4.1 A.Nevzorov (off screen): The key thing here is not to keep track of whether a horse has jumped over the "painted sticks" or not, but simply to look into its eyes and into its mouth to see the sufferings behind the glitter, to whip your attention from the action -- whether it has jumped over or not - to the horse itself that is not difficult to do. 4.2 A.Nevzorov (on screen): Well, here everything can be seen clearly. Here is the tongue. As you know, the tongue is a place where nerve endings and all kinds of different taste receptions are concentrated, it is a very sensitive part of the body. And you can see that, once the tongue is squeezed by the bit, it is not only jammed and pushed back, but it is also dragged back and stiffed into the horse's throat, in fact, the tongue is right there. Yes, yes, here is where you can see how far back into the throat it is stiffed through the action of human hands and the bit. Physiologists classify the kind of pain caused by ordinary bit as one of the strongest. Right now I'm going to explain to you what this nice young guy is doing. He is carrying out a procedure that in the language of sport in known under the name of "sawing". "Sawing" is the intense twitching of the position of the reins from one side to another compared to the movement of a saw. This sawing leads to the effect that on the toothless parts of the lower jaw, the bone which is covered with a very thin layer of mucous membrane starts to be damaged and even fractured. Well, here everything can also be seen very clearly. Here is the snaffle, here is the horse's mouth. During the intense reining, during the so-called "sawing" , the central part of the snaffle not only sticks into the palate, gets hold of the tongue, jams it and stuffs it back into the throat, but it may fracture the teeth as well. Look closely at what is happening to the horse's head. As a result of the continuous beating of the bit on the jaw in the place where trigomenal nerves are located , the so-called clonic convulsion eventually develops. And on top of all, in sport they beat the horse. They beat it repeatedly, incessantly ,' from the heart', without rest. They beat it on the shoulders, on the croup , on the neck, on the eyes, on the head. It is beaten by professionals and amateurs, by elderly and young people and even children are taught to do the same. They teach that sadism to children, they teach them to beat a horse paralyzed with pain in the mouth, to beat it in such a way that it would "feel the pain" as the sportsmen put it. They tactfully call it "a punishment". 4.3 A.Nevzorov(off screen): For instance, during this competition, which was rather typical one, not a single sportsman was 'sent off with a foul' or removed for roughness or cruelty. Everything you see is not outrageous behavior but a norm. I want to notice that it was quite ordinary, official competition supported by the Russian Federation of Equestrian Sport. Here it is - the revenge of Yahoo -- long-expected and realized to the full. His dream and his hope! The beating is quite a common thing. Sportsmen beat the horse during training sessions to break its will and make it jump over those damned "painted sticks", they beat it before the competition to cheer it up, they beat it during the competition and after it to load it on the trailer to carry it away. It is worth listening to the confession of a sportswoman to realize the realities of equestrian sport to the full.

krass.. die leute scheinen ja alle auf dem gleichen turnier gestartet zu sein. In Deutschland hätten die alle längst Turnierverbot & wahrscheinlich noch den Tierschutz am Hals.
not everyone does that, and when your on a run away your, I don't dare who you are, your either 'sawing' its mouth or your falling off, and I'm not falling off!
Mon dieu que je suis contente que l'on ne m'ait pas appris à monter comme ça ! Quelle mentalité ! Frapper son cheval dans l'espoir de compenser son incompétence !! Quelle horreur !!
THE VIDEO is not saying that this is normal. It is showing the unseen brutality to the horse and speaking for the horse to those stupid riders.. but not that this is ok to do. I thank this video for giving voice and speaking for the horse.
All the riding this this video is wrong and bad, but tjis video makes that out be be normal and it isnt. Believe me, horses are very expensive, and you only have them if you want them. They are not just like a happy meal toy. Most people love there horses and would never treat the horses like this. Over here you are marked down for sawing in dressage.
This video is beyond Moral! Those poor horses getting treated like that!! those riders should be wiped and hit so they know the pain they are causing.
i cannot believe how insanely stupid these people are! i grew up on the back of a horse and never once treated them this way! even when i got bucked off! just goes to show how incredibly worthless the human race is. horses are MORE than happy to do WHATEVER you ask of them if you just have patience and respect for them. they are not dumb, and if you think so then you know nothing of horses!! god will not judge us by how we treat each other, but how we treat our animals.
You don't really Have to use a whip,m just because everyone else does it or your told to do it doesnt mean you have to, i go horse riding and i refused to use a whip, and i can still controll the horse without the use of the whip, infact it is obvious that the horse is happier and more willing.
