Sometimes, there are just pieces of video that are so unbelievable; you have to see it first to believe it. Take this particular video that a group of tourists shot while they were cruising along a highway somewhere in Israel. These tourists, enamored by the sight of three galloping horses in the opposite lane of the highway, decided to record this extraordinary – at least for them – occurrence without knowing that it would turn out to become a video worthy of the YouTube Hall of Fame.
Not long after they started recording, an incoming car came into view and was headed straight for the galloping stallions. Two of the horses managed to get out of the way while the last horse, with no time to move out of the car’s path, decided to take on the vehicle head-on by trampling all over the hood and windshield before continuing on its merry way.
Continued after the jump.
Amazingly, the driver of the trampled vehicle – with the exception of a few bruises – managed to escape the surreal incident unscathed. Unfortunately, his car wasn’t as fortunate.
While we’re glad to know that the guy was alright, we still can’t help but wonder how he’s going to explain that to the insurance folks.
Well, the good thing is that both the horse and the driver is alright in that incident. I think it were partly the tourists fault as they might have scared the horsed by running side by side with them. I don’t know, the horse may have not seen the incoming car.
