I saw this story recently too and showed it to lots of people! The article is also online here (with a pic): http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/a...ure-Woman-forced-hold-head-breaking-neck.html

I wonder what happened to the horse?

 

[BarmyC]

That is horrific!!!

 

[PapaFrita]

Flipping hell she was lucky!!

 

[spotty_pony]

That's horrible! But amazing that she is back riding just seven months later!

 

[Snowysadude]

Wow, just wow, she must feel like the luckiest woman in the world after surviving that, let alone being able to ride again!

I saw this on telly! I can't believe she is back on board but fair bloody play to her
Hope she gets to where she wants to

Oh, she was on BBC Breakfast the other day with her physio, talking about the Formula 1 technology they used during her rehabilitation. They made no mention of the 'hangman's break' though... maybe they though that was a bit much for 8 in the morning!

I don't think I would want to ride again after that. I'd keep my horses but never ride...

Fair play that has just taken my breath away ... lucky woman ... just a reminder to all of us .. EVERY horse is unprecditable and accidents can happen to ANYONE ... take all reasonable precautions but remember riding is a high risk sport ! Good luck to her and hope she gets to wher she wants to as she does deserve it !
