Crash story:

Darren (my SO) was very new to riding horses when we first got together. I thought it was a perfect chance to test his skills and because i was a huge fan of wild hearts cant be broken the movie i thought it would be neat to see if he could vault onto my horse in a round pen. Heres the thing.. majik was bareback, she had a halter on and that was it. So I told him, watch her lope as she comes closer grab her mane and jump on. Seemed easy enough... So she went around a few times, he asked me to slow her a few times and i did happily. She was down to a faster then western pleasure lope and he went for it.. he grabbed a hand full of mane and jumped, she tucked her butt and down he went. She stopped, turned and looked at him as if to say "HAHA" meanwhile i was on the floor LAUGHING so hard I could barely breathe! It was the funniest thing EVER. He still swears to this day his tail bone is broken.
