I would say eventing was the best sport :) and the hardest thing for any horse rider is staying in tune and balanced with you horse, which they all seem to lack. Why don't they ever take mane? I can never understand that?
this is so true, show jumping is not easy, I have been riding in 12 years and I love show jumping, I have fall of a horse 2 times at show jumping, the first time was when the horse didn´t want to jump, I fainted (i don´t really remember what happend, I remember that the horese didn´t want to jump and then i was laying on the ground. the other horse did a to big jump, I was riding for a swedish famous show jumper last week, she was impressed, she said I was a good show jumper :) I <3 Show jumping
This vid is great! i do that myself (at 3'6") and im only a teen! most people dont actually have falls/issues like this though. i've broken 3 bones (shoulder, elbow, rib) but i accept full responsibiltiy for what happened (i looked down.) whoops. i obviously try not to fall off tho, even if my horse is slightly weird.
im a show jumper have been for years! its not easy at all you always need to be one step ahead of your horse or it can go wrong like this but it still doenrt always work out because ur horse can slip or trip then u have to think of a safe way to throw yourself off without being crushed or try stay on when its not as bad :D
I love show jumping. And if horses didnt like it, they wouldnt jump their hearts out! You cant make a huge animal do anything they wouldnt wanna do. Its super intimidateing to canter towards a fence at times knowing everything that could go wrong! olympians make it look too easy! =)
@HorseRider1995 i was just saying because of what you said about western at your other comments and im not arguing with im just stating my comment. and well my tranier had alwas told me that only jockey are people who race horses and he trains some horse that go to the Olympics but i geuss you can call thoses riders jockeys.
@xxi0love0horsesxx aw I wasn't arguing haha, sorry if it seemed that way and I honestly know nothing about western:L there arent many places in scotland if any that do it so its only english style really... yeah ano but we loosely call showjumpers jockeys too, you hear it in commentarys
yes i agree that show jumping is a wonder sport but western is just as hard because you do riening which is really fun also barrels and i know that because i ride english and western and the rider that are jumping are called riders not jockey those are people who race horses.. just letting you know in case you never knew.
@xxi0love0horsesxx I've never done western so i'd have no idea what its like but im sure as it is horseriding then it is also very difficult, this video has nothing to do with western though so I don't know why im having folk arguing about western on it. Western hasn't even been mentioned haha :L and jockey is a term used not just to describe race riders but other riders as well. At least it is at every yard ive been at.
best sport EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! i totally agree! all my friends think "Oh how hard can it be to just sit on a horse?" and my response is normaly "If it were only that simple!"
whoa i love this video! seems like you put a lot of effort into it! omg ikr this is not a easy sport dontcha hate it when people are like what sport do you do? horseback riding. oh thats not a sport. ugh people get hurt way more in horseback riding then in basketball or tennis so boo them!
@DaxonizAmazin Thanks :) I made this one a while ago too, I hate it when people think its easy ! I have done a lot of different sports and none have been as hard for me as horseriding :L
@MrsDanielTosh Thanks but as for footballers breaking necks, I assure you I have never ever heard or seen that happening. I think your assuming I am American which I'm not. I know American football is violent. But as I am Scottish then football is something different. I think it's called soccer in America.
you are defiantly right show jumping is NO WAY EASY i had a jumping competition for the first time in about a year and i had too migraines and fell of once ok the jumps weren't as big as the were in the video ^^^ but still i fell off on a 3 ft jump so yes i agree SHOW JUMPING IS NOT EASY
Well, I don't think jumping is amazing, or hard. I am western, and I jump my horses over logs, I never have problems. English is just a horrid way to ride.
@CrazyWesternRider You jump your horses over 'logs'. Which is absolutely no where near as difficult as jumping a horse round a complete course of 1m50+ jumps. You ride Western not English and therefore cannot give a proper opinion on Showjumping as it is an English discipline. I never slate Western riding so please keep your rude comments to yourself.
@CrazyWesternRider If English was so stupid then why is all the main English disciplines in the Olympics? Showjumping, Dressage AND Eventing all are in it. No Western disciplines are which suggests that English is superior. I have never tried Western so again this is not my personal opinion. Get off my videos and stop making rude comments about something you clearly have absolutely no idea about at all.
@CrazyWesternRider ahem excuse me? what you just said is a OPINION! YO KEEP YO MOUTH SHUT! you know how sometimes you need to keep your opinions to yourself??? anyway you have a stupid reason to fight about so bye!
@DaxonizAmazin Actully I have jumped over 4 foot with my Arab, and it WAS easy. I will hopefully put up some vid of me my Appy, and my Paso jumping atleast 4ft Western. I still think it is STUPID! And why use such a tight rein? Why pull so much. I have ridden my 2 year old Paso, Annee, with no bridle and she was PERFECT.
What I think a lot of people don't understand about riding is that it is %100 about communication. While riding is "unnatural" it is not anymore cruel than playing fetch with your dog who also would not "naturally" participate. Just like people, horses react to physical cues. Because most riders love their horses, they treat them as friends. With people we may flick them or tap them to say "hey, wake up, we're about to do something", same with horses. It doesn't mean we hurt, or force them.
@HorseRider1995 Yup because as much as sometimes we'd like to (eg. "Please! It's not a scary jump, it's only like a foot tall, and there are people watching! Please! I'll give you carrots!") we really can't. It doesn't work that way. It also bugs me when people assume they don't have fun. Again, like a dog playing fetch, they do have a lot of fun!
@HorseRider1995 I hate when people say we force them its sooo annoying like My horse loves to jump if he cant jump he is insane after a week one time i didnt jump him for a month he went insane cause he loves to show what he gots its a partner ship and its trust! thats what people dont understand
i cant do that yet becuase i am only 11 but one day i hope i can do that and get everything right and even enter the world cup when i am onder and i do like cross country
ok i dont know what the person at the top of this page has been smoking but i am a show jumper and i enter dressage, and i admit some horses are afraid of the jumps and most people do not care, but if you have a connection at all with your horse clearly you will be able to read the warning signals of refusal, such as say id ont know stopping, kicking and throwing the rider. it does not hurt the horse i refuse to use a whip on my horses, if i fall id rather check the horse than myself.
showjumping isnt amasing!!!! It hurts the horse really bad!!! Look at part 2:43 - 2:45, look at the horse eyes!! The horse is afraid!!! Afraid of to do something wrong as the rider take hard to the reins and hurts its mouth, or use the whip and hurts its body!!! It cruel!!!! THEY POOR ANIMALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =( . I have riden natruel horsemanship in 4 years now, so i know the horse body language very well!!!! And i can see that the horse is afraid, it show it with its eyes!!! =(
@turpoemmelie If you did showjumping you would realise most horses enjoy it. Yes some people are horrible to their horses and yes these people should be disqualified but just because one person hurts/frightens their horse doesnt mean everyone in showjumping does it. Please don't judge the whole sport by one bad practioner.
@HorseRider1995 sorry, when i was writing this i wasnt very clever. And now i have learned what you said. Im really sorry that i was so stupid to you, again sorry. And great video!! =)
@turpoemmelie yehh maybe you 'know horse body language' but some horses like it and tbh the person who made this video obv loves show jumping, keep your opinions to your self
showjumping isnt amasing!!!! It hurts the horse really bad!!! Look at part 2:43 - 2:45, look at the horse eyes!! The horse is afraid!!! Afraid of to do something wrong as the rider take hard to the reins and hurts its mouth, or use the whip and hurts its body!!! It cruel!!!! THEY POOR ANIMALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =(
@Marixxen2 I am well aware that it is difficult for the horses, of course it is. This video is showing how difficult showjumping is in the whole as many ignorant people think the humans just sit there and let the horse do the work.
@HorseRider1995 Of course, i totaly agree on that one. I am "higly experienced" when it comes to that and have heard it myself more then once. Yet, there is so many of the horses suffering when they don't want to jump, and nobody is disqualified even when they beat their horses... Last time I checked it was illegal to beat innocent animales: So how it comes to be all right even in a public competition, is very disterbing on the behalf og horses' welfare... i think
@Marixxen2 I agree with what your saying there. People who are cruel to their horses should be disqualified straight away. Ive ridden many jumping horses and they are willing to jump without the use of crops/spurs etc etc. If you have to use these then the horse must not want to do it. I firmly believe if a horse is brought up properly then all these gadgets are not needed. Sadly some cruel people ruin the image of an otherwise fun, enjoyable sport for both horses and riders.
@HorseRider1995 Amen. It must be some fun for horses to jump, I truly believe that too, but: I also think that joy if long gone when the horse needs to forced...
I hate the way proffesionals, when their horse stops or frightens at a jump, they either try to force the horse to jump from a bloody stand still or yank the reint till it's head comes off!
it's an interesting video, but must you really use every "cool" effect the video software program has? no offense, but I find it hard to watch because of that.. :/
@RedHyuuga fair enough but i made this video two years ago, i was like 13 at the time, my newer ones are not as full of effects because i dont like it
@HorseRider1995 I've just recently had this video course in school and the teacher mentioned this about that too many effects will destroy the movie, but I guess all is good since we all learn as long as we live :D
Um yeah, Football players break bones all the time.. I'm sorry but there are probably more injuries in football than in equestrian. "You don't see footballers breaking necks"? Really? Come on.. I'm a huge fan of both equestrian and football, but I gotta side with football on this one.
Well, unless by footballers you mean soccer players, then maybe your argument is valid... lol
@LightingInvoker I would think its equal really but tbh I dont know anything about American football, I wrote that because I know of about 6 or 7 people who have broken necks or collarbones that are clsoe to me. 12 people died in the UK alone eventing last year, I know american football is violent but I still dont think they woul break necks cos tbh it looks jsut like rugby except we dont wear all the padding crap , and i was talking about 'soccer' but im not american so its football.
@HorseRider1995 I'd say that broken collar bones and necks aren't as common, but it's happened. I'm Canadian and our "superbowl" is the Grey Cup and one of the players broke his leg (and they had to keep playing it back in slow montion, too). Eventing is so scary to watch!! Jumping immovable objects freaks the hell out of me. Deaths in the sport aren't surprising to me.
@LightingInvoker yeah i agree with u but i think her point is that when ur playing football ur not on top of a 1500 pound animal with a mind of its own! :)
Hey it is not like im against your aurgument but showjumping is harder than football cuz i dont see football in the olympics. I know many football players that pee their pants if a horse gets close to them never the less jump a what? four ft jump?????
well.. u havnt broke my neck just my wrist :( bucked off :P hurts specially as barebackk nd he was in gallopp wen i was in trot :OO awesomee vid .. It is a hard sport but is fun at the same timee :)
god i want to ride in the prand prix so bad when i get older.. to bad my family are not horse people and my only horse is a paint mare who i have to train on my own. thankfully my leason barn is wonderful but stilk
@isthatreallyyouetf im sure you'll do fine with her :) ive got a welsch cob section D gelding who ive broken in myself with no help at all and im taking him to his first shows in summer, yes theyre only caverswall and arent exactly big ones, but its a start and he loves jumping, he goes over everything, even things you dont want him to, so keep a positive head cuz youve had the guts to train your own horse instead of paying someone else to do it, and i can see you doing well with her :) good luk
@lottieluvs thanks :) ive looked at welsch cobs before. theyre so cewt :3 my mare indy, sadly will not jump anything higher that about a foot right now. shes doing better though.
@isthatreallyyouetf do you lunge her? cuz if you do try putting a little jump up for her as like a fun thing after a good work out and then give her loads of praise. That might work, sorry if it doesnt. You could always try and change the look of the jumps or make them into a spread?
@lottieluvs yes, i have tried that alot. she will avoid the jump even though sometimes it is just s ground pole. I think she might have a back problem? she has never really bucked so much before this. its geting out of hand i might havea vet check it out
@isthatreallyyouetf let me no how you go on with her, i hope theres nothing wrong with her cuz she sounds lovely, a bit cheeky but that just gives her character lol
@monsterenergycutiee WOW thanks! I never thought this would do so well since i made it in like an hour on WMM (the rubbishy video maker) loll but thanks a lot :D im glad people like this cos i don't have time to make any new videos :( school is evil making me study all the time:L and who wouldn't love horses and riding! thats the point to life loll
ohhh and btw horserider is hard i was on this pony / horse where i ride and i must of did my stirrups wrong coz in canter i came off head first and could of broke my neak annd in same lesson i came off into the jump and again she galloped the last jump and i fell off again :L wasnt my lucky dayy :// my mate came off at a chase me charlie and hurt her leg badly :S anyway great vid (: imma be more careful na lmao
1:00 I thort the jocky was gonna hit the wing! Phew!!
I go to Stretton Feilds and there's a Yard Show on in 3 weeks. Im gonna do the Show Jumping thing and, after that, I'm really worried!! I'm gonna record it so watch out for any new vids!!
@Lavonnster riding is well worse mateyy god u break legs can be killed havent u seen half the articles where ppl die !!! its well more worse than bloody football try riding for years fallin of breakin noses neaks legs arms ribs being paralized or killed then u will see how flamin ard it iz!!!!!!
@Lavonnster ohhhh another thing there are millions who have been badly hurt and in just plane lessons i did by fallin off in the winter when it nearly finished on to icey floor not rock hard but rather hard and i couldnt walk much the few days later it was painful so think be4 comeentin
It makes me so mad when people say that horse back riding is easy beacuse its not ecspecially jumping it us really hard what I tell them is I am an equestrian and have more muscle than you nd you play basketball or something like that
i LOVE this video...it sums up horseback riding!!!! Jumping is really hard and even when u think its hard u dont even no till u have a bad fall....trust me....
@538Hannah thankss:) i just made this to show all the annoying people that horseriding isnt easy ! does my head in when people say that and half the time they have never actually tried riding! I know i don't like bad falls:( i havent broken a bone or anything yet though but ive landed on fences before and that hurts :L
@HorseRider1995 hahaha your welcome.....ikr i hate people who just think its so easy and they havent even ridden b4!!!! i always ask people "how can 3000lb of muscle not be exercise???"
Thanks:) that's why I made this video cos it is so hard! Wow your from Germany , that's prettyy cool, ma mum loves Germany. Thanks again for thee comment:):)
barrelracer245- all riding styles are difficult, from what other people have told me , English is slightly more difficult but i don't know as i have never ridden Western because in Scotland no-one rides Western style. It is as hard as i make it seem but I am only oding form the English point of view because that is the style I ride in, no-one has said western is easy .
i love this video. riding a horse realy is not that easy especially jumping. i like that you pointed out that riding is not easy. great job!!!(=(}--{)
you should always let go of the reins when you land, it annoys me when professionals dont! very good video by the way, its message is very true aswell! :D
not gonna lie but did the rider of the horse at 0:42 really expect the horse to jump it after he stopped? no wonder the horse reared !

I have riden natruel horsemanship in 4 years now, so i know the horse body language very well!!!! And i can see that the horse is afraid, it show it with its eyes!!! =(

@turpoemmelie If you did showjumping you would realise most horses enjoy it. Yes some people are horrible to their horses and yes these people should be disqualified but just because one person hurts/frightens their horse doesnt mean everyone in showjumping does it. Please don't judge the whole sport by one bad practioner.

and this is a video showing how dificult show jumping must be for the riders? take a look at the horses...
Marixxen2 10 months ago
@Marixxen2 I am well aware that it is difficult for the horses, of course it is. This video is showing how difficult showjumping is in the whole as many ignorant people think the humans just sit there and let the horse do the work.
HorseRider1995 10 months ago
@HorseRider1995 Of course, i totaly agree on that one. I am "higly experienced" when it comes to that and have heard it myself more then once. Yet, there is so many of the horses suffering when they don't want to jump, and nobody is disqualified even when they beat their horses... Last time I checked it was illegal to beat innocent animales: So how it comes to be all right even in a public competition, is very disterbing on the behalf og horses' welfare... i think
Marixxen2 10 months ago
@Marixxen2 I agree with what your saying there. People who are cruel to their horses should be disqualified straight away. Ive ridden many jumping horses and they are willing to jump without the use of crops/spurs etc etc. If you have to use these then the horse must not want to do it. I firmly believe if a horse is brought up properly then all these gadgets are not needed. Sadly some cruel people ruin the image of an otherwise fun, enjoyable sport for both horses and riders.

@HorseRider1995 Amen. It must be some fun for horses to jump, I truly believe that too, but: I also think that joy if long gone when the horse needs to forced...

I hate the way proffesionals, when their horse stops or frightens at a jump, they either try to force the horse to jump from a bloody stand still or yank the reint till it's head comes off!

Um yeah, Football players break bones all the time.. I'm sorry but there are probably more injuries in football than in equestrian. "You don't see footballers breaking necks"? Really? Come on.. I'm a huge fan of both equestrian and football, but I gotta side with football on this one.
Well, unless by footballers you mean soccer players, then maybe your argument is valid... lol
LightingInvoker 1 year ago
@LightingInvoker I would think its equal really but tbh I dont know anything about American football, I wrote that because I know of about 6 or 7 people who have broken necks or collarbones that are clsoe to me. 12 people died in the UK alone eventing last year, I know american football is violent but I still dont think they woul break necks cos tbh it looks jsut like rugby except we dont wear all the padding crap , and i was talking about 'soccer' but im not american so its football.
HorseRider1995 1 year ago
@HorseRider1995 I'd say that broken collar bones and necks aren't as common, but it's happened. I'm Canadian and our "superbowl" is the Grey Cup and one of the players broke his leg (and they had to keep playing it back in slow montion, too). Eventing is so scary to watch!! Jumping immovable objects freaks the hell out of me. Deaths in the sport aren't surprising to me.

isthatreallyyouetf 1 year ago
@isthatreallyyouetf im sure you'll do fine with her :) ive got a welsch cob section D gelding who ive broken in myself with no help at all and im taking him to his first shows in summer, yes theyre only caverswall and arent exactly big ones, but its a start and he loves jumping, he goes over everything, even things you dont want him to, so keep a positive head cuz youve had the guts to train your own horse instead of paying someone else to do it, and i can see you doing well with her :) good luk

@lottieluvs thanks :) ive looked at welsch cobs before. theyre so cewt :3 my mare indy, sadly will not jump anything higher that about a foot right now. shes doing better though.
isthatreallyyouetf 1 year ago
@isthatreallyyouetf do you lunge her? cuz if you do try putting a little jump up for her as like a fun thing after a good work out and then give her loads of praise. That might work, sorry if it doesnt. You could always try and change the look of the jumps or make them into a spread?
lottieluvs 1 year ago
@lottieluvs yes, i have tried that alot. she will avoid the jump even though sometimes it is just s ground pole. I think she might have a back problem? she has never really bucked so much before this. its geting out of hand i might havea vet check it out
isthatreallyyouetf 1 year ago

barrelracer245- all riding styles are difficult, from what other people have told me , English is slightly more difficult but i don't know as i have never ridden Western because in Scotland no-one rides Western style. It is as hard as i make it seem but I am only oding form the English point of view because that is the style I ride in, no-one has said western is easy .
