Amazing Horse Rescue in the Netherlands

Did you hear about the horses that were trapped for 3 days on a tiny piece of land in the Netherlands last month?

It had the nation mesmerized, watching about 100 horses huddle against the wind and watching 18 of them die. First firemen then the Dutch army tried to rescue them, both unsuccessfully.

Four women on horseback rode out to the rescue. Here's a video of it. There is sound about a minute into the video. Enjoy.
