  • lol, don't N/H trainers make their horses run round and round and round in a little circle un til they "join-up" usually dripping with sweat, re-name a whip "the carrot stick" just by painting it orange and charging an extra $40.00, then play a bunch of pointless "games" with odd aids that are hard to transfer to ridden cues leading to a very confused horse... Endo you are WAY better than any of them, I have been to many a N/H seminar and would never treat the horse the way they do

  • I love your method of handling problem horses. They don't get to be problems by themselves, its usually human error. So I guess they should be called 'human induced problem horses'. But anyways, love your method. I love that facility. and I love your black beauty word overrides. ;)

  • I love this vid...so impressive the way you rode through that while barely moving, and made it look so easy. I enjoyed your comments and how you out smarted him.

  • How do you get on like that? It's brilliant. I struggle getting on horses over 16hh WITH stirrups!! Nevermind without! Lol. I'm not very tall! :) how do u just jump up on them so easily?

  • people, horses are not nice creatures. There are some who are bullies and just want to be the one on top so you gotta be firm with them and this dude is a real master at straightening them out as he uses horse psychology! pure genius! My country, these horses get lotsa big fat slaps on the muzzle and it solves most of the problems but its wrong in a way that the horse becomes scared and the relationship is based on fear and not respect but it works well for the riders here in Asia.

  • Wish I could get on AND stay on like you do!!

  • Ha ha, the stallion was trying to impress the ladies, but, whoa there, that guy was still on his back, and the horse is like, "well nevermind, I meant to have him there." Yeah, he sure was your b*tch.

  • Or is it just positive experience and terms when she finishes the program? Or is it in her case praising her when she walks forward, and just sitting quietly while she melts down?

  • You talk about the horse running a program, do you just let them burn it out then make it on your terms?How would that abort the initiation of the next trigger of the rearing program? I ask because I have a mare who refuses to go forward, before she came to me they cropped and spurred her - now she melts down if anyone has a whip while I am in saddle. Even with out the whip she will randomly stop, balk, shake her head, back and then go forward. Is there anyway to help her reprogram?

  • well you are the first rider on youtube who had been on a rearing horse and gave them their head!!! i cant even begin to tell you how many people pull back which results in a flip over. however what i would do differently is...i wouldnt let him get away with rearing, i wouldnt let him think im just gonna let him do it. when he reared id kick him up and keep his feet moving, otherwise hes gonna think he can rear every time you get on him. but i do things the Ray Hunt way.

  • bloody amazing riding, you stick to your job so well and i dont see why anyone should give you hassle about it x

  • "The horse broke into a sweat". That's no biggy - he was getting himself worked up. My 17 year old connemara pony sweats a lot when I ask him to do something he doesn't want to do (like move or bend to the right properly :P). Why people would get annoyed by that I honestly don't know...

    Anyway, I'd love to be able to stick on like you did! (I usually get bucked with, or he spooks and tanks off across the sand school with me, before realising that he's using energy :P)

  • You're my new role model.

  • move his feet like a doment mare wood

  • Ha ha, I'm an NH guru and I grew up with and train racehorses. 3rd generation in fact. I do wonder why no ground work first, but... also understand eventually you do have to ride it out. Oh and NH is ALL about working the horse.  Long rides and wet saddleblankets is the mantra, not kissypoo please be a nice horsy. Maybe you should check it out, ya never know you might find some techniques you like. I was literally dragged to a clinic, and it changed a lot of my previous methods.

  • Wow O.o pretty impressive riding you've got a good sense of balance. I really wanna know how you get on like that haha. Xx

  • Hes like "come'on lets play, here I'll be the black Stallion."

  • Hes like "come'on lets play, here I'll be the black Stallion."

  • awesome riding. They need more people like you on the race circuit.

  • wanna take on my horse for a bit? i don't think he's as bad as this one. just spooky and impatient.

  • i can vault onto my horse like that (she lies lol)

  • Thank You!!!! :)

  • "All my friends are dead or their dying" Someone PLEASE tell me who does this song?

  • Death Defying - Hoodoo Gurus

  • Excellant job !

  • That was great! You really helped that horse. Great video. Thanks.

  • Great job staying on through that! However, I can't help but wonder why this horse is rearing like that. He's obviously trying to tell you that somethings wrong.

    Treating the symptom (rearing), won't get far unless you diagnose the actual problem.

  • @ExclusiveEquine I totally agree with you. A pity he does not explain in the beginning WHY this horse has a problem. Treating the symptom is not as effective as treating the problem thas lies behind. I hope the horse does have serious back-problems or something. Great riding, though, amazing how he stays on!

  • @stellabeumer I think "problem" was it's a young racehorse full of beans. Just needed a little discipline and to learn he'll get to stretch his legs... when the rider allows it.

  • @ExclusiveEquine his problem is he doesnt want to be ridden. and to the guy who made the video, how old is the horse and how many rides has he had before this video was taken?

  • Just a bit of curiosity here,

    Have you ever tried with one of these outlaws to just go back to square one and retrain them?

    What a shame to let them get that out of hand at all.

    Still this confrontation thing is apt to get you hurt at some point.

    If you get hurt or the horse gets hurt it's all for nothing.

  • I've ridden more than my fair share of nasty rearers, and was suitably impressed to see this video. Love the method (likely more effective in the long term than many others), and man, I wish my seat was that good.

  • My favorite part about watching your videos is not the content (although I do enjoy your methods), but the shmucks who post a comment full of total CRAP and get upset when you out-common-sense them.

  • I've ridden a few problem horses myself...but I ride with short stirrups for buckers and spinners, usual length for the generally stroppy ones and no-stirrups for rearers...usually cause they are the ones who use people as landing pads..lol! Why do you rides rearers with such long stirrups??? I've just not come across it before..

  • no stirrups...

  • Ooop sorry...I was just being incredibly dim...common problem with me..carry on..carry on...lol!

  • @endospink thought no stirrups was my thing. guess not. now to the comment about the horse trying to tell you somthing. yea he was telling you get off my back. thats why he reared. you stayed on he gave up. it didn't work for him problem solved. nice job. impresive riding.

  • @endospink -I get stares when I ride without stirrups...only feel the need for pedals hunting. LUV2U!!

  • @kaeso100 Long stirrups make it easier to put all your weight up front so you dont get rolled!

  • what exactly did you do to stay on ? Were you holding onto the neck or twist the head slightly?

  • EMERGENCY DISMOUNT....

    nice vault on :)

  • you could always sell the horse to a circus; they would love him with all that nonstop rearing! my sister in her younger days was fearless with cranky horses, once, when she was riding a rearer; she smacked him between the ears with a short crop with slapper end which made a sharp slapping sound, so every time he attempted to rear, she popped him right between the ears, and after a few rears, he never did it again. didnt hurt him, didnt terrify him, just got his attention right smartly.

  • hahaha lol i tried doin taht to my horse but nothin works with him we asked heaps of horse people but then now he is good lol

  • You are brave - good riding there

  • very well done! :) i admire how u dont interfere u wait til the horse realises its pointless

  • that horse is gorgeous and looks so powerfull.

    he didnt seem to want to stop!

  • subscribed :)

  • Brilliant really admire your work there .Great to see .best wishes.R

  • What does NH (NH Guru's) stand for?

  • :-) sorry me again..... what is the 2nd tune on this vid. Just love both songs

  • Hoodoo Gurus , Death Defying

  • I think i love you :-p but seriously wicked horsemanship aside, love the music what is it and who's it by??

  • Sky high by Jigsaw

  • i notice how you say you didnt bring him down b/c of the gravel. now had it been in an area with soft footing, would you have? i dont see how you'd be able to do that without hurting yourself.

  • Soft ground, he`d be goin down..

  • ...im so confused

  • AMEN! the stupid egg 'trick' is hogwash and we all know you're an AWESOME horseman... and I agree with your N.H. spoof where you're on the phone with "Pat" and the final answer is... "At some point people have to get ON their horses!" AMEN!!

  • If he rears so much, why dont you use the method - "when he rears, crack and egg flat on the poll of his head" he will think he hit his head and come down thinking he is bleeding. It works usually al lthe time. Do it over and over and you might just break his habit of rears instead of sitting there and doing nothing.

  • That`s not a method, it a load of hogwash that`s been passed alone for years to the naive. Horses have`nt got the brain capacity to associate blood as something to be feared so it would be a complete waste of time.

  • So Casper - did you watch the video to the end? The rearing does stop from the rider doing nothing because the horse achieves absolutely nothing from rearing, which means there's no point in continuing the habit. Just common sense really - as opposed to your "egg method"....

  • I don't understand how you'd be carrying an egg with you anyways if the problem ever DID arise... I mean... who randomly carries an egg with them?

  • thats a sweet way to get on your horse LOL :P Awesome.. Nice horse by the way!.. bit scary to be on when it starts too rear.. lol

  • Id love to see you get on my warmblood like that :) your welcome anytime lol. fantasic riding btw. x

  • i have never seen anyone mount a horse like that before... very nice. :D

  • I see from this video why my riding instructors referred to rearing as a lack of forward impulsion. He was really backing up a lot. Bet youre glad he diddnt come down on that septic tank lid :)

    It looks like he has gotten rewarded for rearing by having his rider get (thrown) off. When that doesnt work, what's the point? U still have a ways to go with him. Hope it goes safely.

  • unfortunitely very few people on earth could stay on for that !wow! i believe that it does teach the horse they've won when theyfall off in that kinda situation which would explain why this guy is a professional

  • why don#t u have stirrups?

  • Indians never had any...

  • hahaha

  • Ten points for common sense.

  • testa ta av alla hjälptyglar, det är bara onädigt skit

  • Jag lyssnar inte på amatörer utan videor av dem själv

  • woah, your vault at the beginnign was pretty good :)

  • Nice work!

  • kool way of mounting

  • Nice job here, and you also have an extremely helpful website too. I appreciate the information and have accessed it several times for training information. I work with a few off-the-track TBs. The TBs have always held a special place in my heart.

  • that was awesome! sometimes they need a little patience and understanding! :-D

  • Great job staying on. So all you need to do is to Let them know whos boss by letting them rear to get it out of there system, then when they have finished and want to walk on. Dont let them untill they are ready. Im going to give this a try, i have a mare who does this alot and i have had her checked over and she is in perfect health. I think its just misbehaviour. usually i have to sit and bare it then carry on afterwoulds. Well dont staying on, Rearing horses are dangorous. Very well done!. xx

  • Yeah, exact same thing happens between me and my horse. He's checked all over, he's just being a dipshit.

  • Endo... are you coming to the states again?  Next time would you let EVERYONE interested..know.. thanks.

  • Ah a Thoroughbred stallion with love on his mind and not in the mood for work. I love Thoroughbreds, they are all heart but they are bad about rearing. My hunter mare can give that stallion a run for his money any day in the rearing department. She is 11 and perfect in every way except cold weather when she stand up and wave her front legs just like your Black Beauty there.

  • I have broken many problem, young and also wild horses in my life and I agree that the mustangs can really buck. However, I have encountered a few warmbloods that buck like air jordan. They are so powerfully built and rearing and bucking is there thing. Two years ago I ended up with a broken tiba and fibia. The horse was rehabed from a retired hunter with a bucking problem to a sucessful amature dressage horse, but he was a challange and a half!

  • It looked like this horse reared when he saw something spooky? Since I value my bones and rearing is very dangerous, I would have worked de-sensisizing this horse on the ground first - just my version. Also I suspect that you will have rearing episodes when he faces a new environment. That said, good job staying on, boy was that horse mad you didn't come off!

  • I don't think he had spooky on his mind, there were fillies on the walking machine in front of him..

  • i have a horse like that. name's Jack. -_- and rightly so. He went forewards instead of backwards though.

  • holy shitt! That's amazing! And the horse is really beautiful :]

  • wow thats amazing i thought he was gonna flip backwards lol, he is soooooo handsom, i will sub

  • if i was a horse, i would love to rear :]

  • Well done you!!! He looked much happier on day 3,

    You got some sticky butt there! x

  • wow good rideing:)

  • beautiful work!

  • WOW! STYLISH! Lovin' your calm & humorous approach to the horse...who is he???

    p.s. What are the music trax pls?

  • good job =]

  • Amazing that you staid in the saddle!

  • wow! that's a rearer! wow!

    he thought "awh, that doesn't work anymore... "grr, awh well i'm just gonna have to obey! "

  • MAN!! That horse rears HIGH!!

  • Great technique! He is lucky he found you.

  • At least he doesn't buck!!! I've got a crazy 6 year old arab who rears up at "scary" objects, but he's never reared over and over like that and certainly never that high, but what I do is as soon as his feet touch the ground I make him turn circles. It gets him out of it really quick and helps him focus better and overcome his fear. Of course, your horse would just fall over if you tried to do that, so kudos for hanging in there!!!!

  • what brand of super glue do you use? AMAZING riding!

  • I liked the way you mounted at the end. I have never seen that before. Awesome.

  • hey

    i have a 16hh thoroughbred who is really well behaved

    however at our local show ground he rears uncontrollable when (who he shares his feild with) a pony is taken into the ring to compete.

    We are trying to get him out of the habbit and it is only at this one place he rears . . do you have any advice to calm him down?

  • He's gotten to attached to the pony. He's only trying to get control so he can get to his friend. The only way is to split them up either from the paddock or stop showing them together.

  • Honestly, i'd much rather deal with a rearer than a bucker.

  • Great job on hanging on but what is with the "Black Beauty" thing popping up two different times in the video?

  • If you look up close Black Beauty is nicley covering up @@XX@@ a swear basically lol

  • endo..will you marry me?

  • i wish you lived in england, my horse is a rearer. she used to rear at the race track and since i bought her she rears in the school, but she goesa  bit further than yours she goes over backwards each time so the only option is to exit quick. and help or advice greatfully recived. i think your riding ability is ace

  • if he flipped you would just get smashed, as trainers we have a responsibility to teach others ways not to get hurt or killed.

  • Yep, get a trainer and vet out because horses don't flip for fun, there is a problem there that needs to be addressed. You might be quick enough to dismount in time but you only have to mis-judge once and you could end up in a wheelchair. Be careful.

  • Thats beautiful, poetry in motion. Some of your ideas and techniques remind me a lot of an old Aussie bloke Tom Roberts. He's dead now but he has some books still kicking around. His greatest accolade was to be a thinking horseman. I think I am thinking. lol

  • wow. how the hell did you stay on. especially with no stirrups. hahah

  • Because he's the best horseman in the world.

  • LOL

    love the censoring!!

  • awesome

  • Out of curiosity, why no saddle/stirrups? Is this a training technique, or just the way you ride?

  • Just the way I ride...

  • I like riding problem horses with just bareback pads, I think it leaves less to get tangled in, in the even of a real mishap. I feel safer. Not to mention there is a great deal more contact with your seat and legs.

  • When a horse rears and falls on his back, is it on purpose or is it because he lost balance?

  • Rarely it is on purpose but it does happen. Most of the time it's because they lose balance.

  • woww, it's amazing! Beautiful! Good Job!

  • Ab fab! Monty Roberts 'eat your heart out'. THIS is true horsemanship - fantastic. Endo rocks!

  • Absolutely fab...Monty Roberts 'eat your heart out'. THIS is horsemanship at it 's very best. Endo rocks.

  • Anybody who thinks that jumping off a horse and beating it for something like this is extremely narrow minded. The best form of training is through understanding and applying basic horse psychology and it doesn't get any better than what this video is showing to us. Excellent job.

  • great song selection!!! man i remember listening to this good stuff in the 60s

    "if theres one thing i can find oooowii somethign soemthing something oooowii"

  • lol

    2:22

    when he put his ears back (after u text

    that)

    he was like WHAT

    lol

  • OH LOOK the horse got to stop which is exactly what he wanted... to not leave the barn. I would never get on a baby, green horse, problem horse, or even my wonderful show horse IN the barn and walk to the arena unless it was a 1/4 mile hike. and then guess what?! we would never have a barn sour horse on our hands. and I didn't have to get mad, or beat him, or grab neck. Then when I do need to ride from the barn and into the show arena, it's not even in his/her head to rear.. :)

  • When you train horses for other people (like Paul does) you gotta train them to do what your customers want to do with them, otherwise you're outta the job. This is a racehorse and he has to be ridden like all the other racehorses - going to and from the barn -like in this video, otherwise he's dog meat, simple as that. Besides, the horse wasn't barn sour, he's a stallion wanting to make out with the mares in the near by walking machine and preferably get rid of his rider first..lol - no chance!

  • Obviously you train only your horse. Again as the other guy said, when you ride for a client, you need the horse to be right for THEM, not you. So, you ride through it and move on. I have had the joy of riding an Andalusian stallion for a client that another trainer f'd up by creating a rearing habit. You must ride through it...the owner had to chase him forward with a longe whip - he reared up 15 times my first ride, but we got him to be completely safe for her to ride again.

  • By the way, nice mounting tricks! lol

  • wow

  • when ours reared we always walk him in circles. then try again, and etc. nice. how is the horse doing as of now

  • I'm not sure, this was a while ago and haven't heard anything for a while..

  • ok. kool. hope he's doing better

  • lol i never fell of my crazy horseys,,rearing and bucking, idky how i stay on ._.

  • that was ridiculous after he Reared for the 3 time i would have taken a crop and beat him over the head till he stops.. it is a consequence for rearing and it doenst hurt the horse!!!

  • that my ignorant friend would not have helped at all (unless you want to make your horse spooky and headshy) in fact it probably would land your butt in the dirt were it obviously belongs, since you seem to be so imcompetant about how to train a horse

    and what do you mean it DOESN'T hurt??? your beating the horse over the head with a crop??? have you ever been hit with one before??

  • Hahaaa

    Then you'll have a horse that rears AND is head-shy!

  • great video showing how to stay calm during this incident and a way to correct it. my only concern was mounting indoors with a known rearer. that scared me. otherwise, nice video.

  • wow, ur awesome, n Most importantly, you are the leader! [:

  • wow! ur a good rider!!!!!!!! wowowoowowwow!!!

    i stad on my horse when she dose that but shes never done it THAT BAD!! VERY GOOD JOB!!

  • most horses do the things they do due to owners, in my opinion, how is he doing now he is back home?

  • WOW!!! Simply awesome! You're a great rider!

  • why didnt u start out on the ground first??

    some horsemanship there...o.0

  • my horse reard up nd fell on me cuz he didnt want to go forward this is wat i did nd it worked ok ppl wo dnt have horses u wnt understand but this person will get a good 1 1/2 inch long spers nd jab him with them to make him go if he still does it keep da spers nd get a crop nd when u feel him start acten like a butt hit him in tha but u kno nd if he goes up hit his head with it nd he will learn i did it nd it works nd a lil beating wont hurt huim cuz this can be dangerous

  • hmm, lets see if Obama can do a better job with education over there because reading this tells me 8yrs of Bush is taking it's toll on America's youth.

  • lol, i can't read it either.

  • That is funny. Thank you for noticing that!

  • LOL. I don't think it was Bush's doing, and in my honest opinion- I think Mr. Obama has already lost our country for us, or is WELL on his way with his brigade he has brought in.

    (I know what you mean about the above commenter though. ;) That's the new America for you, for sure.)

    LOVE this video.. I have watched it over and over again. I absolutely admire your riding skills.

  • I wish YOUR reply had a "thumbs-up" button.

  • I really liked your quiet consistent approach to the rearing. I think you did a fab job. The only thing I would comment on was your use of the word 'biatch'. It doesn't make you look as professional as you obviously seem to be. :-)

  • ..I wanna learn to get up on my horse like that..

    I'll practice.

    *no comment about the rearing*

  • He knows you and won't do it again - with you.....but......how good a rider is his owner?

  • good, you're really good in this :):)

    btw can i ask, what's the 1st song?? pls:)

    (sry for my bad english :)

  • "Man from Hong Kong" Movie Theme

  • good, you're really good in this :):)...

    btw can i ask, what is the 1st song??? pls :)...

    (sry for my bad english :)..

  • he is cute is he a tennessee walker or sadlle bred cus hes bobbing hs head just wandering

  • what is hybrid horsemanship.. and you are a GREAT rider!

  • Hi endo, hope you don't mind me testing writing a comment here. I answer people on my videos and my comments are not posted. Just checking to see if it is when I write on someone elses. Anyone know why this would be? I have all these rediculous comments that I want to answer and can't? Regards to all. Oh, had a client in Ireland fix a real screwed Horse the other day with your Tap/ Regards

  • great balance

  • i like how you swing her leg like that to get on the horse

  • Amazing job and excellent riding! And I love the face he gives you at 2:14 while looking back, He's like, "DAMNIT! He's still there!!" Lmao.

  • What kind of horse is he??

  • He is a TB

  • Good job! You're a great trainer. Take that, parelli! ha ha.

  • I love how you mounted :)

    Great job handling the horse.

  • nice job, rearers are a pain in the ass to do deal with.

    i love your mounting scene, i wish i could get on like that (:

  • very nice job!! maybe you can tell me how to stop my morab gelding from...well its really hard to explane.when i try to walk him he will always turn and go towards my other horse jewel. he also bucks and spins. please help!!!

  • all hybrid horsemanship works ace (i no) iv tried it

  • "ill probally get bashed by the N/H followers"

    hahaha, that was amazing :) your a brilliant rider, if only there where more like you out there who can work with horses like that.

  • Hi - your a very competent rider, the horse was going up pretty vertical at times, but you did have the knack of getting your arms/hands under the neck to keep from sliding off. Have you had a horse go back over on you before?

  • yep, a few..

  • WOW amazing how you got him to calm down....I'd be terrified if a horse was rearing like that with me...luckily I've never had it happen tho...well that bad at least. My mare was acting silly and refused to leave the barn area...started to back up and then I felt her rear only a lil bit...but I sat deep in the saddle and made her walk forword. With horses you need a lot of patience!

  • very nicely handled!! and he learns really fast godd him and good you!!!

  • nice job!! fuck all those other people! nice work with him!

  • Excellent riding. Most people would not think to use a technique like that but just get frustrated and wang the bugger on the head. Love the way you handled him without using pain as so many trainers do. Good job. Noticing the comment on NH at the end; I agree with you completely. They're far too sensitive. The nicely nicely approach does not always work. It depends on the horse.

  • so do i i have just been rollocted for commeting on a rearing bucking horse. i sed the man did a good job sitting the horse he gave no mouth pressure or anythin then once the horse had finished he got it going forwards. and some girl who had a picture of her riding with no saddle or bridle called me immature and swore alot lol. some people just cant bear others views

  • Read through some of the comments, lol! All the haters probably wouldn't have stayed on the first 5 seconds of that tantrum. Which brings me to a question, do you EVER come off? I have a pretty good seat, but I'm also pretty sure I would have come off of that...the thing was vertical! And I for one got a great kick out of your commentary. Great job, as always.

  • 10 out of 10 for elegencee with those rearss loll

    u havee aceee balancee :D

  • That was incredible

  • This is the perfect cure... anyone who has ever ridden a rearer knows this. What the horse wants is to get rid of his rider.
