Please tell me this is a Monty Python sketch

 

Please note: No real horses were harmed in the making of this video clip

 

While Russia is invading Ukraine and China is displaying its miltary might in the Pacific, the rest of Europe is "hobby-horsing" and competing in the recent Finnish Hobbyhorse Championships. And they do it all with a straight face! It gives new meaning to the phrase "horsing around".

If I saw one of these girls on a hobby horse in a forest, I wouldn't mock her - I'd asphyxiate with laughter! They may be physically fit, but mentally? Is there a parallel universe somewhere where real horses prance around with a half a human mannequin strapped to their backs?

 

 

May I suggest we play this 10-hour YouTube clip while we wait for a giant asteroid to put us all out of our misery? Surely, it can't be soon enough!

Please do not reply to this post until the full ten hours are up!!!
