Prince Harry fell head-first off a horse during a polo match and was uninjured, but nevertheless threw a bit of a temper tantrum afterward. Harry angrily threw his mallet to the ground, ripped off his helmet and punched it. But afterward, the 25-year-old royal said it wasn't the fall that angered him. "I met this nice businessman at dinner last night who offered me $50,000 for Sentebale [the charity he co-founded with his mom] if I fell off my horse today," Harry said. "His wife turned ‘round and said, 'That's a bit harsh, you should give him $100,000 if he stays on.' " Unfortunately for him, Harry shook on it. "So when I fell off, I threw down my mallet and shouted: 'What a waste of $100,000!'" The horse was not injured.
