RIP Hickstead ⊰ A Champion

Today ( Novemeber 6th, 2011) Hickstead collasped in the middle of the arena at the World cup in Italy. He had a heart attack while Eric Lamaze was on him and fell to the ground.

Hickstead was horse won horse of the year at FEI World Equestrain Games.

Eric Lamaze and Hickstead were the best horse and rider combination ever seen.

You wil be missed greatly Hickstead.

RIP

Update: Someone had told me that someone (Not sure if it was Eric Lamaze himself or someone associated with him) had posted this video on Eric Lamaze's Facebook, so I went looking for it and it turns out it's actually there. I am very happy that Eric and others who were associated with the wonderful Hickstead have seen this video and loved it enough to share it :') Thank you and thank you for everyone's kind words.

@Spyhunter107 She can do whatever she feels like and if that is to make a tribute for Hickstead, then she can! I can't speak for the maker of this video but Hickstead and Eric Lamaze have inspired me more than most people in the world will ever do. I think you should find something better to do with your life then write nasty things about something you clearly don't understand.

@TheRevolutionary465 However, Hickstead didnt get a heart attack. He died of a ruptured aorta, which caused heart failure. Big difference.

@TheRevolutionary465 Why does humas have heart attacks? Same unknown reason.
