I think being in this room would actually kill me from the smell alone.
Funfact: there are several airlines specializing in horse transport. One of them is called “Air Horse One”.
No in-flight movie? Cheapskate owners couldn’t spring for business class?
Why are they flying horses, jesus, just pick up a rental horse at the destination.
Pegasus training
TOTAL PRIZE MONEY | 4.1 million CAD
Horse racing too
Thankfully not as much as there used to be. 6/9 tracks closed this last year in California alone.
#KillRacingNotHorses
we all know a rental
carhorse is the fastestcarhorse in the world.Just make sure you get the Altima to ensure victory, even if it is tempting to pony up for a pony
car.You can show a horse jumping without having to fly them somewhere.
Wait until you learn how expensive certain horses are
A syringe of cum from a decent race horse will set you back about €600 or more (if I remember correctly).
Almost as expensive as printer ink
😭
That’s the price for just a papered horse. A horse with a few wins and a good line will run you around 5-10k. Then a horse with even better set of papers/lineage and wins, will push into 25k easy. Rich ass people will buy a horse that’s won a lot for a few million, then stand the horse at stud with a vet and collect checks for years until it’s swimmers start slowing down. Then they basically drain the poor bastard dry and then sell or get rid of him. The horse world is filled with shit people, who don’t really give a fuck about the animals.
I can do that cheaper.
You have to be decent tho
That makes for expensive shots
I prefer rum anyway so it’s not much of an issue…
Ah, the classic Rum and Cock!
This is what’s wrong with this fucking world.
Flying goddamn horses, and people can’t afford medicine or rent.
At least the horses are working
Looks like economy class.
you know, we had a way of transporting horses way back in time; it was called “riding”. basically the horses have legs and they can walk … (/s)
Unfortunately they refuse to cross the ocean when you’re riding them.
I love you for this comment
that’s what a bot would say 🧐️
That’s the worst thing anyone has ever said about me. I was a little buzzed when I first commented so an upvote wasn’t enough appreciation. Anyway, have a human day!
sry i didn’t intend to be mean 😅 have a nice day too!
I divorce you for this one
I didn’t read the article, but I assume they have to customize all the controls so a horse hoof can still operate them. That alone would make the cockpit huge.
They were. Just Google huge horse cockpits
I didn’t read the article
What article? Isn’t this just an image post?
Don’t know; didn’t click.
No window seat? Restraints around their necks? Must be Spirit Air.
That must be incredibly scary for the horses.
My first thought is “what are they sedated on, and who injected them with it?” So sad.
My other thought was “why the heck did they need to travel somewhere?”
Let horses fly, life is short
Sport
Looks like they’re standing, not flying. 🤔
I know it’s weird because whenever I fly, I’m actually sitting.
Yes just like that.
The photo shows the inside of the giant cannon the horses are about to be shot from.
Just wait till the plane does one of those special nosedives
They might be hovering. Hard to tell.
Fun fact: This was in fact a parabolic flight. NASA was trying to figure out how horses would behave on the ISS and if they can be used as emotional support animals for stressed out astronauts.
I want this to be true.
Name checks out.
i want this to be false.
it would be animal abuse
I’d suggest a sloth, instead. I feel like a sloth would get along just fine in zero-G.
Alright Bud, you go ahead and argue with Commander Williams, why he is not allowed to take his emotional support horsie on that space station.
There’s a horsieeeee
Who’s heading for the Sun
He’d like to be back home
With a box of apples for everyone
Why…pray tell…would anyone want to know how horses would behave on the ISS? You couldn’t even fit a horse in that thing!
We’d better get a Space Cowboys movie out of this!
Shoot out at the meo corral.
I cannot imagine the vet bill were that true.
Space stallions.
The smell in there must be ungodly
Just wait until you have to peel back the gill liner during heavy check.
I choose to believe these are fake terms
You’d clamp that noiserator too if you’d seen the flack-end of a swot bristler take down a hummer at thirty thousand high
At some point, all that plastic covering the walls comes off during a long maintenance cycle, and there’s usually concentrated horse piss waiting for you where it meets the floor.
I’ve had it with all these motherfucking horses on this motherfucking plane!
I don’t understand, how do they get the food and drinks trolley past all that?
