Johnny Depp almost trampled by horse at 'The Lone Ranger' shoot

London: "Pirates of the Caribbean" star Johnny Depp has revealed he was almost trampled by a horse while filming "The Lone Ranger".The 50-year-old actor was excited to pull off a number of action scenes but regretted his decision later after he slipped from a horse and was dragged for 25 yards while he held onto its mane, reported Contactmusic."We'd been running the horses pretty hot that day and went down a couple of paths. That all worked out fine until we changed paths in order to get closer to the camera car. Scout (horse) decided to jump over a few obstacles. So yeah, user error," he said.[caption id="attachment_939619" align="alignleft" width="380"] Reuters[/caption]"I was still holding on to the mane like an idiot trying to get back up and at a certain point you have to make a decision, do I go down and hit the deck on my own? Or do I wait for the hoof to split my face in two? So I decided to go down on my own and then, incredibly, the horse lifted its front legs and he missed me," he added.Even after this accident which could have cost Depp his life, the actor wants to buy the horse. "He could have crushed me in seconds. I was lucky that the horse's instincts were good," Depp said.PTI
