Are horse legs actually fragile, or does it take a lot of effort to break one?
If fragile, I think people are overcomplicating this. You’ll probably get fucked up in the process, but once the horse is crippled your grim deed is done. If they’re not fragile and you’ll need to seriously wrassle them down to exert enough force, you’re almost certainly dead.
Does my prep time involve sourcing weapons? I think a sledgehammer would do the trick if I can hide out at the fight zone prior to the horse arriving then sneak attack.
You mean like, fighting a horse by punching it? No that fucker gonna kill you. You might win if you have a spear and you know how to use it. But if it gets to you with it’s hooves you’ve lost.
Now if you can convince the horse you’re a lot scarier than you are, it might do what you want it to.

Only reason why they don’t kill us on sight after all we’ve put them through: for all their amazing physical prowess, they’re also easily spooked idiots 😂
You can literally put a plastic bag on a stick and shake it at them and they will go wherever you want. Cuz it’s spooky, but not all that spooky. It’s like shaking that thing means you’re the master of the spooky stick.
Horses are like Big Derpy Cats. they bite, easily spooked, overly aggressive for like no reason, violent to kin and kinship, and will literally murder you if you socked one in the kisser. But sometimes they are sweet, gentle and cuddly.
I used to help a buddy clean stalls growing up, horses are anything but majestic lol
You’re most welcome. It always stuck with me because as a child I had a horsey friend whose mother had a massive skin graft on one arm where a horse had tried to remove her jumper. Every time I see one of those vids of a feral stallion just tossing a foal in the air with it’s teeth it reminds me of it :( I love horses too, but yup they are very powerful animals.

Uh, no. And one kick can kill you
Horses can kick forwards, backwards and sideways. They can rear up to about 12 ft tall and stomp your head.
Plus they weigh about 1200-1600 lbs, although percherons weigh much more.

But the horse gets prep time too
But the horse can’t pull a trigger.
Or can it?
TUN DUN DUUUUUUUUN!
What is it going to get a sledgehammer too?
You really have spent no time around horses have you?
Or sledgehammers. Or sneak attacks. 😂
Well stay clear and you’ll be fine. Both horses and sledge hammers are sneaky enough as it is.
Are you sure sledge hammers are the things you’re thinking of? The big heavy things used to smash stuff? 😂
Blooming thing snuck up on my back muscles that’s for sure!
Yeah… If I’m honest, the time I’ve spent around horses is 0. I’ve spent a good chunk of time around sledgehammers though if that helps.
Maybe I’ll just kick a pug as hard as I can instead, I reckon I could win that one.

All a horse has to do is pinch you with it’s teeth, then all your skin can come off.

Thank you for this enlightening and horrifying imagery. I will keep it in mind the next time I’m near a horse.
