I dunno if any of you heard about this story but there was some flooding in the Netherlands which caused some dikes to break so these horses got stranded on what became a little island. They couldn't use boats to rescue you them because they would spook and drown but they were surrounded by brackish water so they were getting dehydrated and starving while people were waiting for the waters to recede enough to lead them out. They finally found a path shallow enough but the horses couldn't tell, it all looked the same depth to them so this is how the story ended...of course with added music for some drama:
