To me it looks like a learned behaviour, he has such poor balance that the horse already knows how to dismount him lmao
Lmao
Sounds reasonable.
Laughing my air out*
Notice before the first fall his hands actually slipped and janked the horses face down. A new trick has been added it seems!
FR LMAOO
He didn't fall off, the horse just didn't want him on.
Who would want such a bad rider on his back
Devin Smith Wrong. He has severely bad form thats why he fell. They horse didnt evwn do anything. Trust me, if that horse wanted him off he would be bucking, bolting, rearing etc.
😂😂😂
Makes sense my horse wants me off 90% of the time 💀
I made your 999 to 1k!
the horse was hardly moving and he rolls off...twice
Ganpignanus .Gianni that's how most falls happen 😂 I've fallen off literally getting off my horse
Katie Vitiello , I fell off getting off my horse once too! LOL!!!
Why do we do it lol! I fell off trying duck a branch which brought my horse on top of me too!
😂 yeeeeessss . . . . 🤭
Wow!! Thought he was a better rider...
may be a prince, but isn’t much of a horsemen 😅😂
Indeed lol
Not at all. But I have to admit I have never seen him to be good in anything. I am sorry to say so. 🙄
@@ritahorvath8207 same
That’s because trying to hit the ball with a stick while riding is difficult. He actually rides quite well. We rode around Stowe, Hampshire, about three years ago, on my sisters horses. He was not bad.
Not much of a prince either.
The poor horse didn’t do anything and he slipped off, he was probably confused!😂
The horse put its head down when Harry was leaning forward. The horse is so small compared to him (as polo ponies are), that he just slipped off. 😂😂😂 Also the horse seems rather clever, and was doing it in purpose.
Harry has been caught numerous times being exceptionally cruel to his Polo ponies so I admit I was pleased to see this 'payback'.
.
I can imagine .... 🐎
No he hasn't, Carol. There was an incident where one of his polo ponies was bleeding, he stopped riding when he noticed it, the vet commented it looked to be caused by a collision as his spurs were rounded and the horse was fine to continue after being cleaned up.
Mmm. No. I don't think that's true. It's England. They have incredibly strict rules based around animal welfare. Regardless on who it is. Prince Harry may be a bit of a drip, but he has care for many of his animals who all receive the best treatment out there.
Absolute rubbish troll
How he just doesnt care about the horse and lets it run around/be caught by someone else, like wtf😂
I don't think he really knew what to do
but lol
Ik I was thinking the same thing lmao
It's not that easy
The horse felt unbalanced,he really was far too big for that horse;both in height and weight.
Hé isn’t too big, I can ride my 1.17 pony and I’m 1.57, with vet and everything checked
Simply not true. He fell off cause he has no sense of balance. His height and weight are fine. Its only in the last 50 or so years that everyone thinks they need to ride a 16.2 hand monster horse... thanks hollywood
@@JCElzinga no, it’s because it was around that time they bothered to sort out animal welfare acts. He’s too big for that horse.
He's definitely not too tall for it. Can't make much of a guess at either his or the horses weight but even if he is over the 20% rule, the horse will be fit enough to cope with one match and he won't be its usual jockey. The pairing isn't to blame, he's unbalanced and pulling on the mouth so the horse can unseat him by pulling back.
JCElzinga i just like riding taller horses, personally. Being 5’8” and having two pony-based riding schools is not too fun haha, I look big on all the horses I’ve tried
He's way too big for that horse. Horse just wanted him GONE😂
Polo Ponies are usually pretty small, some are larger but typically they are about 15-15.2 hands, they are nimble and agile for the sport and only ridden for short bursts before they are switched out for fresher ponies, they aren't ridden for the whole game.
@@109367 lol..guess that pony was telling him his time was up..
@@109367 Yes,but Polo ponies should and in good games are balanced by horse and rider discipline and weight. Obviously that Pony was far too excited and fresh for him as he hasnt been on a horse in a while most likely (I can tell from his balance!) and that pony should be fitted to someone smaller and able to keep on. I understand they aren't ridden for the whole game but it is still a period of time x
the horse clearly hates him lol
Really? The prince leaned forward and the horse backed out from under him. This whole event is overhyped. This ain't no rodeo.
There is a clip showing Harry viciously kicking his horse after a loss at Polo..that speaks volumes for his character and temper.
I saw Charles slapping up the neck of his pony screaming at it calling the animal stupid. Tempers must be inherited and those games must be bloody important and the pony blamed not the rider.
yeah where's the clip
Bullshit
@@georgiafrye2524 where is the clip of Prince Charles doing so ?
It was sevetal months ago on Utube, one of the Prince Charles biographies and his habits, life etc.
This is pathetic!! If he had any clue how to ride this would not happen. And when he falls off he lets somone else get his horse. Drama queen 🙄
Drama prince 😂🙃
He has no clue how to handle many things. Lack of brain cells, class, sense of duty etc. etc.
@@ritahorvath8207 LMAOO FR FR
literally every single rider falls off I have only been riding 3 years and I have prob fallen off like 50 times lol
Drama prince 😂
How did he fell like that lol. I am an horse rider too and his posture was all over the place
Ikr lmao just look at the way he’s wobbling like a jelly😂
maybe its not his usual horse cant sync the speed pace he used to have?
He’s a bad rider. The reins are too tight, ripping the poor horses face off and the horrible, massive bit is disgusting. As an equestrian, this makes me cringe.
As Long As The Horse Is OK
The way the horse backs away from him after he fell off makes me worry about what usually happens when cameras aren't rolling...
Same oh one of the other comments said there is a clip of him kicking his horse JUST BC HE LOST A GAME!!!!!
Maybe but too me it just looks like he doesn’t have a bond with the horse because the horse didn’t run away it just walked off. My mare is very hard to bond too. if I Fall off She will walk or trot off😄
Scratch that it trotted away😂
@@that_weirdperson7803 that didn’t happen there’s no evidence of that. And the spur cut was caused by a collision with another horse.
Love how people knowing nothing about horses give comments like that. Horses are not dogs, they aren’t bonding that much, also they are running animals, they run away simply because they can
That first fall 😂 didn't even see the second fall the first time had to rewind and that guy imitating his fall lolol
Is it mean to say that he can’t actually ride 😬
How did he even fall off the 2nd time? I couldn't follow it lol. I think it's hilarious that guy at the end mimicked him and just rolled off too
Even the horse doesnt like him!
He's on the horse's neck, and in response to the pressure he lowered his neck. I doubt the horse was abused. He was probably laughing his head off like "This dork again"
how is this news, i fell off an horse once and that wasnt reported
SwingerDinger The Silent Gamer hsssjsjdjdidodx No dhs)djfjdriiseirfg u
It's cuz his a prince
Yeah strange I feel like I deserve some kind of recognition for falling of my horses at least twice a day 😂 It’s probs cause he’s a prince though
SwingerDinger The Silent Gamer I fell off and nearly got run over - not a damned thing ! Disappointed!
what about the people who can actually stay on, shouldn't they get props for actually riding well
It seemed the horse had had enough as he tipped his head so far forward that Harry had no other option
Of course he did. If he hadn't let his legs swing back he would have been able to sit up and keep his balance. It was his loss of balance that caused the horse to put its head down because he was leaning on its neck.
This is kinda funny the horse hardly moving and he just rolls off😂. He needs to work on keeping his heels down and sitting back 😂😂😂
He needs to work on many things. He needs to grow more brain cells.
Clearly can’t ride a horse at ALL.
I feel more sorry for the horse. Harry was sitting on its neck. The horse had to get him off some how!
I feel sorry for all polo horses because they have no chance to understand what is going on. I saw it once and I was totally shocked.
Great to see the horse lower it’s head to dismount Harry & then strut away from him. H couldn’t punch this horse. Too many witnesses!
Is there a height limit for polo ponies? Or do they just choose horses that are too small for them because it makes them closer to the ground and so the ball?
@Emily Walsh 15.2 more like. 16.2 is big for most players.
Polo ponies are meant to be compact for good maneuvering. Sometimes they are larger for speed but never as big as jumpers or other disciplines. Also remember that polo is a game invented in Mongolia (smaller compact horses) and refined in Argentina (smaller compact horses). In recent years horses have been gotten from the race track and bred so as to give the player getting out in front of others an advantage towards the goal. There are no limits for horses’ size as long as they are horses and not ponies. Although he looks big for the horse he is riding, it’s actually an appropriate ratio.
Haha, even a horse doesn't want anything to do with Harry Plotter
he is a horrible rider I feel bad for the horse.
AnimalAddiction so true the horse was barely moving when he fell
He was balancing with his reins on the nasty gag bit!
He probably started riding at a older age
+Horsey Life, Riding at an older age means nothing, proper training of control and regular practice and training with horses, instead of an occasional "Leisure" thing is the secret to being a great horseman. Many of the best riders I know couldn't even afford lessons until they were in their 20's.
@Grace Loves Life dont agree lol
His balance though,,, he went right over the handlebars
Even the horses don't like him
Yep
ARE all polo horses this small? And why doesnt he try to catch his horse 😂
Yes they actually are! I own one and she's tiny! But with an attitude ;)
Yeah polo ponies tend to be small 🤷🏼♀️😂
Yes and mongoleans rode very small horses as well. Historically horses were way smaller than how they are portrayed in the movies.. we think we need these giant horses because we see gandalf riding an andalusian
@@JCElzinga Actually we think we need big horses because we know more about their weight limits now as opposed to then, and should be careful not to overload them.
Most polo “ponies” are horses, it’s a term that they are known by, most of them are 15-16hands and are very fit, the riding style for polo is long stirrups, hence it makes a rider look big on the horse. They all have great characters as his horse shows beautifully!!,
Not even the horse likes him 😂😂😂
He's going to hurt his he let the reins dangle and his horse was loping off and he could have tripped and broke his leg. But he was at a distance when his horse was standing where he could have gotten his horse and took control. This bothers me so much.
The other rider just joked around by dismounting the same way as harry did twice lmao
the end was funny
Normally royals are known to be skilled riders. What an embarrassment Harry is to the Royal Clan, also in this sense. Meanwhile his poor team have to babysit him and his horse instead of concentrating properly on the game. Smh.
Being a fellow polo player, it’s a nice laugh when there are light falls like this instead of what we recently saw in the US Open when a player got a ball to the face and was only saved from being blinded by his goggles
Polo.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Kaylee Reese polo = rich people
his horse just ran off like "yeh that was your fault"😆😆😆
Those polo ponies are conditioned as top gear within the equestrian world. That it tried repeatedly to chuck Harry suggests Harry was doing something seriously wrong which caused the poor animal to want to discard him.
Satisfying to watch
I can't blame the horse knowing that Harry uses spurs.
Not seeing spurs tho. U sure?
Spurs aren’t bad if used correctly. My trainer taught me how to use them before even allowing me to trot with them just at a walk or mostly a halt. My horses wasn’t in pain at all.
Rounded spurs.
@@Paether4 yeah but with the way he fell over in this clip? dont think he knows well enough to use spurs carefully enough..
@@boraanna_ Exactly. My trainers made me get a lower stable leg before even thinking about giving me Spurs.
Oh man, this is kind of pathetic.
how his horse just trots off lmao
He looks like he is riding a pony. he is way too big for this poor horse.
He didn't fall off... The horse threw him off... Not even wanted by the horse.
That pony didn't like mean ol' Harry. It's heard the stable gossip.
That horse does not like him
Love how the horse was barely moving but he still managed to fall off so dramatically😂
the horse, like most of us, didn't want to have anything to do with him
I’ve only just seen this. However , it serves to remind me of the words of the late Sir Alan Lascelles , 1887 - 1981 and what he said he said of the Prince Edward , Prince of Wales and then king Edward VIII , to become Duke of Windsor…….. Edward was made to stop steeple chasing , by his father King George V , it being irresponsibly dangerous given his position. Sir Alan noted at the time that it might be a a blessing if he actually broke his neck, so tiresome , difficult , spoilt and petulant was Edward . I cannot help but remember this opposite the disgraceful brat harry.
Look at that bit. Eww.
I dont mind light bits but that seems like a strong one
Probably tired of being kicked. Poor horse. ' I'll just go left, when he goes right'.
i think he needs to get some more lessons ....in a school horse maybe :,)
I love how everyone’s like *GaSp* when he falls in slow motion of the horses neck hitting the ground ever so slightly
Look how his horse is doing a stress trot and keeping a distance from Prince Harry
A bang to the head explains an awful lot about his actions lately
the horse went like 'dang it harry, it hurts! get off!'
Drunk again 😂😂😂
The only female to ever literally "dump" Harry. not only once but twice lol
This explains a lot of Harry’s behaviour……
This is so funny to me because like I've been thrown by a bucking horse into a wall and still had to catch the horse after and he's got someone to take the horse from him
Most animals sense evil.!!!
That horse doesnt like him one bit.
Queen elizabth at 95 could probably ride horses better than him😂
POOR HORSE!
Hope he doesn't beat the horse later... 🙁
Looks like a really hard sport
I am relieved he did not punish the little pony!
I bet H punished the horse afterwards. He is known to be cruel to the polo ponies.
I never would have thought he would be so disliked.
Love that he forgetz about his horse and the horse gallops off could of got its legs caught and hes to busy shaking hands and watching someone fall of
Atleast he didn’t get too mad at the horse lol
Hazards of riding a horse,, polo or not. Oddly, the horse backed-off when Harry came to approach him after he fell...looks like it dpn't like Harry.
I thought he wanted to be called just Harry
The horse dumped him faster than the royal family did.......
His horse does not seem right!!!!! What has it been fed???
She probably knows he's drunk
when does evil have 6 legs - when harry's on a horse
He isn’t evil lmao. Don’t ever say that about the royal family. He treats his horses kindly. Don’t get him confused with his father.
lol... Horse doesn't hate him. Prince Harry simply got a little forward in the saddle and with the pony coming to a quick halt its easy to end up kissing ground.. LOL.. trust me I've done it quite a few times. LOL love the opposing team member doing a fake fall for sport of the moment. At least UK royalty and poke fun... :)
jasmine thompkins fellow player?
Or fellow equestrian?
nacho Figueras never dissapoints lol
He treats his horses disgustingly. Repeatedly cutting them with his spurs. He is cruel and a fake humanitarian.
The first time he fell off, it was like he put too much weight on the horses neck and the horse responded by getting that weight off its neck.
the horse says " I curtsied like this "
Of course it's a mare 😂😂😂
No one noticed how he faints a kick to Nacho Figueiras when he does the joke ? What a sore loser. Wow.
More money than experience 🙄
Wow! I thought he was a better rider....
Honestly that was the softest fall I’ve ever seen. He slowly fell off and didn’t even hit hard.
Very classy dismount
What is the strongest animal? A racehorse, because it can take hundreds of people for a ride at once!
Good he’s mean towards the polo horses
someone needs to learn to ride XD
The horse who refused to be abused❤
😂😂😂 prince harry sorry couldn't help laughing
He was OFF balance!
That’s so stupid if u fall off a horse in walk. Honestly poor ridding. He needs to get more lessons as this is called sitting on a horse while it walks not riding.
The royal family grows up with horses playing polo is a whole new realm then regular riding. Much more difficult so everybody stop Bitchen I would love to see try polo
They were hardly moving...
Polo is entirely different then any other equestrian sport it may look like there was nothing no going on but holding both the racquet and controlling the horse makes for a difficult ride
its tiny horsie
That horse was so done with him
I’ve fallen off broken my arm 2 swollen eyes and no news about me
