A spinning top is a toy designed to spin rapidly on the ground, the motion of which causes it to remain precisely balanced on its tip because of its rotational inertia.
Such toys have existed since antiquity.
Traditionally tops were constructed of wood, sometimes with an iron tip, and would be set in motion by aid of a string or rope coiled around its axis which, when pulled quickly, caused a rapid unwinding that would set the top in motion.
Today they are often built of plastic, and modern materials and manufacturing processes allow tops to be constructed with such precise balance that they can be set in motion by a simple twist of the fingers and twirl of the wrist without need for string or rope.

This is the moment a baby horse mimics a dog as it rolls over and nuzzles with its handler on the ground.

The young rider from Kentucky can’t stop smiling at the animal’s silly antics.
‘This is the best day of my life,’ she exclaims as the cuddling session continues.

The pony appears completely at ease and he stretches out his legs in a bid to further his relaxation.
‘Look at him,’ Bayne says to the camera as she pets the pony’s brown coat.
Finally, after almost a minute, the creature decides he’s had enough and he gets back up to four hooves.
Another adult horse is seen on the sidelines watching the heartwarming petting session unfold. To date the clip of Bayne has received thousands of hits online.
People love their animals. That is the understatement of all time. We have seen all creatures return the affection in various ways. We are always pleased to have our affection returned, and have come to expect the normal expressions of that affection from various animals.
Dogs wag their tails when they are excited to see us, and jump up to hug us or roll around on the floor when we get down to play. Cats purr and roll over to have their bellies rubbed and often sidle up to our legs to express affection. With horses we see nodding of their heads, a lick and recently we even saw a video of a man kissing his horse and the horse pecking him back!
But I’ve never see a horse do what this foal did; she shocked her owner as well. The woman came home from work and came to greet the baby horse. She came galloping up to the fence and was being very playful. The woman climbed over the fence and got a greeting that was so unexpected and unusual.
Watch this video to see the delightful interplay that ensued.
