The young amateur's first ride over fences almost went as well was he hoped. His spectacular fall has gone viral spawning dozens of vine variations. He was unseated before a jump and turned a full somersault after hitting the top of it. He walked away from the fall, with the horse also uninjured.
Ferguson, 18, said he had a "bit of a sore head but on the whole was absolutely fine."
