Zero_Zero, sometimes you have to get around a horse...better around their back end then under their neck. "Never walk behind a horse" is something horse people tell non-horse people when they don't know what they are doing. The closer you are to the horse's butt, the least likely they are to kick (because they know you are there), the least likely you are to get hurt (because you are too close for them to make contact high on your body). Know the horse, the horse will know you. Still OP, sometimes unexpected accidents happen. Sorry about that, mate. Hope you're up and about again.

Haha well aren't you dumb... I think it's a cute one too...

cute cartoon

So... Did the horse have to put you down?

Is the OP afraid of horses?! WHAT ABOUT HER PARENTS?!? They probably had an uber heart attack.

They're not the ones who got kicked.

Trust me getting kicked doesnt make you scared of horses. Ive had many accidents with horses in my 8 years around them and still love them with my whole heart

#5 Cowboy: No animal is completely harmless if trained. I know of race horses that have spent their entire life training that have bitten off a man's fingers. Some horses are just skittish and react in negative ways.

I'd agree but I have a scar on the side of my face that says otherwise.All my life around horses and got kicked in the face.They are not harmless even if you know what you're doing

Horses are big animals. If you don't know what you're doing, they can be dangerous. If they're untrained, or frightened, they can be dangerous. In anything we do though, theres a risk involved. Horses have a high risk for us being injured. When you know what you're doing, you can pretty much avoid most incidents though. I mean, accidents happen and even the best horse person can get injured, but that doesn't mean that horses are to blame. It's like having a pet lion. It may like you, and love you, but if it's hungry it's still going to try to eat you. A horse may be trained, it may be respectful, but of it gets scared, there's still a chance it will injure you.

that a bit unfair-like no. 8 said it was bad luck that something spooked the horse. sometimes you have to stand behind them to groom them.

No, you really don't. If anyone ever tells you to stand directly behind a horse while grooming them, you should laugh and make them do it for you. You should never, under any circumstances, stand directly behind a horse (or cow for that matter). Any grooming or picking of the hooves is easily accomplished from the side.

How would you artificially inseminate a cow without standing directly behind her?

Even then, you're encouraged to touch the horses leg and talk to them all the way to the side and while cleaning it because it's simple to spook them. Perhaps the OP had the bad luck of the horse moving and kicking them, too.

A horse can kick to the side as well as in front though they usually don't have quite the amount of force that a kick straight back would have its more then enough to break bones.
