We humans have been around horses for as long as we can remember, and yet, despite all this time together, these incredible animals can still feel very mysterious. They\u2019re magical and move through the world with a quiet confidence that might make one wonder what they do when no one is watching. What is the world like from their perspective? And do they move about in a slow routine or invite more chaos when there are no eyes on them?<\/p>\n
Well, one horse<\/a> did us a solid and invited us to see “a day in the life” from his perspective, all thanks to a small camera attached to his halter. The result is that we get a quiet, immersive look at life through the eyes of a gentle giant. From slow walks to curious glances, seeing things from this viewpoint is like stepping into his world for a while, and it\u2019s mesmerizing. Take a look!<\/p>\n TikToker @todaywithgus introduces us to Augustus, a 13-year-old, off-the-track Thoroughbred Horse<\/strong><\/a> who participates in something his parents call “Gus TV.” This “TV” allows viewers to get a very unique look at life as a horse. The small camera attached to the halter offers a charming, sometimes funny angle.<\/p>\n Gus enjoys the frost on the ground, taking a few opportunities to lick the frosty wood on the fences before going for a jaunt with his mom to some fresh grass, stopping at the water, and then hanging out with some friends.<\/p>\n Related: Daughter’s Reaction to Learning Mom Bought Her Beloved Horse Is Too Sweet<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n In the comments, thousands of people were happy to pause, sit, and watch their favorite short-form TV show, and they had thoughts.<\/p>\n One person wrote, “So basically they spend their day snackin’, lookin’ for snacks<\/a>, longing for snacks, watching their owner, hoping they’re going to get more snacks, and staring at friends wondering what snacks they’re munchin’ on?! Did I understand correctly?”<\/p>\n Another shared, “I’m crying. Just him existing and thinking and doing things, it’s making me emotional.”<\/p>\n Someone else wrote, “I love how animals go around doing random things to entertain themselves. I\u2019m always amazed at how smart they really are when I catch them figuring stuff out. What a gorgeous baby! I wholeheartedly enjoyed this ‘horse cam,’ lol.”<\/p>\n Other comments included, “Gettin’ snacks, lickin’ ice, watchin’ frens. Gus livin’ THE life,” “Big fan of the gulp’n,” “I’m impressed with how he opened that treat box,” “I love that you just let him roam around,” “I love him so much,” “He\u2019s just a lil’ guy,” “This is the only content I need in my life,” and “The fact that he used to be so unable to sleep that his life was at risk and now he\u2019s happy and content. You advocated and fought for his right to a long, healthy life.”<\/p>\n One joked, “I hope the show gets renewed for season 2!”<\/p>\n \ud83d\udc36<\/a>SIGN UP to get \u201cpawsitivity\u201d delivered right to your inbox with inspiring & entertaining stories about our furry & feathered friends<\/strong><\/a>\ud83d\udc3e\ud83d\udc3e<\/a><\/p>\n If this is your first introduction to Gus, I have a feeling you’re not going to forget about him, and not just because of his cute videos of life from his perspective.
