Alabama Horse Talk recently covered War Horse-Birmingham, the broadway show scheduled to play at the BJCC Concert Hall March 18-23, 2014. On the morning of opening night, the media got a chance to watch "Joey" meet a real, live, police horse, to take photos, and to film. This video was shared with Alabma Horse Talk by Marcie Matte of Broadway in Birmingham. Thanks, Marcie!

War Horse: Hello, officer!
Police Horse: Mornin', Pinocchio.
War Horse: That was just mean.
😂😂😂
Police Horse: "I've seen a lot of shit in my job, but I never see three humans acting that strange. And whats this rack they carry all the time?! - Must be new drugs in town."
Real Horse: People are so weird
Virginia N ~ Exactly! 😂
"What are these stupid humans up to now?"
Horses are much smarter than people give them credit. The horse is like...ok...stupid humans! I know it's not a real horse!
Actually, if you knew shit you would like realise that the body language clearly shows the real horse's acceptence and respect towards Joey. They actually got on really well.
I fail to see the point of this very CREEPY introduction.
TreeOfLifeSword I'm guessing it's something along the lines of. "wow police horses are trained to take everything in stride"
TreeOfLifeSword very wierd
The horse puppets in War Horse are amazing. People were just curious about how a real horse would react.
When you have to go to the comment section to figure out wtf is going on 😕.
it took me a while to realise it wasnt a real horse lolol
You blind?
oh shut up!!
me too! it was until I got to the comments and notice its legs
Same
Realize
Real horse: wtf is that??!! k, whatever... I'll just stand here & be a real horse...wait for that creepy thing to leave 🙄
I don't know horses, but the police horse is highly trained not to respond to different situations like this. Loud noises, crowds of people, traffic, and a lot more. At first the real horse was curious and sniffed the puppet but afterwards he didn't care.
Elliott Smith probably because the fake one didn't smell like a horse as well
That's where you're wrong. I know you haven't had a lot of experience with horses but if you had, you would notice the body language shows interest and curiosity. The training is called bombproofing. This means the horse will not be afraid of these situations, kick or bolt off. However, this does not mean that the horse can have feelings and emotions. They seemed to get on well and became good friends.
Damn, my screen brightness was low so I didn't see the legs so I thought it was a legit alive horse that fought in war until 1:40
I got pinned. Well shit.
Ha same here.
I have the same look, and confusion, as the real horse is having. 😐
Police horse: “ oh I must be nice to this poor disabled guy with the 8 legs“ 😁
I don't understand what the purpose of this was about...silly as it appears, I enjoyed reading the comments, and the real horse response with dignity.
i saw warhorse on broadway. 10 minutes into it, you believe the horse is real. it was phenomenal.
Thank You for sharing this great video
What an amazing police horse! Man! As bombproof as you can get (well, u do want ur police horse like that). Anyway, good boy! Deserves a bucket of 🥕.
Real horse: "So you must be Sleipnir, huh? Guess Hiddleston wants to step up the game"
Cheers to whoever gets this.
The police horse looked really bored. Like he knew it was fake and was just looking around like " you're joking right?" Good police horse but there is to much on the poor things head. Does it really need all the straps and tie downs?
Kathy Collins
Don't mean to sound rude but it's called a bridle and the police officers horse has reflectors on the bridle (making it look chunky) and the bridle also has protection on it so if someone tries to shoot him in the head the bridle can protect it (in a way)
I don't know what you mean. It has a regular bridle on it's head and a headcollar underneath. Very practical.
'Course real horse knew it was fake. Smell and small body language signs play a big role in equine communication. You wouldn't be fooled by a puppet, right? Despite it looking (kinda) like a human, moving in a human-like(ish) way and even talking to you.
Kathy Collins Aight bud. Let's say I'm not a painter, but I go to an art show and start telling amazing artists how to do their jobs and saying their work isn't that good. You'd probably be confused and irritated, that guy doesn't paint! Why is he giving painters tips when he doesn't know anything about art?
Well. You just did that to yourself just now, buddy. That horse's attire was entirely practical. Most horses used on duty like that have a check reign, even. That horse hardly has any 'straps', just a simple bridle on.
@@L.C123 First of all, there's a bit. That is already abusive by itself. It's unnecessary and you can literally just use a hackamore. Second of all, the martingale. That's pretty much a tie down. I too don't mean to sound rude. But quite honestly, it's possible to go tackless.
HOrse is not convinced at all - no smell and that movement a little strange!
Aww Rember when they came to our Broadway theatre center in mo
All hell would have broke loose had the horse spooked.
I love the book!
1:46 Not that I'm an expert, but it is generally understood that when a horse backs up butt first toward another horse it is a sign of 'I'm going to kick you'. There are two people in there, watch what you're doing backing that thing up toward a live horse if you plan to ever do that again.
Horse: "Humans are fucking weird, how the fuck did they even domesticate us?"
Finally the people move so you can see the horse
Surrealist thing I seen all week. 😳
That Police horse really wasn't sure at first. Just shows how well trained they are
Ooookay. Didn't even finish this video.
I was so confused at first
That police horse was so confused.
Kept looking over, "Do you see this thing? It just doesn't smell right."
Ha ha the police horse knew straight away that it wasn’t real. He wasn’t even phased by it at all.
I've seen that puppet Joey it's cool
what a great horse. doesn't move even one leg
Mmmm... I only saw bad comments (? (sorry for the bad English). But if someone looked "War horse" the film(a very good film :3). The horse they used was that one... In some scenes and some horses really get confused (it's truth that sometimes they know its not real).
In fact, I think that is really amazing how the built that... ( I'm not sure if that one is the one they used for the film :v/).
The film War Horse, came after the book and the play....in the play Joey is a puppet. which is one of the reasons why it did so well.
The real horse is probably thinking this is the strangest horse he's ever seen. Why 8 legs, as he stares at it.
The police horse is absolutely gorgeous though.❤️🐎♥️
Is it a real horse or a robot?? It moves so real
This should be one of the police horses training.
Horses can count - so I guess he was thinking "this weirdo has 8 legs - and these people think I'm fooled"!!!
What's thaaaat It's so strange..
Wait, so those people really thought that they could fool a real Horse🤣wtaf
Real horse:....... Why???..... What???....
I’m glad the white horse knows the other horse was not real. If I read some comments here, it looks to me that some people didn’t know that the other house was not real, although it behaves unnaturally slow and also has 8 legs. I also think it was a creepy introduction. It’s like an android (current development status) meets a real human.
this is what nightmares are made out of
as well as they do it, they need to watch real horses being led around more often. they hind end is off just enough to make it look odd but the rest are pretty good. My horses would have vacated the immediate area if they saw that coming and they get buzzed by helicopters and airplanes lol I really do like the idea and the work put into this horse is just wonderful. Remember, hind foot lands in front foot print when they w/t/c. keep up the good work.
Sharon Nahwegahbow its really impressive though considering the puppeteers aren’t talking at all, the hind has to follow all the hearts movements as the mind and heart are improving. It really is beautiful isn’t it? I agree it’s so amazing.
Real horse is like, Really? Stupid Humans Lol
Thought the war horse was looking pretty rough, then realized it ain't real
I was wondering why there were so many legs.
Moieshia McGee ...because is a octopus horse.
I had Twilight app on, and thought it was a horse that had its front legs amputated after being in the war, and 3 people walking it... Was like, why haven't they put down that animal?
Real horse: Why is there a fake horse here? Oh well, Ill play along with the stupid people
Who came up with that?
Why does the Warhorse look like a mule?? It looks like something from a horror movie
The police horse was interested. He has been so well trained as to not move anyway. Like a buckingham palace guard. He has to see all sorts of stuff and not be reactive. Take "Joey" to a pature full of of duty horses ill bet they will know he isnt real but they would be more curious and playful
I have the same disinterest towards fake people.
I thought it was real!
Cant really see
Police horse is like --- you expect me to believe this thing is a horse??? Are you joking? It doesn't smell like a horse and it has no alfalfa breath. Nice try humans but I'm ignoring that collection of nuts and bolts.
Only in Birmingham Alabama... country asses ain't got nothing eles to do but come up with shenanigans 😏
I would have laughed my ass off if that horse kicked the snot out of the fake one.
real horse see's humans wearing horse "meat suit" becomes most obedient horse ever....
that pantomime is creepy af. why is this so interesting to these people?
Hahaha they have a fake horse and a real horse will they be friends
Mia Cannon -.-
,.......... they will need at lease 5 centuries or ten to come up with any thing as graceful and beautiful and useful as the horse ..! God still does it better.
whoa horsey whoa god isn't real, evolution on the other hand, is amazing
AlexWhybrow while I agree that God isn't real and evolution is badass (not referring to the ape to man evolution theory), you shouldn't say stuff like that. You give atheists a bad title and trigger the Christians!
+AlexWhybrow. You wanna bet your soul on that statement? We will all learn the truth when we die.
Niel hausgår
That brown horse it it wearing prosthetics? That brown horse dont look right. His coat looks off
Can an experienced horse owner educate me and tell me whats the purpose for this?
David Hernandez Says in title for Broadway show. They just took photographs is all.
At first I was like what the heck did they do to that poor horse from the movie? Looked like it came back from the dead! Then I made it full screen and figured out it was a costume. So now I’m wondering what the freaking point was. Waste of tax payer money right there!
Aaaaand the point of this wasss??.........
Wtf why would you guys do that to me.i was getting emotional and shit 🤷
Real horse must be as confused as he'll.
The real horse realized immediately it was a fake horse.....
Yeah that creepy mechanical horse verses real horse. Least the police pony's taking it all in stride
this is clearyn horse abose
willow seawood i think they were just joking which would be why theyre typing like that...
willow seawood, grammar is spelling. You basically spelled don't wrong.
chic No it is not. It is fine if it was abuse the officer would have stopped it... also learn to spell
Avery Powell like i said before i believe it was spelled like that as a form of a joke but i could be wrong.
Erin Kneply and Ruby Beeforest 3000 when the only comeback you have is to correct someones spelling
Wtf whats that?😱
pity the horse didn't bite him on his bum
Poor horse it doesn't have real legs, i feel very sad for him.
What is wrong with that horse?
Betsy Phariss the rust one isn't a real horse. It's a mechanical costume/puppet. There are humans in it controlling it's movements.
Everything lol
the police horse is saying you really want me to believe this shit well your wrong it ain't a real horse and I know it
You call that a war horse??? Friesians are war horses... and there's many other breed too.. But a horse made out of.. sticks? Is not a war horse?
Horse Valley //No no. War horse is an American movie about a thoroughbred who gets drafted into WW1 in Britian. You should see it. It's really good.
It was first a book that was later adapted to a play. Joey is a Hunter draft cross. The play had the horses as puppets and this is Joey's puppet. They later made the movie using real horses.
Hugh-mans are So weird.
#fakefriends
Police horse not impressed.
Sinister looking.
Wtf is that 😂😂
I’m i the only one who sees how weird this is
Rude people
Horse, meet the Uncanny Valley. Sorry, Humanity is not liable for any nightmares that follow.
This is stupid. Why do people do these types of things? That's what the real horse wants to know. what? you think he can't see those human legs, and can't smell those humans?
That was horse is fake
belinda clarke of course it's a fake horse....its a Puppet!!! for the play War Horse! that was a book first! kmt
thats a puppet you will see if you search up "Puppet Horses"
Ridiculous. Bothered that horse and the rest of the planet for this joke?! Pff
Doesn't smell like a horse so police horse is like piece of garbage not worth my time
