He is my fourth horse, so I would say I was "experienced".
I would be angry.

If you didn't see the video before it was removed, it was the typical driver's view from inside a race truck in central Baja (boojums and cardon
cacti)... a single track dirt road... and he came upon some horses who were running (either already or when they heard the truck approach).
The truck never got closer than a few car lengths and maintained a safe distance while he followed the running horses. They did not step off the road,
even when wide clearings were passed, until a couple minutes elapsed, then finally moved off the road and into the desert.
He obviously was pre-running and did not come to Baja to find horses and chase them. Some here obviously think his calling the video "chasing horses"
somehow made him anti-horse... as it would seem by their reactions here? Maybe a dumb choice of words on his part?
As a horse expert Paulina, if you rounded a bend and see a couple of horses running the same direction as you... would you:
a) Follow them until they got off the road, maintaining your distance?
b) Stop and have a Pacifico while they hopefully ran away?
c) Abandon your day's event and go back to camp?
d) other
If you stopped for a beer, and come upon the same horses up the road, how do you get them out of the way so you can continue with your life that day?
They could be on the road that goes back to your camp!
Thanks Paulina! Happy Halloween!! |
