As floodwaters invaded parts of Russia at the weekend, the residents of the ‘Osinka’ nonprofit garden partnership in Orenburg made sure a very special resident was taken care of – a horse. At first he was brought indoors for shelter, but when the waters rose he was brought upstairs, presumably given a room, and allowed to wait out the flood from the safe vantage point of the balcony. If this sounds like a potential explanation for the inexplicable ‘juan.’ meme, you’d be right.

Not content with being a recycled meme and the butt of ‘why is there a horse up there?’ questions for the rest of his life, the horse desired to escape, however horses have a weakness: stairs. The going up part is generally alright, but a combination of unfavorable weight distribution, inability to extend their forelegs down and terrible depth perception means that horses find going downstairs extremely difficult. The easier option is the crane, which not only got the horse safely down to Earth, but also provided for an even more inexplicable potential meme.
