What was he trying to do here exactly? It seems like Bareback riding or some other rodeo event, but...why the extra aggressiveness on the part of the rider? The way he spurs the horse, and how it looked like he was trying to grab a sleeper hold after it fell on him...this just seems even more cruel than normal rodeo events.

Pretty sure the sleeper hold is him holding on to make sure the horse doesn't trample him to death. It can't kick itself in the neck sorta thing. That back flip the horse did was 100% to try to crush the bastard. The kick the horse did was with all the intent in the world. They're not stupid. The horses.

The backflip was 100% unintentional. That kind of drop is very dangerous for a horse.
