‘Oh Crap’ Monday

Monday is the crappiest day of the week, so it only makes sense that we make things official. Here’s our latest batch of reader-submitted “Oh Crap” photos and videos!

Jessica Josephson: “My horse (the bay) decided that since she was being ponied instead of being ridden, it would be much more fun to make a big splash in the river instead of calmly walking in. Thankfully, everyone walked out (mostly) dry!” (Click the images to open the gallery.)

Rachel Severinsen: “This is what I get for jumping my cutting-bred QH 3 feet.”

If you don’t watch this video of me being dragged around like a rag doll with sound I will be very disappointed in you. #fail #lunging #horse #pony #donttalkaboutit

Ellen Davis: “My horse took off fine but my knee gave way on take off! I stayed on to finish the course.”

Annie Elizabeth Aquino: “Fails from my lesson a few weeks ago. We got a bad distance after several attempts on my trainer’s part to get us to wait and the horse I was riding decided to show me how truly displeased he was with me.” (Click the images to open the gallery.)

My horse is insane – part 2 Oh and note @karinmlundgren’s contraption to keep my arms warm. Eventually we got through this normally, but as you can tell she was pretty hot!
