Life's too serious

I decided to go horse riding. Although I’d had no previous experience I skilfully mounted the horse and was in complete command of the situation as the horse galloped along at a steady pace. After a while I got a little casual and my grip on the saddle came loose. I panicked and grabbed the horse round the neck shouting for it to stop. I started to shout for someone to help me as I slipped completely out of the saddle and was only saved from hitting the ground by the fact that I still had a grip on the horse's neck. I thought that my best chance was to leap away from the horse, but my foot had become entangled in one of the stirrups. As the horse kept galloping my head was banging on the ground and I was slipping into unconsciousness. I was able to muster one last scream for help. Hearing my scream, the Woolies security guard came out and unplugged the horse.
