Uh, no. And one kick can kill you

Horses can kick forwards, backwards and sideways. They can rear up to about 12 ft tall and stomp your head.

Plus they weigh about 1200-1600 lbs, although percherons weigh much more.

Does my prep time involve sourcing weapons? I think a sledgehammer would do the trick if I can hide out at the fight zone prior to the horse arriving then sneak attack.

But the horse gets prep time too

But the horse can't pull a trigger.

Or can it?

TUN DUN DUUUUUUUUN!

What is it going to get a sledgehammer too?

You really have spent no time around horses have you?

[–] Afghaniscran@feddit.uk 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah... If I'm honest, the time I've spent around horses is 0. I've spent a good chunk of time around sledgehammers though if that helps.

Maybe I'll just kick a pug as hard as I can instead, I reckon I could win that one.

Or sledgehammers. Or sneak attacks. 😂

[–] sizzler@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well stay clear and you'll be fine. Both horses and sledge hammers are sneaky enough as it is.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

Are you sure sledge hammers are the things you're thinking of? The big heavy things used to smash stuff? 😂
