During the sequence, we were all riding on horses with all kinds of weapons in our hands. I was on horseback with two words in hand when my horse lifted its front legs and I got thrown off. I landed on my back and the impact was so painful that the first thought that came to my mind was, ‘God let me be able to stand.’ I have heard that back injuries could be very risky and getting thrown off horses would be very painful.”
