[QUOTE="Keren, post: 602450, member: 3195"] Back when I was still in high school and doing so much steer work, the one of the things I said to the kids was 'dont ever let go' if they run away, because boy I have learnt the hard way how difficult they are to break in if they get away. Anyway, I must have said it more than I thought to them, because one day I had them leading the steers out on the football field, and one of them took off like lightening. The kid that was leading him, promptly lost his footing and landed hard on his belly, arms straight out in front of him, the steer is tearing around dragging this kid behind him and the kid is lying there screaming to me 'I'M NOT LETTING GO! I'M NOT LETTING GO!'. The steer then headed home for his stall, well the gate to our little complex was open but right in the middle was this great big rock that no one had yet managed to move. And the steer, well he could go around it, but this kid was heading, well, head first for it. And this rock was BIG, bigger than the kid. So he's yelling 'I'M NOT LETTING GO!' when we all started shouting 'LET GO! LET GO! LET GO!' Kid ended up letting go before the rock, still not sure whether he heard us, saw the rock or just couldnt hang on any longer :D [/QUOTE]
