Belén Rodríguez falls from horse during beach ride

Argentine showgirl Belén Rodríguez was involved in a horse-riding accident on the island of Albarella. While galloping on the beach at dawn, the horse, named Pongo, tripped in a hole hidden by the sand.

The incident, captured by a drone and shared by Rodríguez on social media, showed her being thrown from the saddle and rolling onto the sand. Rodríguez appeared to avoid serious injury by using techniques learned from judo training in her childhood, which helped her absorb the impact. Following the fall, she checked on the horse and shared the footage with fans, noting, “Rule number 1: always get back up.”
