  • i love that!

  • ONTEM 3 ANOS SEM EIGHT BELLES EU A AMO E SINTO UMA TRISTEZA NAO TER CONHECIDO ELA EM VIDA, MAIS QUERO IR VISITAR ELA ONDE ELA ESTA DESCANSANDO, REST IN PEACE

  • OMG!!='/(LLL)

  • It was a shame that Eight Bells died on that track. It was truly a depressing day after hearing about it. If I could go back in time I would save every horse that died on that track. Sadly nobody has the power to go back and change things. She will always be remembered. Never let her spirit die.

  • Such a strong little filly with such a strong heart. I remember watching this race thinking she was going to win:) she had a lot of will power:)

    We're going to miss this little girl greatfully but she's in a better place running along many other race horses and winning races up above blessing this ground we live on:)

  • @TheNurseWhoLovesHim thank you =]

  • whats the song

  • Comment removed

  • @oliviaaelliott

    hey fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

  • @oliviaaelliott i will block further comments if this continues. thank you.

  • nope she died because the owner gave her STERIODES in her muscles up front near her chest with got to heavy for her and she fell heart her fetlock and thats why

  • Rest in peace Eight Belles. You were too beautiful for this world.

  • Poor freakin' horse. She wouldn't have died....She would've lived.

  • Thats mean! they didn't ave to kill her! they could of fixed her, sold her and she would still be alive living a happy life as a pet to some little girl or boy and she would be love!

  • its really depressing on how young she was when she died.... :( only 3 years old.....

  • screw you man! she had heart and she ran it out to literal extension!

    SHE DIED, BEING FORCED, TO DO SOMETHING WE WANTED HER TO DO!

    only, at first she ran and she LOVED it, and it showed - she beat world champs, only to die in a race in second to a horse on steroids.

    thank you for doing this, i did the same basic thing but no one liked it ;0) oh well....

    thank you, we ALL still love her

  • i appreciate your video response but sadly do not take video responses and have different opinions on eight belles and her death =] (i do not think you are wrong...just difference of opinion) thank you for checking out the video...yours was very nice to...but as i said...nothing personal i do not accept video responses from outside authors =]

    -TwoPoint

  • U ASS HOW COULD U SAY THAT

  • RIP Baby Girl

  • ive done a lot of research in books and on the internet. and her legs could've been put in casts. but she would have had to wear a padded harness around her torso to suspened her in the air to keep pressure off of her legs so that they would heal. even after they healed she would have had to gone through like years of theraputic training to get her legs strong enough again. its just better to put them down so that they don't have to go through pain.

  • I disagree..should have at least tried it..Eight Belles is worth it..It's just so sad!

  • i agree with you dont get me wrong. but i mean think of it as one of your closest pets.. would you rather them go to heaven where this is no pain or stay here on earth and suffer? think about that. Im not being rude so please please dont take it that way.

  • Comment removed

  • sadly no...ive looked into it a lot as an equine medicine enthusiast and it would have been inhumane to even try and savae her. she was injured in a different way then barbaro...and even in that situation i believe keeping a horse alive in that much pain is not something that should be done under any circumstances

  • she got euthanized on my relative's birthday D:

  • She got euthanized the day after my horse, he got euthanized 2 May 2008

  • im so sorry may he/she Rest In Peace :(

  • Two years later and this still makes me sad.

  • nice video... but i hate this sport.

    poor horses, they should be "free" without dangerous sports.

  • i agree. but the "free" part should not be in parenthasees

  • i totally agree pseudogroove..and the comment "atleast her last run was a good one" ?seriously .. guess u like bullriding, dog fights

  • are you telling the truth about dog fights

  • wtf?!?!?! where did dog fights come from?

  • Put the whores of the mother, sister, daughter, grandmother, girlfriend, wife to go.

    Engage the tail of them.

    Racing is cowardice, as well as other events that abuse animals.

    I hate humans.

    Especially those idiots who abuse animals.

    Death to all those idiots.

    And the gay owner of the Eight Bells.

  • agreed.

  • agreed.

  • u have no clue theese were good people who ran her in the derby cuz of her talent and thought she could win yes there was money involved but they did not race her solely on that reason and no good respectable trainer or owner wants to see their horse breack down n u kno why she broke down cuz comming off the pace she clipped heels which she had a habit of doing and you can obviously see the outcome!!!

  • aww this is so sad.

    i hate seeing beautiful horses go off like that.

    at least her last race was a very good run.

  • thanks...yeah she was so beautiful and talented.

  • this is so sad shes from my state to and i went to one her races and she was an amazing race horse everyone in de was so sad about her death

  • auu thats kewl...i never saw her race prior to the 134th kd, but she looked like an amazing runner with a great heart that loved what she did. its a shame to see her gone like this!

  • This video is beautiful

  • thank you, check out TwoPoints other vids!

  • real effin tasteful you idiot

  • You are a disrespectful asshole.

  • uuuhhhh.... i asked... but no reply. 2pp wat is the song? thx

  • It's listed. It's by Uri Brener. The Album is

    A Walk. The song is Comptine D`un Autre ete-

    L`Apre

  • sorry, im in the moving process and show season is coming up so i havent had much time to get on here, thanks SbGASQUE for answering. It is also by Yann Teirson, thats who i got this one from =D

  • poor poor thing...

  • I just wanted all of you to know that it's in the Bible and quite clear that horses carry a lot of meaning and that when something happens to a horse terrible things happen. I would be very careful the next time I say anything bad about a human or a horse. FYI

  • thank you!! finally someone who doesnt have to cuss, and can manage to bring a good christian moral into this! thanks for the comment!

  • Thank you and I have been watching this video each and every day since you put it on u-tube. I can't wait for others to come out by you. The music I found and I love. What happened to this horse just should never have happened and it's really to bad.

  • "stop leaving gaay comments on my vids please!"

    Were same-sex users soliciting sex in the comments section of your video? If not, I suggest you improve your own grip on the English language.

    I nevertheless appreciate your video. Good choice of music!

  • lol, okay then bellatrix, "PLEASE STOP LEAVING USELESS COMMENTS!!!!!"

  • Maybe someone can tell me where to find the 8 belles T-shirt. I would like to have one.

  • i think that the very people that love animels and all the tree huggers of the world belive in animal rights and save the trees.but it is o.k to abort a baby.fetus they called them..ppl make me sick!a baby has more of a right to live then any animel with no soul.think about it!!!

  • Wuts the music??

  • great video. thanks man

  • thanks

    =D

  • and sorry. :) we'll be fine, we with our friend, animal lovers with this horse:(:(:( but asking again: what u will coose if u need. sorry because i was a litlle rude, i was angry when i hve seen the first time the movie. and sry about my not perfect english:)

  • huh im confused.... and no problem, if i sound rude, its cause a whole bunch of people on youtube are getting in my face about my comments, I'm entitiled to my opinion sorry if they dont like it! i have studied riding and horses and i have my opinions from what i have learned, sorry if those people dont like it, anyway, i'm confused by your question

  • cmon dudes is just a horse, today a friend of mine died... only 15 years, and ypu fukink pissed of because a fucking horse died. how much costs that horse? 100.000$? 200000$ 1.000.000? a horse haves a price but a human life no

  • I totally feel sorry for the horse and the owners, but what about the Fat Body riding the poor thing,, prolly why his/her ankles broke.. Anyway take care and be safe

  • uhhh if he was too fat for her, then she wouldnt have won alote of races. and thats not even the person who ran her in the races...

  • @kyleekowgirl

    fuck of if you cant be nice

  • @oliviaaelliott

    What the hell did i do? I mean seriously.. i didn't say anything mean. Read my comment again. I posted that comment freakin forever ago... and what i said wasnt even mean. Please grow up. Your comment saying fuck over and over again shows your not very mature.

  • @kyleekowgirl

    how old are you and then if you tell me i will tell you and im so sorry

    NOOOOTOTTT11!!!!!!

  • @oliviaaelliott

    Im 16. I really hope your not older then that. Cause you dont act very mature hun

  • The music is also by Uri Brener. The album is A Walk. Your can get it and listen over and over. it's really beautiful.

  • I admit I knew nothing about Eight Belles before the hype leading up to the Derby. (It's usually the only race I watch every year.) But as I started learning about her, I fell in love. (Girls rule, boys drool!) She was a beautiful girl, & even more so when she was doing what she appeared to love...racing. I'm sure the sport needs some "fixing"; what sport doesn't? All in all, I think it was just an unfortunate tragedy. My compliments on your tribute; my condolences to Eight Belles' "family".

  • Eight Belles you shouldnt care bout if someone new her or not but the fact that shes gone now RIP Eight Belles

    She died doing what she did best Rest In Peace

  • yeah it was sad and all, but the funny thing is

    that nobody heard of eight belles until she was dead, now every body claims to have "known" her.

    and u can lie and say "well i knew who she was", but uk ur a leir, people follow this stuff and knew who she was, other just want to be part of the crowd

  • That was a beautiful video.

  • thanks

  • Wonderful!!! It made me cry!! Rest in peace Eight Belles!!! I'm glad there are people who would make things like this!! It really means something to me! Thank you so very much!!!

  • thanks

  • It is funny to me that you dont like rodeo yet you do support the race horse industry.. An industry that sends its champions to slaughter, an industry that runs horses so hard that the animals can hardly walk by the time they are 6, an industry where young horses such as eight belles and Barboro have there lives cut short all for the love of a dollar.

    interesting.. very interesting

  • D: :'( T.T

  • Things happen. Race horses live pretty good lives compared your usual horse. So many of our horses end up on a dinner table in Europe or Japan. Most of our USA wild "mustang horses" are in holding pens awaiting who knows what fate?????? Look it up and you will see. Be a squeacky wheel and give a comment.JMO

  • Many race horses that don't make it on the track end up with a one-way ticket to Mexico or Canada.

    Not all are winners or lucky enough to be rescued by organizations such as Canter.

  • Eight Belles, we love you, rest in peace! All accidents happen in all different times, places and actions. If people think horse racing should be illegal than driving should be illegal! more than 60

    5 of deadly accidents happen by the wheel! about .8% happen in horse racing!

    Rest in peace Eight Belles!

    If your into horse racing, you'd understand.

  • nice video- great horse.

  • thank you

  • i feel so bad for her. :(

  • She was such A beautiful filly and its terrible about what happened to her...RIP Eight Belles! <3 <3

  • I agree, they don't need to ban racing, after all, that is what these horses are bred to do. I personally feel they need to move the starting age back to 3 (at least) and have the triple crown to 4. The horses just aren't done growing. Man, was I rooting for this filly, and she didn't disappoint. She truly was a beautiful horse.

  • I agree too...Racing has been an age old tradition that could stand inprovements but dosent need to be eliminated altogether.

  • agree here too!

  • I watched the Derby in joy then shock and devestation with the rest of the country. I truly believe these majestic animals LOVE what they are doing, but we owe it to them to protect them. Why did Ruffian die in a 2-horse race? Y Ruffian? 8 Belles? I do NOT believe horse racing is cruel - but I do believe more can be done to help these magnificent creatures. Long live the greatest - SECRETARIAT!!!!!

  • I 100% agree with what you are saying. Everyone on here is fighting about how to stop or ban racing, but really, the ratio of horses that live to the ones that die in horse racing? We just need to make the sport safer for the horses and jockeys.

  • Rest in peace sweet lady. You were a fantastic horse. We are all just here for a little while..

    Me and my Friesian sent this video for you...

  • I have cared for horses like this. They get into your soul. When they die or get sold, a piece of me goes with them. SAD SAD DAY.

  • Nice vid. Beautiful song, what is it?

  • yea..... wonderfully done 2point...... very mellow music as well...... anyone know wat it is....... i was actually going for 8belles..... over big brown

  • THANK YOU!!

  • it is a composition by Yann Teirson, from some foriegn movie Amelia, it is called like comptine un autre ete or something...

  • i feel so bad cause i barely get a chance to watch these races (even though i don't think they are humane) and poor eight belles only filly on the track this year, died racing is very stressful i bet the jockey feels like crap, because he was riding her before she past away. ~*R.I.P*~ *Eight Belles*

  • i know, i cant even imagine the feeling of riding a horse to its death...wow, i couldnt get on a horse again after that....

  • ~X~Rest in peace~X~

  • HAHHA niggas ankles exploded.

    I'm more sore than Eight Belles after the Derby.

  • why on earth do you feel the need to leave this comment?!?!? wow, you must have no life!

  • I leave the comments for reactions from over sensitive jewpublicans like you! AHAHAHAHAHAA

  • wow, get a life, and off of my video then!

  • You loser, youd be really sore if you made these stupid comments of yours in front of people instead of hideing behind a keyboard. I agree with TWO POINTS, get the hell off his videos, loser racist!! Your probably a punk ass kid that is stirring the pot for a reaction. Well you got one from quite a few poeple, its up for grabs or a lottery system to see who kicks your young racist ass, but to big a pussy to show up. Sorry ass is what you are. Your parents didnt do much of a job with you.Loser!

  • Hahaha, thanks but btw: Me = TwoPoint = Girl = She =D

  • @TwoPointProductions I think when Bellatrix was speaking she was referring to the skywalk, not you, TwoPoint, she was defending your video against the person saying that an animal doesn't deserve a tribute.

  • Dickhead. Go play on a freeway.

  • okay, seriously, stop leaving gaay comments on my vids please! go send it in a message or something, you dont need to make it public. kids watch this movie and your language is not appropriate here.

  • I couldn't agree more, TwoPoint. Unfortunately, some of your supporters are still struggling with their grasp of the english language. One can only hope they learn to communicate without all of the colorful adjectives.

    By the way, can I count on you to post some follow-up tributes dedicated to the other thousands of animals that die senselessly each day? It would truly be a shame for Eight Belles to be the only one honored here on youtube.

  • THIS IS MY EXACT POINT!!!! Someone takes the time to create a memorial to an incredible athlete and you have the audacity to disrespect the maker of the video and the animal itself. This leads back to my point where idiots like you have absolutely no respect for the interest of someone else, them caring about a loss of an animal that was loved by THOUSANDS of people. I hope to God you never get a pet.

  • And I guess you continue to prove my point: that you just don't get it. Keep declaring that you do, but your posts make it clear that you don't. Saying the same thing over and over still doesn't make it relevant.

    I'm sure you already have pets, and I think this is fantastic. Unfortunately, because they weren't loved by thousands, by your logic, they may not deserve a tribute when they die.

    Please, do not vote in the upcoming election.

  • Excuse me? My logic? You're one to talk, Skywalk, and you continuously bashing me and saying....quite illogically, that A) I have no logic, nor literacy, in otherwords, and that I'm a twit, continuously proves my point when I say that you need to grow the fuck up.

  • Fine, we can change the subject if you want.

    Yes, your logic. And sure, I'll bite: you can't have an A without a B; how's that for logic and literacy? Re-read your latest post and some of the others for further examples of your lack thereof. Swearing and failing at grammar isn't exactly the way to go about showing off your maturity or grasp of language, my dear.

  • ummm thanks?

  • okay, i dont know if your trying to be a smart one when you are asking about the more videos. Yes i have made more videos honoring horses, dead and alive, [[Tinka]] but... obvioisly every horse in the world is not going to be honored in a video, and if you are trying to be a smart one when you are leaving this comment, plese you too, take your comments somewhere away from my video! =D

  • Horses have served man longer than any other animal in the world. They have a history; a past. They were brought to the New World with us; a symbol of status. They raced their heart out for us. "They have DIED for our selfish needs!" They jumped as high as they could for us. They carried us through war. They bring joy to us. Horses deserve respect and admiration. They don't deserve a fate of being slaughtered or fighting for human entertainment. Respect for all horses

  • my mother cried for a very long time when she watched the race... i was wondering if anyone knows the song that is playing in this video? i know sumone whos horse recently died and i would like to my a slidshow and send it to her with that song... "Eight Belles... Rest In Peace" I &hearts; U

  • its comptine un de autre ete or something close to that by Yann teirson, thanks for watching

  • at first...when i saw her collaps...i thought it was a joke or sumthing..to play on the guy riding..and hten everyone huddled around her...so sad...when i hearde she fractured her ankles...i immediatly thought...steroids...but no...thats nonsence

  • i know, i cried for sooo long after I heard about it...

  • I cried when i saw this...another TB like barbaro gone...because if TB racing...sad

  • ditto =[

  • The autopsy is still on going, it will not be completed for another 2 weeks.

  • It is sad what happened to Eight Belles, she was a beautiful horse, I got to see here run on thursday before the derby. She was amazing, I was also there at the derby, and what happened was heartbreaking, she will always be remembered in my heart. Rest in Peace Eight Belles <3

  • can anyone tell me the title of the music in this video?

  • comptine un de autre ete or something by yann teirson...just google yann teirson amalie and it should come up...THANKS FOR WATCHING!

  • boycott racing and will go away.never forget what happened to eight belles.pass it around.

  • ban, no. make safer yes!

  • only if horses are natural athletes with zero drugs.

  • eight belles was never on any kind of drug, unlike the others...eight belles had her own talent

  • you are a fool.the autopsy was crooked and the whole industry is crooked.

  • yeah, but if the sport is safer, theres not a problem is there? no!

  • I agree. Everything that has to do with big money being made is crooked & corrupt. Look at sports, big business, the government, etc...

  • amen

  • jaweaver (2 days ago) I'm not conservative, but I'm also not an ubra liberal. It's a horse people...a horse. If only people would show as much compassion for human life as they do a horse. Neither "liberal" nor "conservative" is a compliment. Find the happy medium.

    Well there is the most sense I've seen on this thread! She was a horse, bred to race, that was her job. Just like those who cry over animals killed for meat. They were bred for it, and so was this horse.

  • She was an ATHLETE. Yeah, she was an animal, but we all are. Animals of different species. You know what would happen if our intelligence was taken away? We have no means to hunt or defend ourselves by instinct. We'd be fucked. We don't have claws nor the teeth to be able to take something down ourselves without the means of technology we've created.

  • Well we don't have "claws nor teeth" to take something down because of our large cranial capacity. If you had ever studied Anthropology and followed the evolution of the "homo" line you would know that. She was an Athlete, and trained as one, and I'm not taking away from the tragedy she suffered BUT ALAS she was just an ANIMAL. Maybe P.E.T.A. should change to P.E.T.H.people for the ethical treatment of HOMELESS and use their organization for a cause worth something. Animals are afterall animals

  • No, but I have studied animal husbandry and know that as a species, if it weren't for our intelligence, we wouldn't be able to survive. If you haven't noticed we're also probably the cruelest species there is.

  • That was the point, because of our intelligence, we don't have "claws and teeth" Now your just repeating yourself.

  • Everyone wants to argue but what should be remembered is that a beautiful filly ran her heart out and took second place. She was spectacular & her accident tragic & fatal. She was loved by her owners,trainer, jockey & us watching her.I'm a nurse who owns 2 horses. A retired TB and a Spotted Kentucky Mountain, and both run, jump and play w/o me making them & become excited when ridden and worked. Horses a smart animals and love to please the people they love.

  • what happend?

  • Could you email me these pictures?

    Great vid by the way. RIP Belles.

  • google and photobucket and thanks

  • it wasnt bob black jac in the tunnel it was RecaptureTheGlory's jockey that got bucked off in the tunnel

  • though did yall guys hear including eight belles jockey there was 3 jockies thrown before and after the derby- i believe it was bob black jacks jocky in the tunnel leading to the track Big Browns jockey during the interview after the race that one was hilarious big brown just kicked and his jockey went flying not even a buck *lol* then eight bellees jockey when she fell

  • I agree thats the only thing wrong with horse racing their raced way to young and ARE NOT strong enough their bones arent developed even TBs bones arent developed till the age of 4-5 especially tbs they normally arent fully developed till 4

  • RIP Belle....WEe luv u

    Wut music did you use

  • read the description

  • Thank you for sharing your video. What is the music you used?

  • read the description

  • How is a horse bred to mature young? I've never heard of this?

  • I just messaged you. My comments were being deleted too.

  • I have ridden horses all my life, and in my opinion, they are raced too young. Their bones have not developed enough to take the stress of going at these speeds.

    Whipping the horses does little harm when your on top of the horse. The whip is used for encouragement, not pain.

    Also, the owners of these horses have the insured for mega bucks! If something happens to these horses, their pockets are lined green.

    Racing these babies are cruel and wrong.

  • TBs are bred to mature young though.

  • How is a horse bred to mature young? I've never heard of this?

  • Precious Eight Belles..run free sweet girl.

  • wow, a little one sided. If you say that there's nothing wrong with this you get censored. Nice, way to have both viewpoints. Heaven forbid someone disagree with you!

  • The horse racing industry pumps these beautiful beasts full of steroids.

    Why not have congress hold some hearings about this? Lord knows there's nothing else going on in this country that they should be concerned with. Right? Steroids obviously trump wars, torture, wire tapping, habeas corpus, outing CIA agents, and a whole slew of other government misdeeds.

    Horse racing is about making a profit and weilding control. End of story.

  • I cried as I watched it...

  • sorry, I am presuming sazzy is a female. If not, my apologies.

  • sazzy is a "pathetic excuse for a human being" because, why? -- She has compassion and wants to protect something that cannot protect itself from something that often has little to no compassion and preys on those who cannot protect themselves? or is it because she believes humans have made a desperate push for progress and ended up, influenced by evil forces, to get to a point "God had never intended for us"?

  • -- Yes it makes her a bad human being in the eyes of humanity, but it surely makes her godly.

  • uhhh Godly for loving animals more than people, im willing to debate that. There is a fine line between a love for animals, and an idolotry of animals.

  • because she admittedly cares more about animals than humans, that is why. God (if there is such a thing which all logic suggests there is not) had never intended for us to care more about animals than humans. read the bible, how great were animals treated back in their time? were they not used for the purposes of man rather than their natural purposes? Yes, they were. If you're going to bring God into it, at least pretend to know the bible a little!!!

  • Horse racing represents all of humanity. There are those who are in it solely for themselves and don't care about anyone else, or anything else... and there are those on the opposite end of the spectrum. To say that there are no owners or trainers out there who don't treat these horses like a family member is just plain ignorant.
