A single mildly bumpy ride won’t turn you into an NFL domestic abuser, but over the course of 20+ years? And if you were on horses or in rickety carts from the time you were a squishy infant? Boom, curdled grey matter.
No horses = no war, no murder, just pure enlightenment and peace on Earth.
Beware the horse 👀
To be fair, you can get concussion symptoms from heading the ball too much in soccer. There doesn’t need to be NFL or boxing type violence involved.
Clearly, you’ve never headed a ball in soccer. That’s quite a good bonk on the noggin, and still nothing close to riding a horse— which, I feel needs adding at this point: you don’t ride a horse with your head.
But now I’m reminded of back in the 90s before they banned the flip-throw and kids were breaking their necks trying it.
You sure about that?
wtf even is this? lol
I googled “headstand on a horse,” and found this Daily Mail article

I played quite a bit of soccer back in the day, yes. It’s nowhere near the forces of a clash in the NFL, which is what was being mentioned as a typical example of what can give someone a concussion. All I’m saying is that it takes less force than many probably think. I’m not saying riding a horse gives you a concussion.
even still, the amount of force of the impact to the head while doing a header is far more than what you experience while riding a horse.
I’m sure it is. I never said, nor did I mean to imply, that it isn’t.
