Sounds like a horse, smells like not a horse.

Have you ever been riding your bicycle, but wanted to be riding a horse? Now you can! (more details)

While that is an excellent idea...that does not sound like a horse.

It pretty much does; listen carefully: scroll down to the fourth image--it sounds like the queen is riding out of the gates at Balmoral.

Anitanola: the sound may be reminiscent of that of a horse's hooves on pavement or stone but the rhythm is all wrong. It doesn't sound like a walk, trot, canter, or gallop - at least not to me, but it's been years since I've ridden.

To be more specific - if you ... *sigh* ... if you remember those scenes in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the guy with the coconuts is making a rapid 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3 sound, like that of a horse in a gallop. That's what I was expecting here but the gadget in this video is just 1-2, pause, 1-2, pause. I don't know how a four-legged creature could walk in that rhythm. If it were just a horse walking it'd be 1, 1, 1, 1 indefinitely.

It sounds like a drunken horse with fewer legs than average. And hooves made of coconut.

It's not a question of where it grips it. Previously

Needs some form of elderberry scent dispenser.
