If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle. If the horse has one front leg in the air the person died as a result of wounds received in battle. If the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes.

Again here: http://europeanhistory.about.com/od/europeasawhole/a/histmyths5.htm Does it really count as a myth if nobody had heard of it or Reyes just made it up? |
|
By:
Knew this when I was about 10. Sorry, Reyes.

By:
It's an urban myth, isn't it?
|
|
By:
I knew that, used it as a quiz question on here
|
|
By:
It is a myth, at least in as much as the statue in Durham market place of the 3rd Marquess of Londonderry gives a lie to the rules.

By:
