These people found themselves in the horses normal river crossing spot and they were very calm and respectful, while capturing this great video of Stewart and Nirvana’s bands.

In all my years filming Wild horses, this was a first! The Wild horses found us! And what made this moment so unforgettable was how they appeared. There was something almost dreamlike about it, one by one they stepped from the shadows of the dense willows until the entire band was looking at us. They stood there quietly, studying us with curiosity, while we were trying to figure out how to get out of their way. Not knowing these horses, we weren’t quite sure what they wanted to do next, or planning on crossing the river. After a few minutes one stallion began pushing the band down the embankment into the river while another stallion stayed behind keeping a watchful eye on us as the rest of the band crossed the river. Watching them move through the water in a long line felt like a scene from an old western movie. 🎥
