Poor girl. It must be so scary to hear all these medics talking about leakages and brain damage! I hope she heals well. x

She got SO lucky. A kick from a horse can immediately kill someone. They can stop a heart and so much more. I hope her relationship with her horse wasn’t ruined.

This is what corona has got me into but I love watching these

Her poor husband, he so wanted to be upset, but his training kept him calm. You know that made her feel better.

The same thing happened to my sister! Some maniac driver got impatient and honked his horn, spooking the horse and causing it to rear, dislodging my sister and then falling on top of her. As he (the horse) struggled to get up, he struck my sister on the base of her skull with his forefoot. She leaked cerebrospinal fluid for twenty-four hours, but then it slowly dried up. X-rays showed only a tiny hairline fracture of the skull and she wound up recovering without any significant treatment. But it was *really* scary at the time!!!

We see ambulances every day and pay them no attention only when they have sirens and lights on makes you think how many people have been saved in these amazing vehicles. Too all Ambulance workers and Air ambulances Paramedics thank you. 💖💖💖

My coworkers 18 year old daughter just passed away from this exact situation :( it was an instant death but the family was horse riding together when it happened so everyone saw.

Only one night in hospital? She's so lucky bless her, and only two weeks to recover the feeling in her foot. Just goes to show that no matter how awful something is or looks, it is usually not as bad as first feared. When someone is conscious the whole time, enough talk, to cry or feel nausea etc, that is a good sign, specially with a head injury. Glad she recovered, and it is not the horse's or her fault, it's just a freak accident, chalk it up to experience and move on :) x

That doctor looks like an absolute machine

What a strong husband. He works a hard job and to hear your wife has been in an accident I’m sure that was so so hard but I’m so glad she’s ok❤️

Her saying “I can’t believe he kicked me” got me in my feels for some reason

i love my horses, and i couldn’t hate them for ever kicking me, but this is my worst fear. a spooking horse isn’t a good one.

This is how my dad met my stepmom. Her horse kicked him in the head and knocked him out cold. She kept in contact to make sure he was okay and then eventually offered to take him out to dinner to make up for it.

Each time I see an ambulance crew I say thank you for all your hard work, I'm hoping to become a community first responder

This really shows the emergency response personnel don’t horse around

Props to the husband for staying so clam, passive and reassuring in such a horrific scenario!

And people still say it isn’t dangerous, hope she heals well

I’ve been hooked on these videos lately; what a brave and professional bunch of folks. Thank you to all paramedics and first responders. Blessings and love from the USA 🇺🇸

Jeez what a lucky escape. That would be so painful. Glad you survived and it wasn’t much worse. Glad to hear you made a full recovery. Much love from Australia

The paramedics biceps is of the charts!

I'm friends with people who are into horse riding and they always make fun of me because I'm scared of horses. This video pretty much sums up why.

i just love how these guys are so proffesional gosh! amazing!

WOW !!! That was a miracle. So glad that she made a full recovery.

Poor girl! I’ve been kicked in the head, luckily I had a helmet on and it literally saved my life. Expensive hat in the bin but nothing compared to being alive 👌🏻 Exactly why the BHS advise helmets are worn even when working on the ground, majority of the worst accidents are from ground handling! Hope she recovered well & was able to gain confidence back around her horse!

I like how the paramedics joke around in the ambulance but are still consummate professionals. Helps keep things running smoothly and maintain camaraderie before going into a horrible situation.

This almost happened to me as a teenager, I was so lucky

I’m happy to hear Sinead made a full recovery ❤️

I had a life changing accident with a quarter horse, at a hotel, it wasn’t the horses fault, some asshat shot off a canon within 100 ft of us on a gravel path. Spooked quarter horse reared into tree and fell backwards on my back/pelvis and rolled off. Horses are lovely sweet kind animals, it’s their unpredictable spookiness that is scary.

Slightly unrelated to horses, but certainly related to farm / larger animals - my father worked on a dairy farm for 47 years before retiring. Other than the odd trodden foot he was fine. One August bank holiday he took our beloved family dog for a walk through a public right of way in a field he’d frequented thousands of times, the only rusty old sign on the gate stating ‘bull inside’ (never has there been any bull in that field). Unbeknownst to my father they had put a calving mother in there, but they weren’t visible until he was 1/4 of the way in the field. He wasn’t anywhere near them, but the next thing he remembers is being on the ground & being trampled on by a herd of cattle (around 12 cows). If it wasn’t for a passer by who saw the incident (he lived on the newly built housing estate just behind the gate) my father wouldn’t of made it. He came away with a punctured lung, stitches to the forehead, 3 broken ribs, & from the knees down to his ankles on both legs he had the skin stripped to the bone / muscle & spent 4wks in Addenbrookes having reconstructive surgery etc. Even after all of those years working with cattle.. they’re unpredictable. I once had a friend who became paralysed from being bolted from her horse (waist down). Beautiful animals but incredibly powerful too. So glad she’s ok & made a full recovery. She had a wonderful team on her side ❤️ xx

Yikes hearing that CSF was leaking is scary

I got trampled by 2 my horses ended up with a couple dozen staples in my head and concussion I was so lucky.Hope she is ok.

What a great team of paramedics!

imagine the pain she was in for the first 5 minutes conscious

That Doctor was a unit.

Thanks for the uploads really enjoy these👍

Poor girl. It can be so scary when you get an injury because of your horse. I hope heals well. x

Thank goodness she’s ok.

These are good people We need more of them in the world

i watched heartland and I work with horses and its therapy for me to. I am going to return next year and I have more days and time as well. I am very excited about it. I'm close to amy, or amber Marshall and she is an actress, but very informational and tons. that's when I most likely am able to most likely to calm the horses down and most likely. it depends on the energy vibes from me and what I give off, they sense it, and that's how they react is that energy off and from you, me and whomever else. I don't horses that are for races, bronx, or what not. it also depends on what the horses diet and what they feed to horses and what is put in their food, and diet.

When I untack, and tack up- basically, whenever I’m around my horse- I have my helmet on. Always.

To all Emergency flight crews, YOU GUYS AND GALS ARE HEROES!!!!

Back in high school, I was in cheerleading and we were having after school practice and while doing stunts, a group of girls dropped the flyer on accident and she landed on her neck and the room went quiet. She stood up and clear liquid just poured out of her nose!!!! we rushed to give her paper towels and she laughed and said she’s good. 👀 I think about her sometimes and wonder if she’s still good

My mum has two horses, while riding the younger one she was thrown off into a wooden cross country jump head first, and had bleeding in her brain. While riding the older one, another horse came up to her and kicked her in the leg and broke her fibula in 2 places and also broke one of her horse’s ribs 😢🥺 but she is better now and still riding 😃👍

About 25 years ago, a friend's mother was killed by one of their horses in a similar situation. The horse was spooked by something, kicked her in the head, and sent her backward head first into a concrete culvert. Horses have a tremendously powerful rearward kick, it's important to never stand behind them for that reason.

This happened to a childhood friend of mine. It was very devastating

I hate watching videos like these bcus every little feeling in my body I get I think there's something wrong 🤣🤣🤣

Wishing her the best honestly

I’m so glad shes ok

God I hope she’s ok I fell off a horse 10 days ago broke my tail,bone and sacrum I’m ok now walking slowly I’m very Grateful, I hope she is fine 😢

I’ve had CSF leaks 3 times and it’s BRUTAL!! Never been kicked by a horse in the head though, she is incredibly lucky!

This one hits really hard given my mum has 3 horses and has already some years ago had a fall that broke her collarbone, i know this was more of a freak accident but its terrifying to know one wrong move could potentially end everything 😖

I ran as a paramedic for 30 years and an ED/Trauma nurse...rural trauma is usually pretty bad...especially when its person vs animal...horses cause lots of head and spinal injuries...I've seen my share...this young woman is very fortunate...very...

Very lucky indeed, a great outcome.

I’m surprised she was able to get up and walk and recover from spinal injury 💟

My mom told me the story about a co-worker. The woman started getting a runny nose. She thought it was allergies until she had it for a few months. They couldn't figure out what was wrong with her nose So eventually they ended up testing the actual fluid. What they found was that she was leaking brain fluid. What had happened was she played baseball and she had been hit between the eyes with a baseball. That had cracked her skull and has started leaking brain fluid. This is diagnosed in the winter so she was leaking CNS fluid 4 months.

And that is why I like me some cats and dogs, they won't kick me into oblivion.

She's lucky it didn't kill her right off. Poor woman. My mom was kicked in her ribs. Horse wasn't aiming for her but for my horse but she walked in the wrong spot wrong moment. She managed to crawl quite a ways to the house & phone. Tough woman my mom.

God bless her

Dang shes a trooper

Prayers for her that's awful

Love these

I had a friend get kicked in her chest by her horse when she was around the age of 14. She had to be flown, overall was just fine. But wow what an event.

I seriously don't understand how someone could own a horse, no hate if you do, but I could never. I personally don't trust them and think they're better suited as wild animals.

CSF is Cerebral Spinal Fluid. I had a First Aid course that I remember from College and the straw colured liquid the paramedic is describing is exactly what we were taught. Basically CSF is what is supposed to help keep the brain lubricated, not really supposed to come out I don't think. But obviously it can do in accidents such as this.

My horse accidentally kicked me when I got too far under her while trimming her hair around her hooves. We were waiting for the farrier, she'd lost a rear shoe. Decided to get some grooming in while we waited. She went to move a fly off with her rear leg and caught me in the temple. Sent me sprawling. Ginger was ground tied, but she came over and stood over me until I could sit up. Pulled myself to standing by holding her neck. Thankfully, it was the unshod hoof that got me. I can't imagine how awful a true kick would feel. Really scary.

my math teacher got kicked in the head by horse too, he lost part of his skull who was replaced by acrylic, he spend 6 months in coma

I was kicked by my friends horse. She nailed me in my thigh. I heard the bone go. Then Im laying there trying to get the rest of the herd away from me. She didn't mean to kick me. She was aiming for a nearby horse. Horses don't mean to hurt you.

I know of a lady whose horse just up and kicked her in the chest when she was in the barn with him..killed her instantly - so tragic..the horse is not to blame as they just react to what is around them - he got spooked by something

Hope She's Ok

Anyone know what show this is??

Love these videosssss

Really hopee she really ok

After reading all these comments, I'm not getting into horses anymore.

I work with horses. I've been stepped on, bittten, thrown off, and kicked, and I know I'm potentially risking my life every time I take one of the young ones out of their stable. I just hope that a kick in the head or the breastbone have enough impact to kill me on the spot. I don't think I could live as someone with a disability and never be able to play with the horses again. Good girl for having the strength, knowledge and bravery to ring 999. Lots of us equestrians try to pretend to be braver or in less pain than we actually are. Hope she's recovered well and that this hasn't ruined her relationship with her horse or her sport.

I just got waaay to excited after reading the title. Hope everyone's well

Imagine calling Derriford local. Don’t have a serious injury in Cornwall because the government isn’t willing to invest in the necessary medical infrastructure.

Whilst thus maybe an isolated case it emphasises the risks and perhaps it's an indicator of caution that needs to be alerted to this type if activity.🤨🤔

always be cautious not to spook horses, you never know what will happen

That’s terrible I hope she is ok

She is really lucky normally a kick in the head from a horse could kill someone. Hopefully there bond is still ok x

Poor lady..

Idk why but the end “you got a tissue” made me laugh

Having my little toe internally severed and losing feeling in part of my foot after a horse stepped on it really doesn't seem super bad after watching this. I mean it wasn't super bad to begin with and it was also all my fault for not paying attention but it did scare my instructor

Poor woman, she must have felt so sick.

after watching these it makes me hug myself and it makes me feel weak and i just tell my hand or foot its gonna be ok, does anyone else do this?

almost happened to me lucky I blocked the kick with my elbow and only ended up with a cast

As a former horse owner, I know how unpredictable horses are and have been kicked myself, and twice nearly in the head. Once turning someone else's horse out in the field, and lunging my new horse who was very excitable. So I recommend wearing a helmet when handling horses, especially if you don't know them very well. And always keep your head away from a horses head, cause it bloody hurts, I got smacked in the nose by a friends horse, and I saw stars, luckily it wasn't broken, but it felt like it.

I’ve got a mate from my primary school who works with horses. I’m scared I will lose her

when I fractured my left wrist in 3! Places on my sisters birthday later on breaking it on Mother’s Day THEY DIDNT EVEN CALL AN AMBULANCE AND THEN MY BESTIES SISTER DID THE SAME THING AS ME SHE PULLED A MUSCLE AND THEY CALLED A AMBULANCE AND WAS PROBABLY TEMPTED TO CALL A HELICOPTER! life is unfair

Wow she is so lucky, I've been kicked in the hip by a horse lucky never broke anything but fuck did it hurt for WEEKS, I hope that does not put her off riding and being with her horse, she a stronge woman =)

I saw a show with a lady whose head was caved in by a horse kick. It was awful. She recovered with brain damage and reconstructive surgery

I’m crying for the guy damn

@7:09 🤔🤔🤔 Who is this person on the helicopter asking, “You can’t open the windows can you?” That’s VERY troubling!!!

This is why I'm so wary around houses. Powerful creatures

Jeez I can't imagine how bad things are if you're leaking CSF - I'd love to know how it escaped, if the dura was ruptured or if it just made its way out by sheer force and trauma to the ear area. jeez.

I remember this happened to a boy here a few years ago... he had to get his face reconstructed

I do walk behind some horses but there are many horses at our stables I do not walk behind, the horses that I do walk behind I trust not to kick or use their legs in any way towards me (without reason like spook or something). of course trust isn't enough and it can always happen and a spook can do a lot to a horse you wouldn't expect.

Christ, she took that hit like a champ 👀

damn...i remember my good friend, a jockey, got kicked in the face by a horse... his face went 2 inches inside.. isnt the air pressure from the height of the helicopter worse for that kind of injuries...?

My friend said when she was younger she got kicked in the head by a horse but she had a helmet on so was fine but just has a little dent in the side of her head
