FW: [RC] [RC] Fear when mounting/dismounting - Mike Sherrell

That's the "leapfrog" mount. Almost as crazy as the "jumping from the roof
onto the back of your horse" mount a la every cowboy movie from Hopalong
Cassidy to Zorro. Those stuntmen must wear cups like hockey goalies.

".....I've always wanted to try that sort of scissors leap from the ground
directly into the saddle you sometimes see young bucks do in movies, but I'm
afraid I'd freak the horse...."

Years ago we had the best little Shetland pony for our boys.  One day while
she was in the pasture eating grass, a neighbor boy who thought he was hot
stuff, ran up behind her and vaulted onto her back.  We all cheered as she
bucked him summarily off.  That is the only time, outside of Gene Autrey
movies, I have seen that mount done.
