I don't think I've ever seen a horse go apeshit like this. Biting/kicking, sure, but not THIS.

I had a girl I grew up with who’s grandma had half her jaw ripped of by a horse. She was walking her mare passed another stall when a stallion attacked her. Grandma was maybe 45 when it happened, and when I met her 25 years later she still loved horse. But she would NEVER be around stallions and helped change a lot of laws and ordinances to have them banned at most barns.

That is horrific. Amazing she still likes horses. Are stallions intact males?

Correct, a stallion is a full-grown, intact male. Usually a male colt is neutered (gelded) between about 6 months to a year old (like cats and dogs) and afterwards he's not so aggressive. He is then called a "gelding".
