Bull gets the zoomies in an arena after watching an equestrian show-jumping horse leap and decides to show her that he can do it too: 'Just a big puppy'

It's not just your puppy that gets the zoomies occasionally - most mammals can get the zoomies if they're excited enough. But have you ever seen a bull get the zoomies before? Turns out all it takes is an equestrian show-jumping horse and one very happy, very large "puppy".

When you think of zoomies, you probably think of a tiny puppy that's running around the house destroying everything in its path, or a kitten that's climbing on anything and everything at 3 o'clock in the morning. But, don't know if you know this or not, but there are a lot of animals that can get the zoomies. And the best part? It looks pretty much the same no matter if it's a puppy that's 6 lbs. or a bull that's 2,500 lbs.!

Some animals watch greatness from the sidelines and feel inspired. Some watch greatness and think "wow, that's beautiful." And some show-jumping horse gracefully leaping over arena obstacles and immediately decide that the law of the species, training, and general bovine expectations no longer apply to them.

This bull is clearly in the third category.

In the video, the equestrian horse does what horses to best: an elegant trot, clean jumps, and a vibe of "I was born for this." The bull immediately comes into view with the energy of a giant toddler (a very, very big one). He takes up space and makes the arena his own by saying "I can do this too!"

This may be a short video, but it's full of happiness. It's the perfect thing to start your morning with, and possibly, to end your weekend with. Joy is something you can take from anywhere, especially if it's authentic. And there's no happiness more authentic than the zoomies.

Was his form perfect? Probably not. Was his confidence absolutely unmatched? Yes. And in Animal Comedy math, confidence counts for at least 87% of his score.
We love a creature who refuses to stay in their assigned lane. The horse may have had training, grace, and years of discipline, but the bull had vibes, enthusiasm, and the unstoppable belief that he, too, could become an arena superstar.

Cows basically are big puppies with hooves. They have the same emotional eyes and absolutely no understanding of personal space. They get the zoomies, form friendships, and ask for scritches. Bigger body, but same soft little “love me” energy.
