Horse interrupts woman's dance with a swift kick in viral video, netizens say 'kickass performance'
Dancing amid nature's beauty might seem like the perfect way to create a feel-good Instagram reel. This, unless, of course, a horse in the frame has other plans. In a now-viral video from Kuri, a picturesque village in Nepal, a woman is seen dancing, filming it to possibly make a Reel. A horse that was, until then, grazing nearby, minding its own business, suddenly loses its cool. As the woman inches slightly away from the animal, the horse unexpectedly charges at her, then turns around and kicks her using its hindlimbs, knocking her to the ground. The moment was caught on camera and shared on Instagram by @official_abhinav with the caption, 'Shocking! Girl Dancing in Garden Knocked Down by Horse in Nepal kuri village.' Since its upload, the clip has taken the internet by storm, racking up 11.9 million views and over 150 thousand likes. A post shared by Abhinav Dhoble (@official_abhinav) While the woman appears unharmed, the incident has left the Internet amused. Comments poured in with viewers cracking jokes about the unexpected guest star. 'Kickass performance,' one user said. 'That was a live and kicking performance,' said another user. 'The horse just wanted to recreate Anil's painting from Welcome,' wrote a third. 'He wanted to show his moves too,' said an Instagram user. In two separate but equally bizarre incidents, horses made unexpected headlines – one in central London and the other in the United States, both last year. In the first case, a tourist in Westminster, London, was bitten by a Royal Guard horse while posing for a photo outside the Horse Guards Parade. The viral video showed the woman standing beside the ceremonial horse, with a guard mounted on it. Without warning, the horse lunged forward and bit the woman's arm. The guard was seen quickly pulling the reins in an attempt to restrain the animal. Moments later, the woman clutched her arm in visible pain as bystanders rushed to help her. In Baker, Louisiana, just north of Baton Rouge, four individuals were charged after allegedly riding horses through a Walmart store. The footage of the incident showed the group casually riding down store aisles on horseback, surprising onlookers. Local authorities later confirmed that the individuals involved had been identified and faced charges for their behaviour.
