Man kicked off reality show for punching a horse in the face.
One of our favourite interview questions to ask celebs is: ‘would you ever punch a horse in the face?’ But we never expected someone to follow through (snrk). But a contestant on the unfeasibly named Full Metal Jousting has quite literally punched a horse in the face, and been booted off the programme for doing so. Coming in the same week as another Luck nag carked it (following an unwisely attempted backflip) we have to ask if television is no longer a safe place for our clippety cloppity friends.
We don’t have many details about the incident but we can tell you that the assailant was 27-year-old Landon Morris who hit the animal in its neighing face, after it stepped on his foot.
Landon’s jousting coach on the show, which airs on The History Channel (so it’s not just stuff about Nazis and Romans then), described the equine attack as "one of the stupidest things I've ever seen." Which only made us want to see it more.
However, despite losing his place in the competition, the pony puncher maintained that he clobbered the colt “for the right reason”. Which begs the question, what are the right and wrong reasons for punching a horse in the face?
Right reasons for punching a horse in the face
It looked at you funny
It had an annoying walk
It was being a dick
Wrong reasons for punching a horse in the face
Just for lolz
Political differences
It stepped on your foot
Sorry, Landon. You will not joust on this television channel again.
