I don’t understand why Horses wouldn’t be afraid to charge into a wall of humans with weapons. And if they would do it, wouldn’t the first row tumble and all the other incoming horses would trip over them resulting in a domino effect?

You’re absolutely right. And in cases where a solid formation held their ground, they failed for exactly those reasons. A head-on cavalry charge was a psychological tactic, designed to try and get the enemy to break their formation upon which they would be promptly routed.
Alternatively, you could attempt to charge from their flank or rear where they were unprotected.
