ACTIVITY RISK CLASSIFICATION. Horseback riding is classified as a RUGGED
ADVENTURE RECREATIONAL SPORT ACTIVITY, and there are numerous obvious
and non-obvious inherent risks always present in such activity despite all safety
precautions. According to NEISS (National Electronic Injury Surveillance Systems of
th
United States Consumer Products) horse activities rank 64
among the activities of
people relative to injuries that result in a stay at U.S. hospitals. Related injuries can be
severe requiring more hospital days and resulting in more lasting residual effects than
injuries in other activities. Int.____
D.
NATURE OF RIDING A HORSE. No horse is a completely safe horse. Horses are 5 to
15 times larger, 20 to 40 times more powerful, and 3 to 4 times faster than a human. If a
rider falls from horse to ground, it will generally be at a distance from 3-5 feet, and the
impact may result in injury to the rider. Horseback riding is the only sport where one
much smaller, weaker predator animal (human) tries to impose its will on, and become on
unit of movement with, another much larger, stronger pray animal with a mind of its own
(horse) and each has a limited understanding of the other. If a horse is frightened or
provoked it may divert from its training and act according to its natural survival instances
which may include, but are not limited to: Stopping short; changing directions or speed at
will; shifting its weight; bucking, rearing kicking biting, or running from danger. Int.____
