Have you seen these funny wins and epic fails yet?

That’s a lot to suddenly discover already – but one player has thrown a 13th tidbit of information into the mix.

Did you know you can tell if a horse is going to kick you?

In the words of user Takhar7, “My entirely flattened face thanks you for this. And also yells ‘f**k you’ for not telling me months ago.”

We’re not quitethatupset, but poor Arthur’s face still stings from our failure to understand horses in the past.

Before you assume safety, please note that otherRed Dead Redemption2fans have claimed that, while the ears do indeed indicate the horse’s temperament, you may still get kicked.

How are we ever meant to trust if pain is always possible?

But wait, there might be a way to save your poor face and pride yet; according to another player, positioning another horse “pretty close to the saddle bags” will stop the kick from happening.

We’ve yet to test this out for ourselves, but what have you got to lose? You’re going to get potentially kicked in the face either way.
