How does a T-Rex reach the reins with such tiny arms? Screenshot via Gascon Horsemanship/Facebook |
If you’re anything like me, chances are you’ve spent most of your riding time wearing appropriate barn clothes and boots. OK, so there was that time I was wearing shorts and sandals, but that’s another story. I have never, though, dressed up in a dinosaur costume and gone horseback riding. Michael Gascon, however, has.
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages step right up. It is my profound pleasure to announce to you we have discovered the ninth wonder of the world! For your sheer entertainment, amusement and amazement, I present to you Jurassic Paso Park!

Fox 8 Live reports that this isn’t the first time the stallion has appeared on camera; he once played alongside Luke Perry in the film A Fine Step, with Gascon as Perry’s stunt double. “He’s the most beautiful Paso I’ve ever seen,” Gascon told Fox 8 Live. “And he’s just a character.” We’d add that he’s pretty brave, too. Not every horse would tolerate a giant T-Rex on their back.
“Jurassic Paso Park,” as Gascon has dubbed the video, showcases how well-trained Tito is, and yes, it is pretty funny too.
Saw this on FB yesterday, it’s awesome! What a great Paso Fino Stud! Couldn’t ask for a better disposition!
OMG this is hystrical! What a great minded horse!
This is so funny! What a great horse!
T-Rex sure is a talent boy, he can ride horses, snowboard, and ski! What next T-Rex! Sky dive!
That is to funny! Love T-Rex and this is a great stallion to put up with him!
Just gotta love T-REX!
T-Rex, you do get around! Just saw you at the Jersey shore surfing too!
T-Rex, you sure are talented! This and last weekend you were at a rodeo riding a bull! Very diversified you are! LOL!
