Great job by the Life Boat Crew. The little blighter would have perished otherwise. Did he fall down the cliffs?
Watching the 2nd video (thanks for posting that), 2 things struck me. I guess LBCs don't get called out very often to rescue horses from the sea but their job would have been a lot easier if they had been shown beforehand that it's easier to catch a reluctant horse by, when you get within reach of it, loop the leadrope under (or over) and round the neck so you've "got it", and then introduce the headcollar from underneath the jaw, rather than approaching the horse face-on with a headcollar which is going to make it back off.
But great job by them, swimming and wading in tidal water on rocky shores with a frightened pony kicking out is a big ask.

bonne amoureux traîne le soir, nous avons essayé de passer le mot dans le forum d'élevage que les chevaux sont de fabrication ont contaminé, du sang pollué. Ils ont fermé le forum de reproduction pour nous faire taire. Aidez-nous dans notre mission, jetez vos bras en l'air et crier «réjouissez-vous, pour les trolls sont les saveurs du cheval de sport», crient haut et de haut et d'être entendu
