Imagine surviving on a deserted island. On your own. For a month.

Imagine, while trying to survive, attempting something nobody has done before. Ever.

Meet the inspirational Emma Massingale. The professional horse trainer from Devon, UK, is taking on her biggest ever challenge. Using only her incredible horse sense, she’ll try to ride two wild ponies who have, up to now, been virtually untouched by human hand. No tack, no ropes, no boundaries. Just Emma, six Connemara ponies and a 70-acre island off the west coast of Ireland. Imagine no longer. Life is an adventure.
