Just got back from getting thrown off my horse and this really makes me think how lucky I was. It was a mild fall but I’m still glad I’m okay!
Yeah I've had many falls and all the falls were only broken bones until the last one during cross country my horses leg caught the fence and he fell and I came down and he fell on top of me leaves me paralysed from the waist down 😔
@@laurenhanna1946 that so bad. I have fallen off many times but my worst injury is a fractured arm
@@laurenhanna1946 omg paralyzed ?
@@laurenhanna1946 I’m so very sorry I fell of a horse 11 days ago got my tail bone broken and sacrum i got lucky, I hope you are ok 😢
You just need to walk slowly and get bad injury which had last year, stepped on a black ice spot covered by slight new snow and fell backwards broke severe my right wrist bone splitted off needed surgery plate in and 11 screws took me actally 3months with intense physcial therapy at the Hospital to regain back 70%to been recovered but lost 30% of movements in my wrist and arm. I did ride too many years fell off too but never got such severe injury just like by walking.😢😢😢
At least she was really smart and it looks like shes trying her hardest not to move anything and keep her muscles relaxed
Smart
True
yeah, you can definitely tell she's someone who knows her stuff about these types of injuries
sixteen hand pony? Well, that would be a horse then.
My reaction too 😂
They are the exact words I said 😂
meanwhile me, a non horse person was thinking "thats a big pony"
@@jamiew.2718 Or, 'Huh, since when do ponies have hands?'
That's what I tought
Now THIS would hurt. Had close calls but this really makes me rethink my support for horse riding.
Well done to the crews who save many lives even in such a tough and deadly year.
Riding is way more dangerous than people think
I stopped riding as I had a terrible fall. It ain’t worth it.
I find it incredible that the chopper crew arrived on scene before a road ambulance crew. Start up and flight time vs dispatch and travel time of a road crew? I would have thought England and especially Cornwall was compact enough to have quick coverage by ambulance anywhere. Great video!
The traffic can be a nightmare & we have ALOT of backlanes 🙄
I do gymnastics and once my friend broke her arm, and the ambulance arrived around an hour later. It's terrible, but my coaches have good first aid abilities so she was okay while she waited. She's fully ok now which I'm glad about but she has one weak arm!
@@emmabrown868 Where abouts do you live? Depending on the dispatch system used such as MPDS, arm and lower leg fractures are not considered immediate response cases as they're not life threatening. Sounds cruel, but it's practical.
In Northern Ireland a good few years ago, my grandfather lay on the floor of his kitchen with police and a care worker present for upwards of 5 hours waiting on an ambulance. Because they keep being assigned and then rerouted to more urgent calls. It later turned out my granda had broken his spine and he was in a back brace for months! I appreciate that they do send ambulances to the most urgent cases (car accidents, heart attacks, etc) but an elderly man on the floor after a fall with unknown internal injuries should be reasonably urgent! :(
@@LovelyLawla That's extremely unfortunate. Sometimes too it depends on information the caller gives. I once went to a fellow who had his finger chopped off. He didn't want to alarm his wife so told here he'd just "cut his finger a bit". That's basically what she said when she rang for an ambulance (they didn't have a car, she didn't have a licence and he was in no state to drive).
So glad shes okay, maybe a back protector might help 🥰
I always ride with a back protector on
Back protectors also can me dangerous, some of them
I would never ride in a body protector they can make injuries worse
@@emeliaharrop4414 I'm an eventer and I've also galloped racehorses so body protector has always been mandatory
@@emeliaharrop4414 how?
That's the worst part of riding. Its not a matter of IF you fall its a matter of WHEN and how bad. Ive fallen many times and none of them were bad but I hope none of the ones in the future are bad.
This brung back memories when i was grooming my horse when i used to go horse riding and he stood on my foot when i didnt realise he broke my foot 😃👍
Aliiskiia- same, mine stood on my toes, broke my 2nd toe... funny, on both feet over the decades! This is making me so grateful I survived a rotational fall... on a school horse, not my own spooky TBX! It was new footing... & too deep. I questioned it before mounting. Should've trusted my instincts. Very, very lucky to be alive, but really suffering last 20 years though. Neck injuries.
I always wear safety boots when on the yard for this reason, one of our boys loves to throw his feet forwards when being led, making for quite a few close calls.
I jumped the wrong fence and broke my hand
Me sat here with my horse staring at me planning my murder
I’m grateful I’ve never had a really bad fall from a horse.
The worst I’ve had is a broken wrist from being launched over a 17.1h gelding’s head and putting my hands forward to break my fall.
One I rode a 17.2hh horse and he spooked (at a plastic bag) and bucked and I lost my stirrups and he went cantering up to a jump around 1.20m I ended up steering around the jump I got so scared luckily I didn’t fall off
what do you really do in such a situation? ive always wanted to try horse riding but horses seriously scare me
@@jaekawang There is not a lot you can do if a big, powerful horse wants you off. Pull your feet out of the stirrups so you don’t tear your knee ligaments and/or dangle from them because you will end up with a head injury. You can try and hang on, but you could get trampled. Try and break your fall with your arms - you’d much rather have two broken wrists than a brain injury. Horse riding is a dangerous sport, but what’s life without risks? Wearing a helmet and body protector, at the very least.
I don't know why the phrase "juggled some horses around" is so funny to me
I was just involved in a horseback riding accident wheee my L4 and sacral spine were fractured. I was extremely fortunate that I was able to walk and wasn’t paralyzed. It makes you think.
god i love dialects and accents sometimes. 5:17 "For example is the patient breeding?"
lol, sounds like a rather personal question haha.
Ohh WOW what a feeling !

16hh pony??? thats a full grown horse a pony is abt 14 and under hh
common sense would be to drop the first guy off and drive back for the second instead of standing there
A woman has fallen off her horse in Lego City. Hey!
Poor woman :(
wtf is this type of “gravel” called i’ve never seen it before
Ambulance has just arrived but you can see it in shot way before that at 4mins lol
I fell off my horse is 16.5 hands thoroughbred, I broke my tail bone and sacrum I’m so grateful didn’t went worse its been 11days I’m already walking slowly 🎉
16.5 hh?
My gelding stepped on my left arm once it was numb for about... well I'd say a good six months I have feeling there again now, but I would get sharp shooting pain if I tried to use that hand for the first month or so and if I knocked the numb area it would hurt
Riding on sharp stoney uneven ground with no back protector with already existing issues these people are smart huh
They’re not stones. It’s a soft fall surface, if you actually look closer you can see the surface she’s lying on is shredded rubber which is designed to cushion falls. Most riders have some prior injuries or pre-existing condition that could be exacerbated by a fall, but that doesn’t stop people riding horses. Body protectors are becoming more common in riding, but the vast majority of riders go without. It’s a dangerous sport, and injuries go with the territory. We sign up for it.
@@propertyofranger so if you know how bad it is and you have had injuries before why wouldn't you get the proper gear to protect you. I can think of many dangerous sports where the people protect themselves with equipment because they know it's dangerous. Makes no sense
@@Rachel0400 Do you hang out at the football videos and berate the injured players for getting hurt during a match? Even though football players wear protection they still get hurt all the time. They have pre-existing injuries and conditions too, but they keep playing. Absolute same situation here.
@@propertyofranger yes yes I do. Those football players don't go deliberately not wearing protection though they still have it wether it works or not for them
@@Rachel0400 Well you're clearly a lot of fun to have around. Keep moaning in UA-cam comments about how people take too many risks and I'm sure the entire world will change how they work just to satisfy you.
Quick question how do you feel numbness?
Depending in how numb anywhere from pins and needles to no feeling. If you ever lay on your hand you'll feel it start going numb.
it's more noticing the absence of feeling to stimuli
You don’t I guess...?
8:03 "you take care there bitch"
16hh is not a pony that is a horse 😂
The guy said breeding instead of breathing im not making fun but that was funny and when the girl said I'm single so it don't matter
How do you feel numbness
It's like a tingling feeling like pins and needle but depends how numb it is otherwise you won't be able to feel your fingers
@Jude Abdelghaffar You technically can. Pins and needles can be numbness. I get pins and needles feeling sometimes but I can never tell weather something’s touching the area without looking and seeing something touching it
Epic
This is why you wear a body protector
Yes and a helmet
What I've learned from this series is to stay away from motorcycles and horses .
😂😊سام است
Wait why did he walk instead
literally...
Not enough space in the car
@@ionixa there’s was a the whole back of the car tho
@@partv2218 yes but they needed space for the patient as well
@@ionixa ohhhh guess I wasn’t paying attention fully duh thanks
America Be like !*boom*! Stfu Yll survive after you have payed 1000000€ for a broken bone !!!!
Europe Be like *sorry me love*
Haha her hands go brrr
Just another reason to not ride horses
Everytime i feel of a horse i would jump straight back up but one time i was made to stay on the floor as i landed straight on my neck
And thats why children you shuld were iroman mask.
I feel sorry for the hourse
Why? The horse wasn’t hurt at all
Why do you care more about a horse than the woman that was injured? Do you enjoy human suffering?
All animals are innocent! I would help and save any animal before I would a human!
@@hmartinv The horse wasn’t hurt at all, care more about injured people than the animal that didn’t take any damage.
@@hmartinv so if your mother or sibling and pet dog was in a burning building, would you save your mother/sibling or your pet dog?
I would save my mother/sibling rather than my pet
@@mysticprophecy5395 Wow
Is the patient breeding?
A fucking horse?
Yeah people get paralysed from falling off horses
People have died coming off them
E
So she was just being dramatic then....
huh? falling off a hourse is always a serious medical issue and always requires a full assessment. This lady could easily have fractured a vertebra or her scapula, from the description and location of her pain and numbness. She could also have fractured a rib or two and punctured a lung.
That it turned out to be bruising is lucky.
