I've never dealt with a horse that extreme or dedicated to being a jerk.
I also have never put myself out there as a trainer. People make horses like that guy, it's rare to see them like that "out of the box".
I used to hunt with a dentist who had a very dangerous horse. He was always off to the side of the field/group dealing with his "wild horse". One time I decided to go over to him and lean my very quiet horse against his "wild horse", knowing that it would probably quiet his horse. I rode up next to him and he said, "This is a dangerous horse, you don't want to be next to him". I said I felt OK about it and he seemed puzzled. His horse did calm down. It was then he rode away from me, and I understood he liked putting on his show of being a "great rider" of "wild horses" and I was ruining his show. People have very twisted agendas sometimes and they use a horse to create some idea of something I don't understand.
