Painful Horse Falls

~~This is sarcastic. I know riding is very hard. Thank you and enjoy..~~
From what I have read, no one died, horse or human, however keep in mind that not all resources are reliable so do not hold me to it! TO many people have blown up at me about this, but what can I say? It is merely what I have read. Please just watch this video for entertainment and please not that at the beginning I am being sarcastic, not serious. Riding is NOT easy!!

I am sensoring comments only because I want to prevent all cussing on this video and I do not want rude or nasty remarks made that are directed towards ANYONE no matter what that person's view is.

video please

[eventercrazy]

@skatebeforehomework ? I'm confused. "video please" what?

[skatebeforehomework]

its just pictures not a video

[eventercrazy]

@skatebeforehomework Oh, gotcha. It was a very early work of mine. I was hardly working with actual video then, bt I do have another falls video called Intense Horse Falls. You may not like it at all because of the flashes, but I was using that to practice my timing. If you want to go to where I got the videos, however, most of them have the poster's name at the bottom of the screen.

1:04 the horse clearly broke its leg, and you know what they do with 99% of horses with broken legs right? Well, I ride too, and what can i say? Humans are the ones over horses and not the oposite, they know the risks they are taking in name of a hobby. Animals are not to be played with

You have a good horse, at least he stopped when you fell and didn't step over/on you.

[eventercrazy]

@ThePalomino83 Haha of course I didn't research the horse. I already said I don't have the time to. To be honest, I don't even care what his name is. I asked the poster of the picture if the horse died. S/he said no, so I said that. I never inserted personal opinion about that horse into the entire thing. Or any of the horses save my own, for that matter. Nor do I care that it hurts to land on its head. That wasn't in the discussion at all. Besides, that results from what's called a rotational

@ThePalomino83 and if you know so much about equine veterinary practices, then you should know if the bone doesn't shatter, there are rehabilitation methods. The problem is that majority of horses don't have the mind to be still and let it heal seeing as they don't understand human language. There are a few, however, who do have the right mind and survive. Even if they can only ever walk again. So, unless you research this horse, we will never know if he lived or died.

@ThePalomino83 That's cool. Becoming an equine vet is tough. I've worked with mine several times and I can appreciate the effort as well as the physical stress it puts humans under. Anyway, I believe the conversation was about the abuses of jumping. If you want to go back to the broken leg, I didn't study the horse. I typed "horse accidents" into Google and found it. I asked if horse died. Person said no. I said: As far as I know, no horse died in this video. End of story. Oh,

[eventercrazy]

@ThePalomino83 I meant bold in that one statement. Anyway, of course it wouldn't. You didn't know what you were talking about to begin with, so how could you possibly understand someone who's fully immersed in the sport? It simply doesn't happen.

@eventercrazy feels this way. Most people love their animals. If you think that any horse in its right mind would be willing to jump true cross country without fully trusting their rider, you have no idea what goes into eventing. Horses and riders need a VERY strong bond with each other. There is a joke among eventers and jumpers out here. eventer: Only horses with a screw loose are willing to jump this stuff it's so risky! jumper: Every time we have a crazy horse for sale, only the

@ThePalomino83 eventers are interested. It's true. We need extremely old horses, but we also need very smart, strong, and brave horses with an intense bond with their rider.
