Today we are going to show you one of the most emotional and inspirational videos in the equine world. It proves once again that nothing can stop you if you are really committed to doing something. There are people who have dedicated all their life to horses, learning to ride even before they could walk.
But sometimes things don’t always go as you have planned and your journey may be interrupted for different motives. The man shown in the video below is one of them. He is an equestrian who loved riding more than anything, but after a terrible accident, he was paralyzed and could never walk again.
He decided that he still wanted to ride, which is actually very common for people with spinal cord injuries. They get into horse riding because it feels almost like you are walking. Even though you aren’t actually walking, it certainly feels like it.
Some people, like Amberley Snyder, even decide to get back on racing. She became known all over the world because she managed to win a barrel racing championship, even though she was paralyzed. It is definitely a long and challenging journey of recovery but using riding as a mechanism can help you defeat any barrier.
In the video shown below, you will see a paralyzed man who is riding a horse peacefully and looks very happy for having the opportunity to do so. We must say that his horse also deserves some recognition for being very gentle and kind to his owner. Watch the inspirational video below!
