It's hi ho Silver awayyyyyyyyy

Johnny Depp, may claim to be part Native American but he can't seem to get the hang of riding a horse and filming has been halted on The Lone Ranger movie while Depp recovers from the latest in a long line of falls from his horse. Producers are concerned about Depp's health. The actor's insistence on performing his own stunts caused the 49 year old to suffer a violent fall last month and recently there have been several additional falls. Apparantly one of the falls was so severe that a source close to the movie called it a near death experience.

It is thought the producers will now insist on a stunt double doing Depp's riding scenes.

"I'm lucky to be here. I've done a number of films on horseback and I've taken a couple of spills but this was a violent one. I had a good relationship with the horse, which was named Scout, and when I look at the tape I can see that Scout saved my life.
I went down badly and I was dragged for 25 yards and in the end the horse just jumped over me and clipped me with his back legs." Johnny Depp
