It wasn't all that impressing except for the fact that there were 100 or whatever, because the horses could of done that by themselves if they wanted to...
horses are living in group, problem come out in lack of leadering, same as human, when we find no leader or a wrong leader be found, that's disaster.
by the way, i like the music here
Man (or woman) just giving a little help for a spectacular result.
Horses always needed to be led.
Great music, Chariots of Fire by Vangelis, in the movie by the same name.
I honestly don't understand how this is at all amazing. The horses were too dumb to know the water was shallow enough to walk through; I think if anything this just shows that horses are stupid animals.
Retro....the cheers are for the folks, and their stirring success in saving all those "stupid" horses. Horses, like so many other "social" animals, do indeed require a leader, so I expect the issue was whether or not the
?herd/?pack would accept as leaders those women on horseback.
Which brings up another issue....where were the men?
I also wonder at the number of horses running free in Northern Holland...particularly since most all that region is below sea level and, I suspect, prone to floodings like this. I guess I just have never thought of that area being like the "wild west".
Anyway, the video was nicely accompanied by the "Chariots" theme which kind of evoked an emotional response.
It was very clever of the women to establish themselves as the leaders and rescue the horses. You can tell they were in a terrible panic on the island.
