known that the mare was in heat? I think not. In any case not all stallions have the same degree of restraint. We have some that are complete angels and another that will look for a fight with any horse with a willy, gelded or not.

I don't know... if it had been PF on the receiving end, I think I would've done even more nut kicking!! Anyhoo, who says he got him in the nuts?
 
LOL! Oh yeah, like that would work

why didnt they get the bride out of the back when it all started that could have caused more trouble
and i hope they were insured as the pole went through a windscreen
looked like the stallion was being ridden as part of the wedding though
 
I have never seen anything so stupid in my life!!!

They should have gotten the people out of the carriage asap, unhitched the carriage horses and tried, right away, to regain control of the stallion. At least the guy who kicked it managed to get it back under control. It is a complete miracle the horses did not bold down that road!
 
Why did the bride stay in the back?! The rider didn't exactly try hard to get the stallion off though did she/he?

A classic example of why I took a car to my wedding! Everyone kept saying to me "oooo, you love horses, have a horse and carriage", my response: "I also know horses and know that the quietest can be unpredicable, I don't want to have to deal with that on my wedding day".
 
Wow. What a stupid situation.

a) Was the stallion with the party or not? I initially thought not but I'm not so sure with the riders being in formal looking attire?

b) Why the heck didn't the rider try to pull the stallion off immediately? Looks like the rider pretty much gave up straight away.

c) I don't know an awful lot about carriage driving - some, but not much - so can't comment on why they didn't all dismount the carriage, maybe it was considered safer than being on the ground with a loose stallion, but why they didn't unhitch the horses I don't know - I would have done. Where was the groom (groan - the driver's groom!)? Surely that wasn't the kicking man?

d) FWIW although not pleasant to watch, at least the kicking man was trying to do something to rectify the situation. And I thought I only saw him kicking him in the flank?

Thank goodness the carriage wasn't toppled, the carriage horses didn't bolt, and although it was a face it appears nobody was hurt.
 
I have to say how good the carriage horses were in the situation and yes, I would have taken my boot or whip to a stallion bits if it was that ill mannered and would not get off. You often see in the show ring, some one giving their stallion's old fella a good tap to get it put away and keep it there.

I know plenty of stallions who even stood behind a mare that is in season in the show ring don't behave like that - if you can't handle the bloody thing, dont have one or get its nuts off.

I am so glad that Cairo and Jemima were perfect wedding horses on my big day - didn't even do a poo whilst on duty and ate their minty cubes from everyone very carefully and really enjoyed themselves.

I'm sorry but, what? Its not ill manners, it's natural instinct and people underestimating stallions and not taking necessary precautions. I don't blame the stallion at all.
 
Sorry that was ill manners - natural instanct yes in an ill mannered, incorrectly handled stallion.

I am frequently in the ring with stallions, mares and geldings, and some mares are in heat. If you are aware your mare is in heat, you do try and keep a distance, but this is not always possible.

I have yet to see a stallion in the ring break free and try to hump a mare. That does not happen because the animals have been trained and handled correctly and know there is a time and place for covering.

I have friends with stallions and none of them would behave like that, even with a mare in heat by them. Should they start getting frisky, then yes they would get a slap on the offending willy to have it put back and to behave.

The chap did what was required to get the stallion to back off, and the other kick was to make him put it away and forget it.

If people think stallions should act like that and it is just natural, please never consider having one or take it out in public.
 
Fair enough the stallion was in the wrong and yes, do what ever it takes to get him off the poor mare, but, if the bloke kicked my horse in the nuts after he had got off, he would have had my knee in he's nuts.

I agree with Theresa that it's ill manners. It's perfectly possible to keep a stallion, even a breeding stallion, under control if he has proper manners. We have 5 on our yard and none would just jump a mare like that. They'd be impossible to take to shows if they did.
 
im sorry but all have to disagree with you
the stallion should of not been kicked
the rider should of had more common sence, if you can not handle stallions then dont have them a tall
simple as ,why punish the horse who is to train horses to not have ill manners the rider or trainer . man and rider need a kick where it hurts .

Wonder if the Bride got the same in the Bridle suite, or if the groom got kicked in the nuts afterwards as well, maybe some foreign custom
