A Florida nightclub has been shut down after a video went viral, showing a woman and a man riding a horse inside Mokai Lounge.
According to Miami Herald, the video surfaced on Thursday, just hours after a horse carrying a man, a woman in a string bikini, was lead into the crowded space. The horse then dropped to the ground, bucked and tossed the woman off its back.
