If that doesn’t warm your heart I don’t know what could.don’t forget that he also bought arwen’s horse for her stunt rider when she couldn’t afford it awww#also don’t forget that for the rohirrim they put a call out for locals #bring a horse show us you can ride it and get a part in the battle scenes #and one women went out roped a wild horse and rode for a few days to set #and got to be a rider of rohanalso sort of relevant viggo also bought the horse that costarred with him in the movie hidalgo and subsequently took the horse (tj) with him to the red carpet premier. Also most of the Riders of Rohan are actually women because when they put out that call mostly women showed up with their horses and the costume team just stuck beards on them.if this isn’t the best post i don’tSo you’re saying the entire Rohan army could have killed the Witch-King of Angmar.Witch King: No living man can kill me!several thousand riders of Rohan: *rip their fake beards off*Witch King: Oh fuck…*screeches* We aRE NO MEN I was curious and yeah… Viggo actually did that!This is hilarious cus I know this one new Zeland farmer at my work and I remember him telling me his wife was in lord of the rings because she could ride well and I’m like welp oh here we are now lmafo -- source link
