The video below is very unusual because it’s very odd to see a president on a horse race. There are a lot of them who ride horses for fun because it is one of their favorite activities, however, I never thought that one would participate in horse races and Turkmenistan’s President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow did.
He has been the president for more than 7 years and he is also one of the most passionate horse people. In the video below, you will see him riding a horse and a few seconds after, he fells off and everyone got shocked.
The security team was fast enough to go close to him and at the same time, keep the horse under control. The Telegraph posted this video because the state media has been silent because it was probably banned to post in on TV or Social Media, considering the fact that Turkmenistan is really conservative.
A lot of people commenting in the video were more worried about the horse than the president as they do not sympathize him as a politician, especially for the fact that the significant competitors were banned from the elections. Please watch the video below and let us know what you think about this situation.
