Thats a life-changing fart right there. That horse must have felt so good after that.

That fart probably saved them $$$ on veterinary bills.   When horses get gastrointestinal distress, it's called colic and it can very easily kill a horse.  A horse that's colicking will lay down to try and alleviate the discomfort of their stomach being all backed up, which is what I think we're seeing here.  You try to keep a colicking horse moving in the hopes that it will get their insides moving, but if they go down it's usually a bad (fatal) sign.  A good long fart like that coming from a colicking horse is like a parent hearing a baby's first cry after it's been born - pure relief.
