That is just a myth. Scripture says he was knocked down but mentions nothing about a horse.
If you are talking figuratively it means to shock, to surprise. EG: "When I told my son I wasnt his real father it knocked him off his horse!" If you are talking literally it means exactly what it says. EG: "The car didnt see him... it rounded the bend and knocked him off his horse!"
as long as it wants to be 'up'. You need to clarify your question . HOrses can live quite nicely with knocked knees. They learn how to get around.
That crack across my noggin temporarily knocked the sense out of me. That showed a lot of horse sense.
4 faults are given when you've knocked down a rail
It relates to the days of jousting, when the losing protagonist was knocked from his horse, along with his shield or 'crest' hence, crestfallen.
No,you walk beside the horse slightly in front of the shoulder.If you walked in front there is a possibility that you will get trod on.If the horse suddenly ran forward you could also get knocked down.
Horses earn points during the shows.Not after. When a horse enters in a halter show, the horse can win points for looking clean and well groomed. If you were in say a jumping class, a horse would get points for doing the wrong things. These "points" are called "faults." If a horse knocked a pole from the fence, the horse would get a fault. A fault though is really 4 points instead of one. So if the horse knocked down 2 fences, that would be 8 faults. And so on going up by four. But you DO NOT get points in a good or bad way when you're out of the ring.
For the knights, they joust each other. The first one who knocked off the opposing knight off his horse by lance will be the winner.
Knocked like a hammer hitting a nail. Knocked as hard as a wrecking ball. Knocked like a tree falling in the forest.
The word "knocked" can serve as both a verb (e.g. "She knocked on the door") and a past participle (e.g. "The door was knocked down").
Usually horses teeth wont fall out, unless the horse is very old, or has had an injury that makes his/her teeth get knocked out. I would say about 30+ years for a horses teeth to just fall out, if they fall out at all.
