Just want to make it clear that no horses or riders were injured, all of them got up and walked away.
Sky Samson I understand that I'm only uploading the video, I don't do cross country or show jumping myself. At least there were no major injuries. Also the horses were wearing boots to protect their legs.
@@keunkkum3168 Boots don't matter. I know all you did was upload however you seem biased. These horse can and have suffered catastrophic injuries that don't show up until later on. Bowed cannons, fractured fetlocks, on and on.
@@ponylovermadden4560 The boots are OPEN in the front and the damage shows up later! Right after.the crash the hoses are in shock. At the Sydney Olympics....2 horses died in one day!
A horse can’t tell you it’s feeling just like people I can clearly tell the horses got hurt
U don’t need to attack the uploader She put a disclaimer to say no horse or riders were seriously injured at the scene meaning u don’t witness pain. All horses after going out on the corse r checked over as the have been galloping and jumping off uneven ground so any injuries would be found.❤️
I love eventing but this course seemed too difficult for the horses to read. There were way too many falls and mishaps-it doesn’t look safe at all.
The course designer didn't intend for this many problems to happen but there were so many first time eventers in 5* Eventing. It's the hardest and highest level there is so the course needs to be challenging.
Yes, it is the same two or three, there are far too many falls on this course!!
Keun Kkum I understand that 5 stars are supposed to be challenging but if you compare this to this years Kentucky three day event, there were far more accidents at burghley-far more than can be attributed to first time 5* riders I think. Advanced and experienced riders still had trouble with this course. A course should be challenging but this just looked unsafe as you could tell a lot of the horses were unsure of how to tackle the questions. The white oxer combination especially seemed hard for the horses to grasp and I think it was just asking too much. The frangible pins are a great idea but it doesn’t mean we should be making the fences bigger and the combinations more difficult.
Same.
This course was not too difficult for the horses, the course designer would not have it designed that way. It’s meant to challenge the horse and rider. Some of the questions were very hard but that’s what eventing is. Its meant to test the abilities of the horse and rider and sometimes you fall in the process. If you look at the stats of the show most riders don’t finish the show.
This white corner is totally unfair for horse wellbeing. Cross designer should jump it first :/
that white corner is on a world champion ship course it was meant to test the horse and rider I agree it was a harsh course but it was built to see how they handle harsh lines and fences
How are the horses even supposed to jump the white corner
I really want to ride cross country when I’m older, and I just started with the base of it with my horse. But I will never ever beat my horse over a jump like this. Its also terrible to see how some riders go on after they failed a jump miserably
@@zaliryan5794 yeah, be challenging but there were far too many fails over that corner. It should not have been a jump.
@@nikitadeul5298NO serious
Seeing things like this really makes me appreciate frangible pins, I personally think the 2019 course was a bit too intense
I was just about to comment on this video just about that. I was going to say that it’s brilliant the technology that’s gone in to the jumps as some of those falls could have been so much worse than what they were for the horse. Still wouldn’t find me jumping at this height though, even though we are both capable.
It is supposed to be extremely intense. You just have to really work hard to be good enough🙂
And sometimes it just doesn’t work out.
I think the hardest course I’ve ever seen hands down is the World Equestrian Games 2002. The course was so hard that none of the riders did the fast route for the second water jump and one rider did the shortcut at the bullpen and was forced to drop out after two refusals. Everyone had time penalties as a result, not including how many refusals happened on the rest of the course.
@@SaraNightfire1 oh wow, I don't think I watched that yet!
Doesn’t matter how plastic or collapsible you make the jumps, all those hits and pulls take a toll on them after awhile.
after the horse and rider got off of the course the horse would have been checked over by a vet and made sure that there was nothing that could be of harm and if something came up later on i am certain that the rider would have gotten a vet to be safe
@@zaliryan5794 besides the point …
I’m not the biggest eventing expert but that white corner jump brought so many horses down. In my opinion it should’ve been a bit smaller
yeah same
It was bad enough to put a horse off jumping, and probably the rider too
a bit smaller and with a significantly longer route to it. Now it was straight after another difficult big jump, a tight corner and from an angle the horse couldn't see the whole jump until right at it. Those jumps weren't fair to these horses.
I believe it's actually animal cruelty. This Level of cross country should be forbidden. It's just horrible to see.
Those white fences are all way to wide to be that tall on uneven ground.
Is no-one gonna talk about how half of them were beating their horses over the jumps?
The Werewolf of Wagga Wagga 2:39 especially this rider. I jump to with my horse but I have never had to hit my horse to get over the jump. I don’t really see the need to hit. If your horse can’t jump it, the only thing you are doing with hitting then is forcing your horse to get over it. It may bring you and your horse in danger.
I do not condone unnecessarily beating or hitting an animal for any reason but when you event sometimes a tap or smack with a crop is needed to give your horse some getup and go especially at upper levels they are not beating their horses.
I agree ty!
@@julianacaggiano agree!!
@@julianacaggiano I agree that a small tap or reminder is necessary but sometimes it is really really hard over and over again. Repetitively using their whole arm to scare the horse into the jumps. There's one rider in particular who always does this but I forget her bame
6:50 that horse got up and saw that his owner was stuck and stood neatly. That shows again how well horses can think
I agree! it would've been VERY bad if that horse did not stand still.the rider would have been dragged by the stirrup. that horse is so well trained!
HorseLifeWithFloor horses are my stables were trained to stand still if anything like that happened. There’s still the odd few that still gallop off but I don’t blame them tbh
Owch when the horse rolled over that must have knocked the wind of of them
yes! the trust these horses and riders have for each other is remarkable. i don’t blame any of these fails on the rider or horse- completely the course designers
eh. I think the horse was struck by the crash. not horsemanship that moment..
This video just illustrates all that's wrong with eventing now...it's a show jumping course over uneven ground with more intimidating fences. It's grotesque how some of the riders were chasing at their horses upsetting their balance right before the leap, and just looking like a bunch of desperate cowboys..it was scary and seemed so irresponsible to ask those brave and honest horses to trust a rider that would even ask them to do that course.
I do eventing but even I draw the line at courses like these. They are designed for glory and praise and not the safety of the animals that gives you that glory. So sad. I never hope to go this big as it is just not fair the the horse in my opinion.
"bunch of desperate cowboys" absolutely correct. I totally agree
Thank you for this brilliant comment and I totally agree with you 👌👍
I agree... silly fences, poor Horses... can't people and riders that if horses have a bunch of qualities, they can't fly ? And plus one on the useless Cowboys... Real Cowboys would do better... by running around the fences. ^^
Right on. Not the same sport it was intended to be!!😢
This was hard to watch. The amount of pain these horses must be in even though I read none of them got hurt. I wonder how they are doing now and if any of them had serious underlying injuries.
I'm pretty sure the horse at 2:23 injured his neck. The way he got up and walked with his head held stiff and low... looks awful. And the other rider stuck with his horse laying on him... ouch! Didn't like this video
after the horse and rider got off of the course the horse would have been checked over by a vet and made sure that there was nothing that could be of harm and if something came up later on i am certain that the rider would have gotten a vet to be safe
@@martinap6728 I think horse at 2:23 was doing that because the bridle slipped forwards and his ear was stuck underneath it
All of the horses were thoroughly checked by vets afterwards and there were no injuries. They take them off the course immediately when this happens.
0:38 that guy is a legend no slapping when the horse refused
Yeah he even patted the horse, resurrecting it was ok that it refused the jump
It was more of a foot misplacement, and the rider was probably nervous as well (anyone would be did you see that jump) so the rider probably acknowledged it was their fault and didn’t want to punish the horse for something like that
Absolutely thought the same thing
Ikr sadly when you are riding many people push you to punish a horse for a refusal even if it was your fault. I got bitched out for not whipping a green mare over a jump. It's a good way to ruin a horses nerves.
@@jadenonnel8528 I trained my arabian (he was abused before i got him) and he’s 24 right now, and i can’t hit him, because if i do anytime i move my arm he flinches so bad, and due to this instead, everytime he acts up i just re do something over and over and when he gets it he gets a massive reward and now he’s an amazing horse. He may not know as much as an old warm blood hunter, but he will follow you without a lead rope and i never taught him liberty. Positive rewards are better than negative punishment by a long shot
My goodness, who on earth is the course builder of Burghley H. Trials?? Horrific lines of complexes and fences. Are they deliberately trying to injury the noble, generous horse? Or do they not ride themselves shocking and so depressing for the poor equines.
Ian Stark, former world campion event rider. He was quoted on a British riding newspaper that he was not pleased eith the result.
Ian Stark, see my other comment, on his reaction to the overall competition.
Some of the jumps that broke saved the riders and horses from bad injuries, if some them wouldn’t of broken, no idea what could of happened.
Maryssa LeBlanc yep! Saved a bunch of people who could have easily had a rotational. The fences, thank god, are designed to fall apart when the horse hits them. They have a sort of safety pin that holds the jump but collapses when hit. Saving many of what could be rotationals.. ❤️
This is way to intense. Can easily see how horses break bones and get severely injured. Glad everyone was ok though.
Some horses have fun doing this, and they just want to go and do more
Super
@@laelafarmer9208 some people also have fun being beaten, some women like being..... ;) its animal abuse, you want it or not.
0:39 you can see the rider pat his horse on the neck, and the rider was not mad or disappointed in his horse. Such a true rider 💚
06:43 is why it is so important for tack to fit properly. very scary moment.
I think the horse was trying to get over the jump and got his hoof caught on the martingale, I don't think it was super loose but I don't know, still important to check that everything fits
@@keunkkum3168 Yes, I know what happened. Clear to see. Glad everyone was ok. phew!
Personally, if I saw how many rounds could’ve ended in a broken leg or even worse, I would not have even considering riding this course as anyone can see it’s badly put together. However I commend these riders on how well they handled the situations. I think that it must be so so tough to ride a course like this when you’ve qualified for burghley. However this course was just not it. Cross country is meant to be challenging and is very dangerous however so many issues could’ve been solved here. So many rotational falls it’s ridiculous
This is horrific... bad riders, terrified horses and really dangerous falls...
I personally would love to see you jump this course. They are hardly bad riders, just inexperienced as a lot of them are Eventing 5* for the first time
Right, well ok... let me put it this way: if this is the standard of what's good in cross-country, then it's an abusive sport, on a par with racing, steeplechase and that disgusting thing that's done to the Tennessee Walker. Imagine putting your horse in such extreme danger in the name of "fun" and "sport". :(
I agree the riders look a bit in- experienced. And the horses are obviously scared and confused
@@DutchIsraeli This isn’t a standard. It was a bad day for a lot of riders and it’s never going to be a perfect day where everyone jumps clear. It’s the reality of horses and Burghley! Like I said, you jump round Burghley and never put a foot wrong and then come speak to me
@@tauma_the_goat7156 like I said, this is abusive.
I could barely watch the oxers and open corners at the maltings!! Everyone seemed to be really struggling to hit them on a good stride and we’re getting super deep to them all eeek
It was and still is horrible to watch.
Poor horses trying their hearts out over a ridiculously difficult and dangerous course, is this entertainment?
I am an eventer… meaning I do cross country. However, even I draw the line when it becomes permanently damaging or dangerous to the horse. I never hope to jump this high as I don’t feel it is fair to them at all!
Yep, it is..
@@piperjoseph8207 если ездить нормально и хорошо относится к лошади,можно прыгнуть любую высоту.Но для этого нужно быть полным проффесионалом,здесь очень прекрасно показано о том насколько кросс начал отставать,не от всадников,не от лошадей,от людей которые проектируют барьеры
The lady at 2:30 is not taking her hands of the rains to use her wip so every time she uses it she’s also yanking the horses mouth and giving him mixed signals
Reins*
@@fallenali4880 This woman should have taken her hand, off the reins so she could use her whip harder.
I used to be an equestrian, I was born with an infinite passion for horses, I took horse riding lessons, started to compete as a child, then I started doing eventing, coaching students, training horses, all this over a 20 year period. One day I was teaching and I seriously started to doubt the ethics of what we are doing to those animals. In the end, it came down to teaching people who just want to win ribbons and championships, some with money and doing this for social standing, once in a while someone who really loved horses but generally it is a very egotistical pursuit. My coach tried to push me to drug my horse after the cross country, to be sure he would pass the vet test the next day... I didn't do it. I also worked with race horses and the horrors that take place there in the name of money are unspeakable. I quit it all after 20 years, starting at 9 years of age, and quitting at 29. I love horses free, free to be what they are not some instrument to ego gratification. Do you really need to risk their lives? all for a ribbon or a trophy? this video shows incredibly treacherous obstacles, and not so qualified riders... it breaks my heart
The jump at 8:41 gives me so much anxiety :( odd to see a horse just stop moving
I believe that was a rotational fall sadly...and tbh I think the horse has been put down...it looked like it broke it's hind leg
H e a r t B r e a k e r The horse was fine he competed weeks after that, if anything I’d be more worried about the rider I mean he did just have an entire 1200 pound animal land on his back and sit there
H e a r t B r e a k e r I had checked to make sure all horses were not injured after the competition. I think he either just couldn't get up or he was in shock. There was also a clip straight after this showing the horse and rider walking away.
It looks more like the horse knows the rider is under him and is waiting for help, if he kept rolling the rider would be done for. It happen to me once, I flip with my horse over a jump, I landed under her, she threw herself to the side to avoid me.
that whole crash was so scary
At what point do we stop and think “maybe these jumps are dangerous and unrealistically demanding on these animals?”
So impressed at the horses bravery in taking some of these!
It’s awful to see people using horses mouths to carry them over long jumps that they set the horses up for to begin with. 😥😢
They are fine they get great treatment and care and they love going over the jumps you can tell how excited they are until they get hurt.
@@SCAREofAL yeah it’s all fun and games until someone breaks a leg or worse…
Yes. Some of these jumps are soo dangerous. I would never want to expose my horse to such danger.
@@FranciscaAVior yeah, Cross country isn’t my favorite.
@@SCAREofAL Yeah right and probably have some good old nerve damage from all the yanking on the bits.
ok, the fact that most horses knocked over, flipped, or refused the same exact jumps probably means they aren't suitable jumps. I know it's high level but the exact same jumps got refused or knocked over by almost all the horses.
4:12 that first jump was so iffy already I would've called it right there. That course is nuts.
Thanks for bringing two of my most favourite things together: Kpop and and cross-country
@@westernrider6005 how to be toxic in one easy step 🙄
@@westernrider6005 not koop
I love cross country and I love the gopro video's etc but this course and many others seem way and way to difficult. I know it's a high level of cross country but this is too difficult.
agreed
those oxers are so ducking wideeeee!!!! my horse would literally think it’s a bounce
Absolutely agree. I know one horse died (it was even the level under this) and the rider said the horse mistook the jump as a bounce
@2:20 wow that could’ve been so much worse! I get worried for my horse is she rolls her ankle in a miss step, I would be a wreck if I didn’t cross country. These horses are amazing athletes, some of these jumps made me wonder what they were thinking with design though.
What a brutal course so many falls, refusals, run outs, horses falling all at the same lot of jumps, that was a tad hard to watch but I definitely take my hat off to all the riders competing and their horses giving it their all 😊
Moral of the story: The more you kick, yell at and hit your horse before a jump, the higher the chances of a refusal or injury. 3:41 Check how when the horse gets up he moves away from the rider, probably because he knew he was in trouble. Smh some of these people don't deserve horses. 4:53 speaks for itself 5:25 I love the little pat to say it's ok Lol I'm just putting all my time stamps here 6:46 LMAO WHY WAS THAT OLD WOMAN SMILING 7:33 Clearly no care for the horse with that temper tantrum 8:28 Made my blood boil 8:41 OH gosh were they both ok?
the ‘temper tantrum’ at 7:33 isn’t that at all. horse is clearly unhurt and what do you expect her to do? run after a galloping horse as if she can catch it. i’m sure you would hit the ground a couple times too if you had spent hundreds of thousands on travelling across the world and training all your life to compete at this level just to take a tumble at a simple skinny.
@@islamcginnis1926 its stupid to put so much money on so crazy competition. You know the risk, you dont whine whne you fail. Most likely, finances of that person werent hurt. As i asuume only filthy rich (and stupid) is wasting money on such stupidity, that also seems to be animal abuse.
@@alicjamalgorzatabrygida6000 not animal abuse, can guarantee these horses are the best well looked after you could find. also not just money but people train all their lives to compete at this level, obviously you would be disappointed at failing off, just like a footballer is disappointed when they miss a goal.
@@islamcginnis1926 This comment is kinda old and I don't remember typing it. I do agree that I worded it wrong, it wasn't really a temper tantrum. However I still think it's unnecessary to get angry if you're well aware of the risks in the sport.
1:47 well, the rider didn’t fail with ripping the horses face of
Well,I have been riding English style for almost 40 years. Although I started with jumping, of course amateur lebel, in the last years I only enjoyed long rides in the country with.my beloved horse. I believe both horse and rider must have good time and relax and no rider should risk a horse just for his own interest
The person at 2:34 doesn’t need a horse they whipped it in mid air
Lot of tough jumps! A lot of these horses are remarkably calm about a fall or a spill, though. They just kinda walk or wait for their riders to get back up. Shows the relationship they have.
they probably didn't want to run away cause they were so exhausted from this very difficult course
Actually, stunned is more like the truth. When a horse hangs a leg or has a rotational fall they, like humans, are blindsided. Don't anybody kid themselves these horses walked away in onr piece mentally and/or physically. I evented for 10+ years and horses are affected by those bad things that happen accidentally or by bad riding.
Cross country is a scary ass sport. it’s hard to imagine that people did this before they had collapsible jumps👀
I’m seeing many problems at a couple of fences. Speaks to me of bad jump design
. 38 perfect way to handle the refusal. He didn’t beat his horse with the crop, instead he reassured him and tried again.
2:32 Turns to smack horse and gets hella left behind Edit: His whole course is TERRIBLE. Flailing arms, (I’m afraid if he flaps them any faster he’ll fly right off the horse!) pumping body, (I know what drivers seat is but that was excessive) and the yanking! Oh the yanking! That poor horse’s face! This isn’t even something I would expect from a preliminary! Let alone a 5*!
The horse was so small, let alone the rider was ripping on the horse's face while telling it to go faster.
@@flopsybunnies5841 yes!
Some of those riders are absolutely brutal on their horses.
number 22s horse literally gave so many signs that "Hey this is not my day" AND SHE DIDN'T LISTEN. I could see that rotational fall from a mile away.
Yesss, when you're both a horse person and love kpop. Your music taste is immaculate.
Heck them riders need nerves of steel for those jumps. I’ll stick with 2.3 😉
Jumping is tons of fun when you have a balanced and eager horse and a relatively reasonable course. I’m a jumper so I do things around 3’ for shows but I’m working up to four feet at home. This looks like the kind of course I’d never make my horse go through though.
This is an extreme corse! I hope all the horses get all the treats in the world!
I like how he gave his horse pat pf reassurance after the refusal in thr 2nd clip. Horse always first
That was prolly one of the only ones that I smiled and was happy
The 2019 course was at some points way to intense, some angles are also almost impossible
Those jumps were huge it was still amazing
I know they have to make it challenging but Dang… That one corner jump.
When I was doing cross country, the jumps were fully solid. No giveaway . This is a really great idea because I had a bad accident because of it and am still paying For it today. (Horse was okay, I cushioned his fall)
The one with the stud getting stuck in his girth gives me the heebeeejeeviess
These courses are getting plain dangerous. I think this is bordering cruelty to the animal. No better than horse racing
It is amazing how powerful these animals are but really hitting them over these difficult jumps is just a bit over the top. Horses have some hard vision in which they estimate the distances and it’s so amazing how most of these horses clear such huge heights and distances
British eventing, in particular, has taken to handing out penalties for improper use of whips!
Good comment re horses' vision. Recently a book was published noting in it a study regarding how a horse's vision works. Turns out they have pretty poor vision, e.g. show jumpers which consistently want to position their heads high coming up to a jump. It also explains (sorta) about their tendencies to spook at dangerous objects like a wayward leaf or a menacing pebble.
@@lizmaslin5258 Yeah i know what their vision is like i completed my horse biology lol
Rotational fall. Horse and rider lucky to survive
0:48 what a saint letting go of the reigns and jumping off not falling on its neck and holding onto the reigns while on the ground! :D
that's immediately what I thought, no trying to hang on and unbalancing the horse, straight out the side door and the horse clearly loves the rider cause it stops straight away. that's proper horsemanship
@@isabelbowes4547 it was also an amazing emergency dismount!
@@tyrasearay3683 yeah! theyre certainly exceptional equestrians!
I really appreciate that girl that gave her horse a pat even though it refused.
Buck’s fall scared me more than the others
3:43 awww he got away from her so quickly
And then that stupid loose dog scared him...... poor pony
Allison Brizburk I know!! People who can’t control their dogs SHOULDN’T BE AT EVENTS!! I don’t understand why people don’t get it!
Caroline Clarks horse said it all, he poohed himself and said NO THANKS!!
What a good video and what a good songs!! I love Seventeen :³❤️
That horse at 6:41 landed a jump on 1 front foot!!!! Amazing save by the horse...
I slowed down the footage and it looks like the horse got his hoof stuck on the girth or some straps down there😟
@@hockey_n_horses1181 yh true
I was so surprised when looking for a horse fail compilation (because I couldn’t sleep due to being ill), I clicked on the first one I saw and it starts with a K-pop song aka Seventeen-Hit 🤩 Feeling a bit better now😊
That white fence looks hella dangerous with how many horses straight up fell ON their riders for that one.
*Clicks on vid* OH HELLO MY KPOP FRIENDS
It always warms my heart to see that some of the riders give their horses pets after they fail a jump 🥰 reminds me that there are still people in this sport who actually love their horses.
Very tough trials for horses & I don't think it is ok for horses & riders, especially the water points seems insane for horses to cover. Is there any limit where we can limit our race & thirst to win?
Some of these riders need to know when their horses have had enough. Not to mention some of these jumps are unreasonably dangerous
I had to stop watching this!! I feel so bad for the horrified horses...
3:01 i love how she hung onto the horses neck for dear life XD
Me casually watching and then here seventeen's song clap. I'm living that was a nice surprise
I love the fact that they are masking more jumps be able to fall down it’s so much safer
As a hobby horser, I can relate to the “not happening today” that the horses are feeling
This course is so technical. I doubt your going to see most of theses elements in the next course, way to many problems over the same questions.
Love the mix of kpop and horses
Not me getting distracted by Hit, Clap, and Dramarama lol
You know the course is too much when you can make a whole video of all the fails and refusals. Also, that rotational fall😬
I think Badminton Horse Trials' course designers make some very attractive fences, but sometimes, they just don't seem that safe. I know they've since introduced frangible pins on these fences, and rightly so, but they're oftentimes still ostentaciously wide or large. Do they really need to be that big and daunting? Must be scary when coming off over one of these fences.
On peut voir a quel point c'est dangereux pour les chevaux comme pour les humains. Je pense que les obstacles sont trop compliqué pour les chevaux... Ce qui donnes toutes ces chutes dangereuses pour les chevaux et leurs cavaliers.
My respect to the riders who pat their horse instead of whipping them when they fail a jump📈📈📈📈
It's fascinating to see how the majority of the horses already make mistakes before the actual fall. You can tell when they are having a bad run. Most of the time it's the riders who fail to guide the horse and ride the horse in my opinion. Most of the time the horse and/or rider can't see the strides/distances, so the horse panics and stumbles, like humans would too! Same with speed. If you push your horse too much or too little, it's going to have a hard time clearing fences.
2:33 they hit there horse with their crop and hit the horse quite bare they deserved to fall of that was not professional riding
Schleichnstuff 2020 The horse deserved to be smacked, besides she only smacked her horse once with her crop.
I love the riders who stopped or slowed to be sure the horses were good. Very good sportsmanship and horsemanship on their part
that first rider dosent know wtf hes doing... also these jumps can be very very dangerous because once they are hit they dont fall so the horse gets hurt even worse
Music choice is on point tho 👌🏻
This course is dangerous. A downhill jump right ahead of a tree? Really? Is one of the horses named Sunny Bono?
the person about 2 mins i with the red cap and bays two point is just… wow!
seeing this reminds me of why i ride classical dressage.. are there actually any eventers who ride their horses in harmony?
After watching several horses go, I still can't figure out how that open rail corner jump (the one after the two huge oxer type questions) is supposed to be ridden? Maybe the angle of the camera made it hard to see. Not many riders cleared it.
4:18 smoothest shit I've seen in a long time.
Seeing this makes me realize why I only ride recreational. I listen to my horse, and I don't go for crazy jumps or events. I'm not saying I'm a perfect rider, but I try my best to make it comfortable for my horse by riding bitless and without spurs etc..
0:37 - the chicken trying to take off XD
1:04 Horse: lemme take a dump right..... here
Manny jumps are way to hard to “see” for the horses so they don’t know how high and wide they have to jump and most of the riders are riding very poor, especially how they are sitting on their horses and how they support their horses (more not support them, or even make it harder for the horse)
Sum were funny but a lot was heart dropping
Example at 2:12 Say no horses were injured…. Right.
Some horses have fun doing this.
they get so harsh if the horse makes a small mistake or refusal..
what happended to the safe jumps without the death wishes?
