Remember that viral video of a rider in a T-Rex dinosaur suit galloping across the screen? Well, hold onto your saddles, because trainer Michael Gascon is back with an even more entertaining sequel—and this time, he’s trading dinosaur teeth for minion goggles!
The Minion Meets the Paso Fino
If you haven’t seen Michael’s hilarious creations yet, you’re missing out on some serious equestrian entertainment. This talented trainer has mastered the art of combining comedy with horsemanship, and his latest video proves he’s got the skills (and the sense of humor) to back it up.
In this laugh-out-loud clip, Michael rides a stunning Paso Fino horse while sporting a full minion costume. The caption on his Facebook post perfectly sums it up: “When you steal the wrong get-away horse!”—and honestly, we can’t stop giggling about it.
Why Paso Fino Horses Are Perfect for This Performance
For those unfamiliar with this remarkable breed, Paso Fino horses are famous for their distinctive natural gait—they’re born knowing how to perform it! This smooth, rapid footfall is what makes their movement so mesmerizing to watch, especially when it’s happening beneath a giggling minion.
In the video, you can hear the rhythmic percussion of those hooves striking the ground in perfect succession. It’s absolutely hypnotic, and it’s clear why these horses are beloved by enthusiasts worldwide.
What Makes This Possible: Trust and Training Excellence
Let’s give credit where it’s due—it takes exceptional horsemanship and an incredibly trusting equine partner to pull off something this entertaining. Not every horse would remain calm, collected, and willing while their rider rocks a minion costume and creates viral content.
Michael Gascon’s ability to train horses that are this relaxed and cooperative is a true testament to his skill as a trainer. These animals aren’t just tolerating the costumes; they’re performing with grace and composure. That’s professional-level horsemanship right there.
