  • Ah, I'm crying.. R.I.P Hickstead..:'(

  • do you still hate the picture at 1:19 and if so, could you msg it to me. I absolutely adore it.

  • This is amazing, please can i use some footage in a video?

    i'd give credit in the credits and description?

  • Hickstead is the best horse in the world x

  • RIP!!! Miss you !!! I know who my hero is. ALL HORSES!!

  • Rest in Peace, Hickstead. We all love you and you will be dearly missed.

  • Whyyyyyyy did u have to leave us ,i would try to go to all his compititions i was there for him hoping he would win but i never got a chance to c his last breath.I LOVE U HICKSTEAD!!!!!!!!!

  • Hickstead isn't dead. He still competes.

  • @blueroans4567 Excuse me? Wishful thinking I hope, otherwise its just stupid to post things like that.

  • 1:19 <3

  • 1:00 <3

  • what i love about them both is that in a winnign round he wouldnt just cheer for him, he'd point at hickstead to say 'It's all because of him' a d thats why they are auch a insporation because he points out that its also the horse where mose riders pat & wave their arms around & say it in the interview later. But this team is just one in a million, he really shows how much thus horse means to him and how he is so proud of it & that he and the horse worked hard all through their time together <3

  • This just shows have strong the Equestrian Sport really is. Even though more then most of us didn't have a chance to personally know this animal or maybe not even know about him until his tragic death, we still all come together to mourn the world a great loss and show how much every horse, winner or not, is important to us. I love being an Equestrian. I couldn't be prouder. There is no other sport like ours. <33

  • BEST HORSE EVER!!!!!!!IK MIS HEM HIJ WAS ZOOOOOOW COOOL

  • I really must say, im happy he died. Now he's in a better place, in a place of peace... All this high jumping is just a pain for all horses, and no horse has fun jumping... definitely not when its this high!! I just find it sad that nobody does anything about it... everyone see's it but no one wants to believe that all this is such a pain for the horses... Hickstead was a brilliant horse, he didnt deserve to have such a tiring life...

    R.I.P Hickstead ♥

  • @ImABeliever15696 Horses do enjoy jumping. How could you say that? You can tell by there body language, and if they hated it that much they would do everything they could so they wouldn't have to jump. And he had talent, talent like that doesn't go to waste so stop putting up pointless comments like this.

    RIP Hickstead♥♥♥

  • @AwaitingSweetDreams You know why horses almost never refuse to jump? Because their rider is their leader, they're gregarious animals. If they find a leader, they will do anything to please him. That's how it works. And what facial expression!? Did you ever see a horse cry or what? if you think logically, how is their any reason why they would love it? Just tell me one! :)

  • beautyfull!

  • RIP. Hickstead we Miss you your Death is so sad you will alays in our memory. I Love this Video thank you fot The Poset Hickstead was the Best Jumper in the History. We Miss you so much but we love you Forever it's so sad;(!!!!!!

  • commenting on this again, because this is just too beautiful ♥ my favourite that i've seen so far.

    who does the cover of this song, if you don't mind me asking? it's perfect ♥

  • If you don't care about this horse, you have no reason to be here watching this video and bad mouthing him. So click off of this video and move the fuck on. Obviously he was important to us and you are nothing to any of us. So grow up, get a heart and then do die, only no one will care enough to make you a tribute. Thanks. :]

  • @Im2equestrian4u I freakin love you haha

  • R.I.P YOURE MY CHAMPION!

  • R.I.P. hero, you will always be in our memory

  • amazing horse

    

  • R.I.P beautiful amazing horse xx

  • THE BEST HORSE EVER.

  • Respond to this video... it looked like he had too much white on his face at first

  • @ForeverHoofbeats oh..... sorry :P

  • To all of the people that say he was "just a horse" you are wrong. He was an amazing athlete, and his life was worth more than all of the people putting horrible comments on this video put together. What's so wrong with someone making a tribute to an amazing horse.

  • omg i cried

  • wow .. its actually amazing how many people don't have a heart. Some may think Hickstead was just a horse, but he wasn't. Unless your involved in the sport you wouldn't actually know the significance of his death. Hickstead was the most amazing athlete in the equestrian world and so many people loved to watch him carefully make his way through a course. So newsflash, Hickstead was not 'just a horse' he was way more than that Have some respect people.

  • great vid but the first pic wasnt hickstead

  • @iHeartHickstead yeah it is actually

  • @rozeenRot you obviously dont understand the horse world then do you, and hickstead was champion and was a very special horse! and those slaughter horses that die we dont really know them very well, every ' just a horse ' deserves to live

  • it was actually a separated aorta. what did you use to make this video? where did you get that last picture of him and Eric with the gold medal?

  • it was actually a separated aorta. what did you make this vid on?

  • R.I.P Wonderful horse ! <3

  • So very sad, R.I.P. Hickstead

  • rip hickstead, no one will ever forget you<3

  • mi a cime a dalnak..????

  • This is defiantly my favorite video of Hickstead.

  • hát igen sajnos meg kellett válnia a világnak ezzen gyönyörü bajnoktol ki szivét lelkét bele adta összzes versenyébe amiben csak indult hiába nézném nem láttom eszt a gyönyörü nemes állatot soha töbet a pályán önfeleten repölni társával az akadájok felet :'( :'( nyugodj békében RIP Hickstead örökre a szivünk ben élsz......<3 :'(

  • hicksed

    today

    tomorrow

    future

    you will always be remembered,

    your a champion

    and one that will forever be missed :( xxx

  • If all you ungrateful people wanna carry on saying it was ' just a horse '... ' just a horse' can bring pride and enjoyment into everyone's life's. especially Hickstead.. he was a pure champion and was special to everyone! if you lost something so close to you.. i'm sure you wouldn't be acting this way.. RIP Hickstead.. you were a born champion <3

  • @ThePepsimax1234 It's still a horse! They kill horses everyday, but I don't see you all weep over that?

  • this is so sad :'(

  • LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL­LOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOLLOL

  • @TROLLHAMMER87 what a asholee go suck youre dick 

  • @TROLLHAMMER87 Oh god you are the biggest idiot i have ever heard off go away and go rot in hell.

  • Evanescence - My Immortal

    rip

  • holy shit people its just an animal

    get over it.

  • @rohullah2006 go away if your going to be rude. no one cares what you think.

  • @alwaysinthesaddle but its fun to see ppl get pissed off

  • @rohullah2006 and your just a human only no one will care when you die :)

  • WHY DID THE HORSE have a heart attack?

  • @TheRevolutionary465 Why does humas have heart attacks? Same unknown reason.

  • @TheRevolutionary465 However, Hickstead didnt get a heart attack. He died of a ruptured aorta, which caused heart failure. Big difference.

  • People make tributes to dead famous people all the time but this person decided to make a fucking tribute to a damn horse? Did this horse bring life changing inspiration to your pathetic life? It's a fucking horse!

  • @Spyhunter107 She can do whatever she feels like and if that is to make a tribute for Hickstead, then she can! I can't speak for the maker of this video but Hickstead and Eric Lamaze have inspired me more than most people in the world will ever do. I think you should find something better to do with your life then write nasty things about something you clearly don't understand.

  • @DreamSceneHorseGirl She could and I won't stop her but doesn't mean I can't question her actions.. I'm done with this video bye!

  • @Spyhunter107 hickstead is a life changing inspiration. him and eric lamaze as a TEAM were unstopable. they are olympic athletes just like anybody that someone might look up too. you obviously know nothing about the sport so dont diss. the equine world has sufferd a huge loss and you dont know what some people might be going through if they envolved with Hickstead. so dont be rude. thanks. RIP Hickstead. a truely great athlete.. <3

  • rnp ,no readin mofo0 , my cat got hit by a cyote. all ite den

  • R.I.P. Sarah Jessica Parker

  • @xx10toexx she's still alive..

  • jesus, why are people crying so much about a fucking horse? did i miss something?

  • I look forward to doing some arts and crafts now, knowing that, possibly, Hickstead will be there.

  • R.I.P JOE FRAZIER

  • It's a fucking horse...

  • @Spyhunter107

    I think your right....I never had a horse but Ive seen pictures of them.

  • Where did you get the clips Nice vid and :( rip hickstead

  • Beautiful video. Hickstead was a truly inspiring horse. </3

  • It's a fucking horse, animals die everyday.

  • @dinohax people die everyday too, asshole.

  • I love how his rider always praised him and the appreciation he showed for Hickstead. what fantastic bond they had, the fences they jumped were huge but non seemed to bother them. What a truly beautiful horse with enough talent to make anyone stop and stare. Sleep tight Hickstead, You will clearly never be forgotten.

  • it was a champion !! ;S xx

  • RIP Hickstead :'(

    i really real for eric..........cant imagine how he feels-im crying and hes wasnt even my champion :'(

  • RIP, exceptional talent.

  • Great job on the video ! !! nice tribute

  • ROFL HORSES! i thought it was the guy that died hahahahaha

  • human greedy killed him ----dopping???

  • LOL its just a horse, we eat milions horses each day. make tribute to them! lol :)

  • @Mrstrangevoice a single horse? but not stp this was not just a horse, but a legend! and you eat no! You eat! but when you think your tribute to them if it's because we love them and we respect Eric Lamaze ...

  • @Mrstrangevoice  You make a living being a dick?

  • A wonderful tribute to a truly great horse. Watching him jump at WEG 2010 was absolutely incredible, I've never seen a horse jump like it, with so much ability and sheer enthusiasm for the job!

    Thoughts are with the Eric, the owners and everyone else involved in this horse's career. Farewell Hickstead, may you rest peacefully in greener pastures.

  • Ik Mis je je was het paard van me droomen :(

  • wow seems like an amazing horse :') RIP Baby <3

  • I posted m'y video on his fb page too.

    R.I.P Hickstead, he's really awesome.

You brought me into the world of horses and know with my own horse I well forever be in your dept, thanks to that fateful day at Spruce Meadows where I saw you jump your heart out !!

  • RIP Hickstead Even though you we only with us a short 15 years you represent what a Ture Showjumping Champlain is.You gave the word "Champian" a whole new meaning. RIP little guy .Ran to you heart content in Heaven Hope to meet you there one day. Eric Lamaza I am turly sorry for you lost.He was an amazing horse and athlete.I remender watching you ride in the Equstian games in Kyand cheering for you guys in the final four.

  • Cried. Hickstead, why did you have to go.. </3, RIP angel. xx

  • Oh my, I used to ride horses when I was about 6 or 7. But we don't own one. When I left out place, I forget about horses for there is none in Here. But then after 19 long years, here I watched this video from a clip posted in Yahoo, I broke my heart and cried. What a tragic death. He amazed people from his outstanding performances. Rest in peace in paradise dear Hickstead. And to his owner, though he's a big loss, we don't own a thing forever. We have to let go and move on. May you have peace o
