i like the video and i don't want to offend anyone but really is it right that the only thing the horse knows is to continue racing even if the rider has fallen. Did any of you notice that? I personnally think it is wrong!
Its hardly ever the horses fault. They either slip going around the barrel to tight, or the rider simply makes a mistake. We all have made a bunch of mistakes on horses and we have learned. Barrek racing is pretty hard, and alot of people have what i like to call competive syndrome where you just get really competive. I've learned from my cuz, when we just do it for fun. We both get very competive with each other, but not one of our horses have sliped thank god.
I'm fine with barrel racing... Except when people go too far. Running your horse around barrels is perfectly safe in my eyes, until the rider goes to extremes to cut time. Most nowadays cut WAY close to the barrels, risking their horses to be in the money. I also can't stand it when riders spur and whip their horses into running. If the horse wants to run, it shouldn't need this treatment.
I'm not saying that everyone rides barrels this way, just that I can't stand those who do.
Awesome video. I like the song, and I really like how you timed the horses turning around the barrels with the guitar solo/intro.
Just incase anybody might be scared off cuz of this vid though, most of those falls were cuz a)the horses had sliding shoes to help turn or do a "sliding stop" b)the rider pulled or kicked, spooking the horse c)the rider lost their balance while kicking the horse or turning c)the horse just fell/tripped from too tight a turn. Develop a good relationship with ur horse
ugh this video makes me feel sick with all the horrible falls how does anyone see this as a positive piece of entertainment...although I nearly watched the whole thing...
you did a really good job on the video. but im a horse rider my self and an made me soo sad to see the horses going down like that and if their owner didnt care so much about that fucking ribbon than that wouldnt of happened
Hey sorry to see those falls made you sad and all but really? the owners coundnt have stoped alot of those falls and im sure that those horses are very well kept! if you really are a horse rider then you would know that falls are a part of riding! you cant stop them,you can only find the mistake and hope they dont happen again! im sure you have had your falls,and i highly doubt your first thoughts were if your horse was all right! Go fuck off and 'ride' your little pony!
@max01zoe08 we care allot about our horses(: my little mare gets adjusted after each run to keep her from getting sore and we buy ridiculously expensive magnet blankets that probably dont even work haha barrel racers love there horses just as much as every other riding style.. and i have never seen a barrel race for ribbons.. just saying ;D dont hate barrel racers based on the competition we choose the horses love it..
this is amazing!! i think anyone who rides horse are the bravest people on earth.. sitting on a half ton animal.. trusting them with your life... and pushing them to the limits.. when you know that things like this can happen!
i shared it on my facebook so my other friends can see it!!
Omg helmets people!!! And that lady with the rearing horse that fell on her... why would you lean back?!?! No offense to barrel racers.
