A Funny Thing Happened

Wow! That really is one lucky horse. I bet it was scared silly though. That does remind me of Twister.

yup saw the movie ans twisters do funny things

That is amazing! The horse is a very lucky animal. I wonder if the horse will make it back to its rightful owner. It is really great to read the good stories from something as devastating as these natural disasters can be. And yes, I do remember the movie Twister. This story sounds like something that would have been in that movie. I am just happy to hear that the animal survived what must have been a very frightening ordeal. Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

Hi AmbiePam, So pleased to hear that the horse was okay. It is awful the weather you are experiencing over there and so many deaths too, so very sad. I wonder how many miles the horse was from. I have seen the film Twister many times but must be so frightening to live through one rather than see on the tv. Glad you are safe. Huggles. Ellie :D

Wow. Well, I guess if tractor trailers could be lifted up, so could horses or cows. But I never thought about that before. Poor horse. I'm glad it wasn't harmed. But I'll bet it won't like storms now.

its bit of jokes or funny incidence helps to forget sum of the disastrous situations.cheers.

This is quite interesting, and something more people would never believe without seeing it, and most people would think this is something that only happened in the movies. It is a shame to see so many lives and homes destroyed from this bad weather everywhere, and glad for the lives left untouched. But am sure this helped give the man in that house some hope that there is truly something good that came from this.

That's funny, my husband and son were talking about that movie Twister and the flying cows because we have had a couple nights of bad storms and tornado watches/warnings. Those are the good stories, too bad not all turn out that way..I have been praying for that family today, it really breaks my heart thinking of what they are going through right now..:'(

THAT is one LUCKY horse! Wow!! I know that man had to take a second look and still couldn't believe what he was seeing! LOL With tornatos, anything can happen so we're to expect the unexpected but gee, to THIS extreme? LOL Hopefully they're able to get the horse out without any problems. If only it could talk, it would have a lot to tell about.

That is strange! How far was the horse from where it belonged? Sounds like the animal got lucky to not have been hurt. Thanks for sharing!

This is amazing but I wish it had been the child instead

Yes, I did see Twister, and the flying cow. I guess that's a little bit funny. In the context of all the destruction. On how a horse survived without being harmed. Even if it walked or trotted to get there, it is still interesting that he/she ended up in a pool where it is presumably safe.

It's always nice to read feel good stories especially now that natural calamities are happening all over the world . Thanks for sharing. Btw, were they able to find the owner of the horse?

I'm glad that you're safe and able to take it light-heartedly. How is your neighborhood/community now? That is one funny story. I can only imagine the surprised look that man made upon seeing the horse. It could be sent from heaven - haha.

Wow. That is something else. I had not heard about it until now. I have seen the movie Twister. I'm glad the horse and the man were okay.

That's amazing the horse made it unharmed! Quite a miracle! However, all this talk of tornado's freaks my eldest out every time there's a storm. It's rare that one comes near here, though one came to a town last year within 20 or so min drive of here.

hi ambiepam yes that is a nice story amid the bad, I saw the aftermath of that tornado that ruined Joplin Missouri on the television and it made me shudder at the complete devastation it wrought. I had heard of cows that were transported by the winds of a tornado. I saw that movie Twister too.I remember seeing the results of a tornado that hit spearfish South dakota years back. the garage from one house was lifted and set down almost perfectly on the foundation of a house that was completely blown away and a baby carriage hanging in a tree.also wheat stems that pierced the wood of a power pole.So the man at least got a free horse out of the tornado. lol. oddly here in Southern California thats one thing we seldom get a tornado. Years back I did miss one that struck just outside of DisneyLand in Anaheime C alifornia. I wonder what that poor horse thought being lifted off his feet and then dumped a long ways from his own home.

oh im so glad it wasnt harmed. now have they found out who it belongs to? im sure they will be very happy if they survived that is lets hope they did. see if they found out.

I haven't been on MyLot lately, but I've been thinking about you and my other MyLot friends. Hope all is okay with you. I've heard many strange stories from my Mom about tornadoes that use to hit the farms in South Dakota. One hit their farm and totally destroyed the outbuildings/barn/pigpen/etc. But when they checked where the chicken coop was the hens were still sitting on their nests/eggs. They covered up the hens with a tarp they found where the sheep building use to be. The chicks hatched a week later. The house was moved about a foot off its foundation but everyone was okay. Stay safe!

Couldn't help myself from laughing when i read your story. Lucky for the horse to be still alive after he has experienced being sipped and thrown afterward by the tornado. I can just imagine the man gaping in amazement and happiness for seeing a horse in his pool. Perhaps the horse was so dizzy after being inside the tornado.
