Plot[]
A wanna-be cowboy named Wade wants to be big by becoming an actor. Being featured in a commercial for cigarettes and only riding in the background made him feel like the next John Wayne. Right after his Agent told him that he did not get a role as a film star, he wants to convince his agent that he can take care over every stunt without problems. His horse trips over a rock, causing him to fall back on the ground head first, transecting his entire neck and sending him to heaven so he can be a cowboy actor for eternity.
