Man rides horse into pub and falls spilling beer everywhere as Brits celebrate Jubilee

Pub-goers caught the bizarre moment a Brit celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubilee rides a horse into a pub - and ends up going flying.

Barely a few hours into the bank holiday weekend, one partygoer's antics in Burnley had locals shocked when an aspiring jockey tried to ride a horse into the The Angel Inn pub.

On Thursday June 2, locals caught on camera the moment a man is seen entering a pub on a horse which caused pints to spill everywhere, reports LancsLive.

The would-be jockey painfully whacks his head as he enters the pub - and then is sent flying after banging his head against the wooden beam.

Punters can be heard laughing at the sheer absurdity of the situation before the rider suddenly tumbles to the floor.

However, the laughter then turns to concern for the fallen horseman who had hit his head twice and knocked over a pint.

As the man fell, the horse can be seen casually surveying the scene as locals quickly went to see if the man was injured.

An onlooker, who filmed the shocking scene, said: "We were all having a good time, having a drink and a laugh and celebrating the Jubilee.

"This lad comes in holding his horse with a rope and another man on the back of it, riding it into the pub!

"He whacked his head on the top of the door frame, stumbled backwards and fell into this other man who, at the time, had a pint in his hand.

"He knocked it all over him, covering him in beer!

"Everyone in the pub was laughing and the horse was at the bar ordering a beer - well, that's what it looked like!

"After the video ended, the bar staff told him to take the horse out and we just carried on with our day.

''Not every day you see a horse come into a pub!"
