Racehorse Sells for $2M

Rob Dyrdek shares his experience with horse racing, including jockeying a race and making a remarkable investment.

"When I got into horse racing, I jockeyed a horse for a race at Hollywood Park and won the race. I went on to own 12 or 13 racehorses, including a horse that got 3rd place in the Breeders' Cup that I sold for $2 million - and I had only paid $200 for it.

It was the scariest thing I've ever done. You're talking to a guy who's broke the world record for jumping a car backwards, barrel rolled a car, been attacked by a shark, a tiger, broken 25 world records on a skateboard - but the scariest thing I'd ever done in my life is jockey a horse at Hollywood Park. It's just you on the back of this horse, you got a hold of its mane, you break the gate, you're going 50 miles an hour on the back of this giant beast."
