Stallion Efeito in First Knight

I have a nice lady coming to see my Lipi who is for sale at the weekend. She used to own an Iberian Stallion called Efeito who died suddenly when his stable was struck by lightening, he was 25. He stared in the film First Knight as one of Richard Gere's horses. Anyone heard of him ?

No but now I want to watch the movie so I can see, our car was shook by lightning today we thought it hit us but I don't think I would be typing this message if it did, but it was scarey!

A car is one of the safest places to be if you get struck. The steel structure forms a Faraday cage that channels the current around the passengers.

Trying to remember if I've seen First Knight. I don't think I have.

Oh that's good to know, it hit right as we were pulling in to the tanning salon and then it hailed hard right after, when we went in it had knocked the electricity out and they were re-booting the computers.

I can't remember of I have either but husband says he did a long time ago, I surprized he doesn't have it, he has like practically every movie ever made.

Haha, it's fate!
And that's exciting Lipi, hope that she and your sweet boy click! I know it's hard for you to say goodbye to him. <3
