Yeah I grew up in the country so I've seen it done.. and the other person is right it takes a lot to do it and one person can't but if you get a number of people doing it at once it can be done. It's best not to though because it usually ticks the cow off pretty good and if you aren't fast enough you're going to get a hoof where you don't want it.

it's physically impossible to tip a cow. just look at the physics. a cow stands about 5 feet high, and most of its mass is centered at about three feet. an average ow weighs 1500lbs. to tip the cow over, you'd need almost 3500 ft-lbs of torque to knock it off ballance. No human could generate that much of an impact. you might be able to do it with a sturdy truck, but you'd seriously injure the cow, and cow's are worth a LOT of money.

What exactly IS it?
Excuse the ignorance...but it's not a pastime we're familiar with here in Australia (and yes, I do live in the country...)
But I have heard the term...
What is it?

I have. I didn't think it was true until I actually did it. It's not all it's cracked up to be. I almost got stampeded. Won't do it again.

No, but I know a girl who did, and I believe her.
