Al Gore decides to try horseback riding, even though he has had no lessons or prior experience. He mounts the horse unassisted and it immediately springs into motion. As it gallops along at a steady pace, Al begins to slip from the saddle. In terror, he grabs for the horse's mane, but can't get a firm grip. He tries to throw his arms around the horse's neck, but he slides down the side of the horse anyway. Finally giving up his frail grip, he tries to leap off the horse and throw himself to safety. Unfortunately, his foot has become entangled in the stirrup, he is now at the mercy of the horse's pounding hooves as his head is struck against the ground over and over. He is moments away from unconsciousness when, to his great fortune, Wendell, the Wal-Mart greeter, sees him and unplugs the horse.
But, what the hell, Al Gore invented the horse to begin with.
