An amazing photo emerged on the Twittosphere earlier today of the Laytown Races. Now, the video of the unbelievable incident has surfaced on the internet.
The horse got startled, according to the video description by a crab, and leaped into the air before darting at a thunderous speed down the track. The animal managed to get fully airborne, raising all of its legs off the ground in one big jump. The jockey showed incredible nerve to mount the beast before it got up to maximum galloping speed.
There was also a lucky escape for the man in the white shirt who avoided the heavy hoofs of the kicking horse.
