Firefighters Rescue a Horse from a Swimming Pool


(Video Link)

Yesterday afternoon, a horse in Mesa, Arizona escaped from its pen and wandered into a swimming pool. It was probably looking for water to drink. The horse was unable to climb out and became stuck.

After a veterinarian tranquilized the horse, firefighters with the Mesa Fire Department rigged a harness around its body and lifted the heavy animal out of the pool. By my count, that's 9 men in the video struggling to pull on the harness.

The horse was, thankfully, uninjured.
