I dare say Amanda Nisbet will think this video terribly tame. She leaps over people on the ground at the gallop and sets fire to stuff!

If a horse was taken there to be "schooled??" what would the insurance position be if,as seems highly likely, the horse is injured whilst being forced over loose tin sheets? I think this is a dreaful video and should "not be tried at home" for the horses sake.

I think it shows we all have different ideas on 'bombproofing' a pony!
He's certainly a very tolerant beastie, and safe in strange circumstances. Personally I think he looks a little confused at times about what and why he's doing things,but then so am I. If they think it will help find the right owner for the pony, and they don't appear to be harming him, then live and let live. I do have horror visions of what could go wrong though, but thats just the way I am!

That was also my impression of the bit being used

The bit looks like a wilson driven on a single ring which is quite severe.

What bit is it, cant make it out with the quality?

To me it looked like a green but totally safe horse who isnt going to get you into any trouble.

Seems to me it is a video of an overbent horse in a very severe bit doing lots of dangerous and fairly stupid things - and getting away with it!
