Default Whoopsie

Some races are just a little bit more "different" than others...
Like this steeplechase in France the other day. It starts of as a normal race, and then.... Well - slightly less normal.

Disaster starts around the 1:27 mark.

It happened again

"The confusion began when two loose horses forced the leading horse and rider to suddenly take up and veer off-course. However, the remaining horses and riders continued on, but were now running in the opposite direction of just a few moments earlier. Further craziness ensues as course officials have to scramble to move vehicles out of the way from oncoming horses"
