I hope you don't mean that literally. In the last month one horse slipped
during the Hubertus-hunt, broke its neck and died instantly on nationwide live
TV. Another one at a regular showjumping had a hartattack or something and also
died instantly. The rider wasn't to blame in either instance. Surely the same
accidents could happen in endurance.
