If you’re a horse lover, chances are that you’ve recently heard about the “Call Your Horse Like A Boss” Challenge on the internet. The challenge is quite straightforward: call your horse to see just how he reacts.

Even though it sounds simple, it has already delivered a couple of great videos, such as this one right here.

In this challenge video, we see a stunning, majestic Belgian horse perfectly doing what is expecting of him.

The horse is simply wandering around, but then his trusty rider blows a single whistle. The point is to see what happens next. Will the horse come to his owner, and in what manner? The more points on the ‘like a boss’ scale, the better.

While some may believe the challenge is pretty dumb, it can actually show the beautiful and special connection a horse can have with its owner or rider.

“Not everyone can hear the silent language between a horse and a rider, not everyone can trust their own lives with a 1200 pound animal, not everyone has the guts, blood, sweat, tears and dedication needed to be a part of this world. But, equestrians are no ordinary people; and horses are no ordinary animals. The only one who truly understands the world are those who are a part of it,” an unknown author once wrote.

Every horse owner knows that the bond between them must be special, as they have to put a great amount of trust into each other. In some situations, the rider has to put his life in the horse’s hands and vice versa.

After all, falling off a horse can result in a very nasty injury – and it can even get worse if you get trampled by these large and majestic animals, who can weigh upwards of 1,200 pounds.

There is just one rule when it comes to the “Call Your Horse Like a Boss” challenge.

You have to call your horse only with your voice, or you could also use your whistle. You can’t use any sort of food, treats, or anything else to capture their attention. You can also only call once.

In this challenge video, we’re definitely looking at a very special horse.

It’s an absolutely beautiful animal from Belgium, who is seemingly enjoying the range during a rather chilly morning – typical weather for the country.

Even though the video is shot at a distance, a lot of people in the comments section couldn’t help but notice the sheer size and beauty of the horse, truly amazing to look at.

Belgian Draft Horses are known to be one of the largest and most powerful horse breeds out there, and some of them can even weigh more than 2,000 pounds.

In the video, as soon as the rider whistles, the majestic horse definitely noticed the call.

There’s a little bit of a waiting period, and the Belgian Draft needs to process it a little bit. After a couple of seconds, this majestic animal begins to make its way to the rider in an absolutely graceful gallop.
