How do “Stunt Horses”( I’m assuming they must be a thing) fall safely, especially with a rider? It can’t all be CGI…

I’m just really hoping it’s not as bad as it looks.

Yes, there are trick horses, and one of the tricks you can teach them is falling down. Usually it’s a trained response to a flag or a light that’s not in the shot. Yes, it can be very dangerous for the human riding the horse, but they also know about the signal and push themselves off to prevent being hurt.

There’s a famous trainer named Rusty Hendrickson who trains a lot of them.
