Culita Eugen yea I guess it is. Racing is very hard though, no doubt you got to control a fast car. That’s hard. I myself struggle already with controlling a cantering horse.
Skye TheWoof but with a car though they have brakes. And can be controlled while horses are living and breathing animals. So i would think horses are harder. Yes driving a car can be hard but not nearly as hard as controlling an animal that could flip any second
I had a friend who was toxic to me and tried to make me feel bad about the one thing im proud of. My riding. She isnt my friend anymore. She told me that riding was easy, that the horse did all the work. I sat her on top of a horse and cantered circles around her while she sat on an older beginner horse walking around the arena. She even had the audacity to demand that SHE do all of that stuff because it was so easy. My instructor asked her to trot. She couldn't. By that point i was jumping and practicing getting my horse in frame, and she was extrememly frustrated. To this day i still grin at the memory.
bruh, we are like using every muscle in our body when we are on the saddle. and that we burn CALORIES, which is similar to what happens when you do SPORT.
Have the horse I ride: Dingo. He’s not my pony, i just ride him with riding lessons. When people say: *”You just sit there”* Im Like: Have you ever even ridden a horse? ;w; because like some of them, you really have to use you’re sit to keep them walking where you want the to walk xD
Somebody: What sport do you do? Me: I' m an equestrian Somebody: That's so easy. That's not a sport Me: Well get up to the saddle and try it by yourself Somebody: No way, horses are scary
Even when you’re not as dedicated as a rider, it still takes every ounce of what you’ve got to do whatever you do with that horse. Heck casual horseback riding is the one and only reason I have abs
It rips me up when people say it’s not a sport and it’s “easy” well let me say tons of riders break there bones, get concussions or even DIE. So to all those people who thinks it’s easy I’d think twice about it.
You are stupid people think that it's okay to hurt horse. Can you even imagine how much it take for horse to carry a person on the back with some peace of metal inside of the mouth for hurting horse more in order to control
Sara Diamondheart I would love two but unfortunately my family don’t have the money or time for a horse + there’s no riding lessons near where we live x
My friend: "horse riding isnt dangerous" Me: have you made a little mistake and a horse has fallen on you and u almost died but got back up on the saddle? My friend : ...
Horse riding is a dangerous sport that requires balance, stamina and skill. Do u know how much times we get kicked or bitten. It is defiantly a sport I am NOT saying it is the horses fault so calm down. God
My friends: Hey! You do a sport? Me: Yeah I'm an equestrian! Them: Hah! That is SO easy! Me: ~Shows them pictures of my mare Phinn continuously trying to throw me off with no stirrups~ Also me: Still think it's easy? Them: Well..... Me: ~Get's Phinn all tacked up~ Try it! Them: ~Walks away, defeated~
I’ve learned a lesson that I will never forget, don’t give up, if you get hurt if you get kicked off, nothing Matters all that matters is that you don’t give up, giving up means that you’ve been defeated.
My mom rode horses her entire life but after she broke her tail bone and got an concussion she has been afraid to get on another horse. She talks about how she misses riding but when she gets her horse tacked up she just can't bring herself to get on again 😔
I agree with this. I train horses but I’m also an eventer. I have this same expirience. People make fun of me because they say it’s easy and horses are weak, but when I fell off my horse at 16 years old I broke my leg and arm. My fingers were crushed. I thought that it would be the end because the one horse I loved died in the accident. He snapped his ankle in half. People stopped making fun of me and started morning with me. I miss him so much and now I train and do eventing all for him.
Same with me, when I was doing a competition my pony refused the jump and I fell and I was dangling he galloped of and snapped his neck bc he went running into a tree but by then I jumped of from my stirrups, and he died the day after
I ride horses, Yes, some people do think it's easy. They say all you have to do is kick the horse with the stirrups and there you go, a runaway horse. These horses work hard for they're riders, can't we just give them some respect?
@@lucinetamashi1775 i get spurs aren't the best but some horses need convincing, especially if you just start out and already have weak legs so you cant kick hard, I've had to use spurs on my horse because shes a stubborn horse and kicking without spurs sometimes isnt enough for her
My logic: Mom: *this year we are going to travel to Africa* Me: How much does it cost? Mom: *€10000* Me: wait! You can buy 3 horses with that!!! Am I the only one?
You can buy more than 3. When we bought our horse we only paid 500€. He was only 5 months old back than and he is a Haflinger and not some Dressage horse but still... Well it was a great price for such an amazing horse. His breeders definitely sold him for way less than he is worth. (If you live in Europe and want a pony, please consider a Haflinger from Tirol in Austria. If no one buys them they go to the butchers.)
I had goose-bumps throughout the entire vid. As an Equestrian I hear people say these things all the time. When I was in grade 2 my teacher said: "So honey, what sport do you do?" "Horse riding!" I replied "That's not a sport honey" she said. me: "Have YOU ever fallen off something going SSSUUUPPPEEERRRR fast, and doesn't speak your language, and can kill you if you make ONE WRONG MOVE?!?!?!?!?!" She just gulped and said: "ok honey, whatever you say." And walked away. She didn't speak to me for the rest of the class. lol
My friends always say “what do you do for sport?” I say “ I ride” they say “it’s not a sport its easy horses are dangerous they do all the work” I say “ have you tried it? Have you jumped with the risk of breaking a bone or die? Have you galloped on a beautiful creature that can trample you if you fall? Have you trusted an animal that can turn its back on you at any moment? Have you ridden an 18 hand horse? Have you cantered bareback?” My main question is have you come face to face with a A big animal 10 times your size that’s pure meat and muscle?” We equestrians risk our lives and so do our lovely friends
Brighton McFarland so true I die reading dis I ride horses my cousin died falling off a horse R.I.P Sarah We miss you 1999-2019 only 20 still had years to go but she died doing what she loves and I love and the horse was almost put down but my sis saved him and know he lives a good life doing trail rides,and barrel racing I LOVE ❤️ RIDING
Now we need... "so, you still think there is a such thing as a white horse?" 🤣 only equestrians will understand 😂😂 Omg tysm for 200 likes AHHH 1.3K LIKES AND 101 COMMENT REPLIES YOU ALL MADE MY DAY IM SO SORRY I HAVENT REPLIED TO U OMG TYSM ILY ALL
Home Ed Kids Chloe & Leo i get it🤣 one of my friends watched me ride and said "wow i love that white horse" "he such a beautiful white horse" im like yeah hes nice but hes grey not white, and yet they still dont believe me after two years
There is such thing as a white horse but I get what u mean,once a little girl came up to me while I was riding and she almost got stepped on (not my fault) (or the horses) and she ran to her mom crying and I heard her say to her mom “MOMMY THAT WHITE HORSE ALMOST KILLED ME”! And the worse was... my horse is a CREMELLO! It’s not even GRAY or WHITE like it triggered me! Like plus you ran right in front of my horse while it was cantering.... like u dumb or something?
@@evelynhoffman4987 Yes, it doesn’t get boring dirtier. If you want to see me ride you can check my channel (Ellie Frogmore) and you can see my ride my favorite pony Gizmo, he can be challenging, but super fun!
Oh my thats PERFECT!! SO true..and for the others out there that think its easy... put on a saddle so it wont fall off then ride.. they have no idea how heavy a western saddle is!!! Mercy this video is thee best!! Thanks and keep riding!!
There is a kid in my class called brady and he is TERRIFIED of horses anyway here’s the story Brady: guess what Me: what? Brady: I ALMOST RODE A PONY😄 Me:ok?? Brady: but I got scared and fell in the mud Me:😂 Brady: you can’t do much better Me: actually, I’m an equestrian. Brady: a what??
My friends: "You just fricking sit there" I could say the opposite. It's annoying when people think that THE HORSE RIDING ISN'T A SPORT?! THEY SAY IT'S EASY?! THEY SAY YOU WON'T FALL?! THEY SAY EVERYONE COULD DO IT?! THEY SAY YOU DON'T DO ANYTHING, JUST SIT THERE?! No. You control the horse, you do ALOT more things than just sit there. No, it's not easy. Test it, it's not EASY. YOU COULD FELL, YOU MIGHT DIE *IT'S NOT EASY*
i'm going to sen this to my brother cuz he always be saying "The horse does all the work...all you do is sit their and pull the reins a bit. how are you tierd?" it triggers me so bad like i've been riding horses my whole life! He just dosen't understand, like and comment if you understand.
When my Brother does that I Just start telling him of some of the horses I had to handle at Work. Some were nicer than others admittedly but some of the more Strong willed ones, oh boy the "fun" we Had together is a memory I will never loose. By now He thinks im crazy for doing what I do.😅 (Im Not an equestrian by any means, i did horseback riding for some time when I was Younger but i had to Stop unfortunately, now i Work at an equine clinic and trough that I was able to rediscover my passion for horses in a way.)
From people sitting straight up in the saddle to perform an intricate dance to tiny people crouching in the stirrups, weighing to the point that the horse will barely feel them as it barrels down a track, these people live a life of danger but with passion. Then you have the daredevils and flying steeds that go over obstacles fearlessly and to the ones that slide to a halt within seconds and those that spin around a barrel in a certain pattern. Riders and horses take hours and hours of practice to perfect what they want to do. This costs money, time, effort, energy, patience, trust, and confidence to do what they are pursuing. It's an emotional roller coaster as well, for both horse, rider, and the entire team that's backing them up. Horseback riding isn't just a sport or a hobby for some people, it's a lifestyle for them. They made it part of their life. Even for those who do it for fun know that it's damn well hard to do and ain't easy in the slightest.
Horse riding is a sport do you not see me using leg muscle and having to keep my heels down trust me say that to my dead calves cause I practice 5 hours a day but let my horses rest a little I mean look at my pic I do dressage and jumping I’ve fallen off and gotten 6 concussions and broken bones many times I was competing in 2014 and my horse tripped on a cross country horse jump and I fell and my horse fell and got a sprained knee and I broke an arm and a ankle and also got a concussion my horses leg was cut up I got cut on my stomach and I had a super nasty fall it was nasty the medical team ran out and they had to hurry and rush me in and rush my horse into the vet I could’ve died
I cant even count How many times i got angry becaus pepols say that riding is simple! It takes power! Not every one Can do it. Your STRONG if you can!!!!
I came very close to sticking someone on the back of my horse and setting up jumps in the paddock. I know how it feels to fall off halfway over one of them buggers.
I just tell them if they can groom, tack, do both a hunter and jumper course along with a dressage test and they don’t fall off and do it perfectly than they can say it’s “easy” That usually shuts them up pretty quick.
Julie The Horse Girl I do two sports and my gymnastics coach says I shouldn’t spend so much time doing my horses and I’m like. I hve a show next week and still hve to learn my pattern and work my horse every day I still hve to sow my show pants and work my butt off in that pin. I would like to see any other girl in this gym who can do the same
I feel off a horse 675 times in my riding career, I never gave up, I kept going, I feel off a claysdale and nearly broke my whole body, I got back up again
Okay this comment isn't related that much but Clydesdale horses are huge they could probably kill me based off of my weight size and not to mention how I'm weak so yea they are unpredictable
This Is the type of stuff I wanna do when I get older, but then again, I'm a 10 year old, wanting to be a showjumper, and a marine biologist. I REALLY want to find the Lost City of Atlantis, and everyone tells me that I need a real Job. I have always loved horses, and I trust them with everything. Wish me luck on fulfilling my stupid dangerous jobs people!!!
@@j6gail9 My sisters and brother agree with me My brother goes through it with me, he rides a welsh pony because he is the youngest. And My sisters know that I will plough them if they disagree
I showed my friend who thinks horses are "weak" and that "you just sit there" this video and he almost started crying because he didn't understand the risk i take, so now he loves horses and appriciate everything about them
One time a person asked me what sports I do and I said that I’m an equestrian. He just laughed and said that’s not really a sport. I can’t wait to show him this video
@@johannalapuste4720 please tell me how being on an unpredictable animal with a mind of it own, an animal who's mood can change in a second, who can trip or make a mistake at anytime, please tell me how it is not an dangerous sport. By the way dressage is really hard but it is probably the least dangerous in the equestrian world. Really hard but not as dangerous as cross country, racing, barrel racing...
@@sunflowerhols exactly! I ride two horse, one which is 5.58 feet and one which is 4.11 feet (1.70 and 1.50 meters because i'm not sure with english height measure ^^°) And the second is waaaaaay more difficult than first!
Im nine too i get thst people say its easy Have they felt the pain of jumping a horse and falling? Of a horse kicking u in the face? WE RISK OUR LIVES People say they are dangerous but humans ma,e them crazy
THANK YOU!!!!! My friends say “oh that’s *way* to easy. Gymnastics is harder!” But have they ever seen just how hard and how much work it is to ride? NO!
i showed this to my class for a project because we got to do a project and i used this video, everybody was quiet except for 2 boys who responded to the words on the screen. They still think it’s easy, but that’s too bad.
People who have no idea: "You just sit there. It's easy. Anyone could do it." Me: "No. We take risk. We use the time of our day to practice and train."
pepper dog take them see u ride and let them ride them by themself and dont give them tips. Lets see is it easy, u could let them jump 100 cm too. They said its easy so..
You know what this is a real sport and I am so sick of people telling me it is not a real sport and they can do it or we are weak because they say the horse dose all the work but they don't work 5 hours a day 7 days a week and have fallen on there head 24 times and got back up again because they would have given up but we the true horse lovers and riders never give up no mater how much times or days they worked or have fallen the video is too true I love it.
Holly Hummingbirdriver you are right I am sick of it and I do exactly what you do 5 hours 7 days of the week have fallen like 20 times it’s hard you need trust in your horse and confidence and you need to know how to ride and I’m not even gonna start I put how it’s all the horse doing it It’s Saturday and I finished riding yesterday and my legs are sore but I am going back today
I’m sick of it too. Especially when a non-rider makes fun of a rider when they think it’s easy when it’s truely not I get teased just because of people think it’s not a sport and is easy.
yeah but that's not the point of the video... I am a horse rider and when someone asks me what sport I do, I say horse riding... and they usually say that's not a sport they are like a sport is football, lacrosse, volleyball...etc. they think that because we are not running around and the horse is that it is easy when really the courage and trust that it takes is very difficult to do... in none of those sports you putting all your trust in an animal that can kill you
another story so i wanted to prove to my "friend" that horse riding isnt easy and she was like omg its ssooooo easy then she got on the saddle and fell off on the other side and i just laughed X
Im an equestrian myself, and this is amazing! Im tired of hearing people say "oh thats not a sport" I remember when I was at school and someone asked me what my favourite sport was, I said "I'm an equestrian" they said "no whats you're favourite SPORT not someone being lazy and and sitting there" I said "horse back riding IS a sport, ask the teacher" they said "okay, I will" and what the teacher said made me so mad. This is what she said: "you need to go to kindergarten, horse back riding is not a sport. A sport is when you work hard, get muscles, try HARD, horse back riding is just sitting there and let you're horse do all the work." I got mad and told her a bunch of stuff that you have to do. She said "ok" and rolled her eyes Some teacher, eh?
Every freaking time I say I'm an equestrian people say something like,, Oh, yeah, I could do thet too, you JUST STAY THERE and do.. nothing. '' and I am so fcking annoyed by the people who say that.
I actually made one of my friends that said that come to a lesson with me. Sat them on my barrel horse and told them to walk the pattern. They walked it said it was simple, anyone could do it. So I told them jog, they fell. Now they back me up whenever anyone says its easy XD
Roxana M there's a girl at my school she says riding is a sport (remember this) but one day she asked everybody what their favorite sport is everybody normally said soccer basketball football you know the usual. But when she got to me I said equestrian and she said, but thats not a sport..... You don't want to know what happened but neither to say she never talked to me again.
"Have you ever practiced 5 hours a day 7 days a week?" *me who is in marching band and practices 2 hours in the morning, 6 in the afternoon, sometimes on weekend, plus 2 hours of practice at home* 👁👄👁 But good concept tho, you guys are very brave, I couldn't see myself riding something going at almost 50mph and like 7 feet tall and making crazy jumps and things like that😅
It's supposed to look easy until you actually do it. Equestrianism can be done with little effort if you use training gadgets and/or have a push button horse. But when you do it for real, that's when it's more than a hobby. It becomes a sport.
"all you do is sit there,tap their stomach,and pull those string" "you just force the horses to jump and just sit down and hold on" "football is way harder" "i could handle a horse any time,you only feed them 1 time" "it takes no practice to ride a horse i can just get on and gallop away" these are some things i've heard my years of riding.
Oh I love people who think that they can gallop on their first time riding and then they trot, lose it, and fall of the horse and then ask, "was I galloping?"
@@YouDoNotKnowWhoIAm kids in elementary thought I was the weird kid because I had horses and they thought riding was easy. I would have loved to show up to school on horseback, jump the fence into school and tell them to do the same and see how "easy" it really is. /7\ 🏇
Do people actually think they can gallop on their first try? It literally took me a year to be able to trot without a lead rope, though I still don't know how to gallop because my horse riding lessons had to stop because of Covid. Though I'm going to apply for the equine studies course at Myerscough this year, wish me luck!
I agree with this. But from the way I see it you should never feel like you’re going to die, if you are truly an equestrian than you trust your horse with not only your performance but with your life. Yes I have been nervous about falling off before, but never that my horse would let me get hurt if it could stop it at all. Plus half of riding is being knowing that you are taking a risk, but still trusting your mount. Please don’t hate. It’s just my opinion.
I love horses I am not hating. This MY opinion. The truth is you COULD die with one mistake whether you feel it or not. I trust my horse with my life but I still make conscious decisions like when he tears to lean forward because if I lean back I could die. Also I choose to wear a helmet. Like I said I trust him with my life, but you as an equestrian should always be cautious around a horse no matter how much you trust it. Like I said just my opinions
i agree, but, even when youre putting all the trust you have into your horse, things do go wrong. a horse could be spooked, you could have your position wrong and get hurt, etc
Some girls say "I am an equestrian" But all they do is drive to the barn and ride. The groom does everything else for them. A true equestrian will...... Wake up at 5:00 am to......feed,water,muck out stables,brush,clean tack,tack up,ride,untack,brush,give bath,put back in barn and repeat.
Well, I just recently started riding, so I don’t know that yet, and the barn I go to is half an hour away, so I wouldn’t be able to, but I SO would if I could
A survey was done with over 60 athletes, testing different parts of their strength. In every single category, the 3 horse riders in the survery were in the top 5 because you have to be so strong to ride
Amen to that! Lemme tell ya, I don't own a horse so therefore I don't know the hours and money put into their care, maintenance and training. But, I did ride horses for a very long time and I do understand the concept of having a being just as intelligent as you and way more powerful than you underneath you and beside you, and believe me. Ain't anything better than the feeling that a fellow being has a kinship with you. When you find a creature as massive, magnificent, and powerful as a horse shares that special bond with you, then you'll truly understand and appreciate why people do what they do when they put in all that time, money and effort into these creatures. Sorry for the long comment...lol
Silixia hey, I mean no harm and I’m just putting my opinion out here I really do mean no disrespect so please don’t come back and get mad at me for this. Here is my stance: Is horse back riding easy: Well fuck no. Is horse back riding a sport: Not Exactly Is horse back riding one of the easier “sports” to quickly pick up and be somewhat competent in: Yes Definitely Is horse back riding the hardest “sport”: well fuck no. Now the reason I say it’s not exactly a sport is because I think the term sport has become much more of an umbrella term. I think sports are things that are never or were never done in natural life that take precise skill athleticism and coordination. I think a lot of the people who run track or horseback ride do just really want to feel included with the sports and the things that most people care about paying attention to so this whole debate started. Am I saying it’s not in any way a sport? No. I’m saying it is an extremely general partial sport. Does that mean I’m saying it’s easy? Well again, fuck no. Again, I just really wanted to put my opinion out here, I don’t want this to start some crazy people yelling at me or getting angry debate. I just want to see what people think of what I say. So please, I beg of you, this is absolutely nothing personal, it’s just a friendly argument/ debate I’d like to take part in. Thank you for your time and thank you so much for reading this, Sean.
This week was my equestrian camp. We all took part even though we knew the risk. We were galloping the horses. My horse takes a very sharp turn and I’m not prepared. I slide I fall and I now have a big graze on my hip. We know the risk but we don’t let fear become stronger than confidence and passion. Our scars make us stronger and our confidence drives us forward. We are Equestrians! 🤩🏇🐎 (Been sitting in my bed hurting for two days)
I am crying god I miss this so much. To anyone who says this is easy go get your head check. It’s the biggest risk us horse lovers take. But so worth it
@@ridinhigh5548 I agree. Even though I’m not an Equestrian, I’m proud of those who are. It is a big risk they take, and they do make it look easy. Because they do it so well with confidence and belief in themselves and their horses, it could easily be mistaken as “easy”. It’s one of the - if not the - most DANGEROUS and HARDEST sports in the world. ❤ horses ❤ Equestrians ❤
@@allanjensen125 i'm actually about to take a huge step next year in the horse industry, i live in europe but ive trained a lot of dangerous rescues, mostly tall warmbloods (first case was by far the worst ive seen) And im actually starting to save money so i can participate in extreme mustang makeover next year! Note: My god mother was an olympic level show jumper, she quit competing a few years back and sold her geldings but she taught me a lot, and i got her blessing to participate in the makeover which meant the world to me ngl
@@ridinhigh5548 yeah it’s quite unusual to see a non- Equestrian say horse riding isn’t easy. They have obviously thought it through and have their head screwed in the right way……. Unlike some. 🤥😑🫤😐😬🙄🫥
OMGG I'M ALMOST CRYINGG...😭😭ACTUALY I'M CRYING people who tinks that riding is easy that we just sit on that " animal " are wrong. They dont know how many lifes dye every year how many falls and wins are here... yes horse riding isnt just a sport is more... is my-OUR whole life... and these people are wrong.... dont care about people who tinks..... care abaut people who loves you and riding ❤
THANK YOU!! Equestrianism has been rated the most dangerous sport, OVER race car racing and other sports. One time, on the news, they had a whole discussion on how dangerous Equestrianism is, and all. I work, ride, and care for polo ponies, and those are the most stuck up horse you'll ever meet, because they are so valuable to the game, and they know it. Without them, there is no game, and they Lord it over you. I've been kicked multiple times, nipped, almost bitted on the face and shoulder, pushed, shoved, slammed. And they swing their head at you like a club. So, tell your brother to come down to the brandywine polo club, and I'll have him help me with my horses. See what he thinks then, and that's not even RIDING them!
+Sierra Samways Why? Before I started riding, I was a dancer for 10 years and the style of dance I did is actually very similar to competitive cheerleading, it is not hard and mistakes are almost always harmless. But in riding, I was once in a 9 day coma 3 years ago, and recently, on New Years, I broke both my legs going over a 1.40m jump and fell onto the concrete. (one leg had bone sticking out) and it was horrible. And the only serious injury I had in 10 years of dance was breaking my pinkie from doing an one of the most dangerous overhead lifts.
this is so true! i hate it when people are like "ridings not a sport, you dont do anything you are just there for the ride, the horse s the only one working"
Am I the only one who gets into these situations 99.9% of the time?? And has anyone else gotten into a situation where people ask "what sport do you PLAY?" And you don't want to answer because your an equestrian and we don't PLAY, we work our asses off to be the best we can, in other sports you have a chance of getting a broken bone, concussion, or mild injuries like that. But equestrians could snap their neck, get crushed, or even trampled. Bucked, thrown, or even fall- and we still get back in the saddle. In my opinion we don't PLAY a sport we WORK at a sport!🐎
To support your comment, I would like to put out that in 2015, a horse bolted and I fell onto some rocks as we were hacking on a rocky area, In result I was in a coma for 2 weeks. Recently, at New Years 2018, I had another dangerous fall and broke both my legs, (on one leg the bone was sticking out of my skin) Horse falls may sometimes be harmless but when you try a difficult horse, any danger can happen. I would also like to put out for no reason. Football isn't a proper sport, it is a game.
Those of us who love the horse... We wouldn't want to be injured by anything else, We wouldn't want to die, but by a horse... We wouldnt be associated with any other Animal...but the horse. The horse alone can and is, many, many peoples lives. Humanity itself would not be if not for the horse. Only if you truly know these stunning animals will you have any idea of what I'm talking about. Get to know them, and you will love them. Love them and you will know what gifts they are. They have no rival, they never have, they never will. My M3 BMW was awesome.. But it didn't come close to what I felt when I turned my Arabian stallion home, gave him his head... And let him loose, bareback... There is nothing that comes close... It's spiritual. God bless the beautiful horse.
In 2015, I was in a coma from a really bad fall and woke up after a couple weeks and on New Years 2018, I broke both my legs from a really bad fall. I still can't walk and won't be able to properly after a couple years. But at least I have a horse so I can ride it anyway but I will take it easy, don't want to make the break permanent.
+Hannah Neve Murray Yes I am fine. It's only been a month since (happened on New Years) I am currently in a wheelchair so yeah, I have to was a few more months until I can be on crutches and when I can be on crutches, I am allowed at least 30 mins of riding as long as it doesn't put pressure on my legs, so I am also expected to be stuck in walk, sitting trot, and slower canters. My first horse I rode ever died from a heart attack. It is really hard to find a symptom of a horse heart attack, so the horse would just drop dead. It's sad really. Did your horse survive?
I can't wait, I'm getting 2 horses in a week, my best friend shared her horse with me but sadly, he passed away. I will be sharing these horses with her and we both love to ride, my friend Jordan is kind enough buy these horses for me and personally drive them to me even though he lives in a different state than me, then we're going to surprise my friend with them, wish us luck 😁
Exactly. They say all we do is sit there but the real "sitting there" tlak about car racing, and yet it's very famous. Cars you can fix the engine and program it the way you want. Horse is a breathing animal. An unpredictable one. It's all about the bond and trust.
My older sister tells me "You do the LAZYEST sport ever" And then I'm like "Oh really how is that now?" My older sister says "All you do is sit on a horse and do nothing!!" Then I'm like "Well you see you do football and all you do is kick a ball around and actually when trotting your going up and down and when jumping you are folding and when galloping you are not sitting down sooo.... and anyway you don't go to football anymore so at least I'm doing a sport instead of on my phone all day" My older sister -speechless-
No one: (Some)Non-Equestrians: Horse back riding isn’t a sport Me: TELL ME MORE ABOUT HOW FOOTBALL IS IN THE OLYMPICS? AND TELL ME MORE ABOUT HOW HORSE BACK RIDING IS?!
I agree 100%!!! I hate it when people say what do you do for a sport and I say I do horse back riding and they always laugh and say it’s not a sport! It’s and you get to know and love your horse you start to trust it with all your heart you go through the good and the bad with them! Every time you get better it’s not just you getting better but it’s also the horse getting better too!!! You take a risk every day when you get on Your horse but your horse also takes a risk and that risk is them getting hurt in some way! The horse and you both have to trust each other feel the love and have a bond if you don’t have that then you mostly likely won’t try as hard because you’re looking for something else instead of looking for something else look at the beautiful creature right in front of you that has done so much for you!!! ❤️!!!
Yea all the cheerleaders at school are like our sport is way harder you just sit there and im like I'd like to see you climb on a horse and ride it and see how it goes
Never really have a horse and ride it here and there, but since my Father always rent a horse for me...I know it's not easy lol, not even for the trot 😂 Horses are my most favorite animal since I was 3 y.o and now I'm saving for a horse :3
To be honest I always knew it was very dangerous to ride a horse and you need to practise nearly five hours a day That is why I really love horse riders AND I SWEAR TO GOD WHO EVER SAYS ITS NOT A SPORT THEY CAN GO TRY FOR THEM SELVES (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ
This happened to me when my friend was at my farm and I said well you get up there and try so they did it and couldn’t make my horse move a step he just stood there and got so bored he started grazing the grass at the side of the pen, then my friend said he was lazy and I got on and cantered and galloped and jumped verticals and jumps taller than the fence and he got back on and same thing the horse just stood there, to this day I still tease him about it
I’m only 10 and not really that good at horse riding. I mean as in: -I’m scared of galloping -I’ve never jumped -I mostly ride smaller horses-140-150cm But when I’m having my lessons and I’m unable to do something like leaning back, my mum always then scalds me for not listening to the instructor and that “it’s not hard to just lean backwards” Yes it is, if I’m being pulled forwards by gravity
Try to keep your heels down, I'm not to good at this either. When you keep your heels down your kind of refusing to go forward, the just sit back like your in a couch! (Keep the good posture though lol!)🙂
I'm 10. I've been riding for 4 years and I still haven't galloped or jumped too high and I have two ponies but that doesn't mean that I'm not doing well. All of those riders you see on the olympics or at the grad prix, they don't ride perfect 24 7! Don't let others take you down! Stay warm. Stay safe. Stay with unbroken bones. And yeah!
real equestrians dont wear cowboy hats because they "trust their horse" real equestrians wear helmets so that they could never die from a hit to the head, so that their horses will never have to feel lonely, so that their horses don't have to get sold, so that their horses never have to learn how to trust again, so that their horse does not think that you left them to stay with another human. Real equestrians were helmets because they love their horse and would never want to leave them. So please, wear your helmets.... your horse, family, and friends will thank you.
You know there are cowboy hats with built in helmets? That those hats are often required in certain shows, that they make hats that fit around helmets?
My current horse went through SIX OWNERS in a MONTH because he had one half broken back tooth. I've got half of the tooth in my room. I love my son. My teacher might not because I got away with not doing any proper work because I broke my writing hand.
it isn't cool to say that plp must wear a helmer. everybody should choose what they prefer more. in my opinion being a real equestrian is how u ride because if u wear a helmet it doesn't mean u should be recless and don't think at all the most important thing is to know whar are u doing. (i am not haiting on helmets they are good and i use it) for example cowboys and indians didn't wore helmets but i must say they were the best riders. (sry if my grammar is bad)
It is easy to steer, walk, trot, canter, but thats only a fraction of what sport horses and riders have to do. The jumps, the training, the muscle development, the slight points of pressure and communication. I can ride, but could never do competitions.
my horse wont even stop if its a standard she will still jump it so i cant relate but i used to ride a TB that would do that and i had ridden her for a week and in that week i fell off her twice and got trampled once and always landed on her neck so i feel yah
A boy in my old class always said that it was easy and then i putted him on my horse he was actually scared! The bravest boy of my old class, i laught so hard hahha
@@gvmmy_bear I've ridden horses before ;There's this beach where I live that they take the racehorses to exercise and if your lucky enough you'll get a chance to ride them! I remember my first time on one of their backs (I think his name was Garnet) and I couldn't stop hugging him! Just the feeling of being on such a large and wonderful creature's back is awesome! I've always wanted to do dressage (I really like dressage )with my very own horse! But I doubt I'll ever be able to ride.. Horses aren't the easiest animals to take care of.. And to do riding would take a lot of time dedication and practice. Not to mention I have school work, my parents are busy, and there aren't even lots of stables I can board or learn Lessons. Guess those dreams won't come true. But anyway, what event do you do?
Søfï Crëst Show jumping! I’ve always loved show jumping, and have been in some show jumping events! And, when your older maybe you could take lessons when you can drive! Dressage is a really cool event, if I didn’t do show jumping, dressage or cross country would be my second option. I bet if you ever do end up riding horses, you’ll be really good at dressage!
I ride, i feel you. My best friend came to watch me one day, and just sat there in an overreacted cowgirl costume, laughing and wishing she could ride with me. Its not easy.....
There is nothing easy about it. It takes patience, courage, commitment, time, love, forgiveness, dedication, understanding, timing, good sense, and money! Great video!

I hate when people say that they just "Sit there"
People just "sit there" when racing cars yet it's a very popular sport....
Is car racing an actual sport?
If so, I need to rethink my goddamn life
Culita Eugen yea I guess it is. Racing is very hard though, no doubt you got to control a fast car. That’s hard. I myself struggle already with controlling a cantering horse.
Skye TheWoof but with a car though they have brakes. And can be controlled while horses are living and breathing animals. So i would think horses are harder. Yes driving a car can be hard but not nearly as hard as controlling an animal that could flip any second
@@cybertronicgamer9589 yes i agree. But just know a car could just tip as fast
I had a friend who was toxic to me and tried to make me feel bad about the one thing im proud of. My riding. She isnt my friend anymore. She told me that riding was easy, that the horse did all the work. I sat her on top of a horse and cantered circles around her while she sat on an older beginner horse walking around the arena. She even had the audacity to demand that SHE do all of that stuff because it was so easy. My instructor asked her to trot. She couldn't. By that point i was jumping and practicing getting my horse in frame, and she was extrememly frustrated. To this day i still grin at the memory.
Ahahah I did that too my old friend
Bitch didn’t know what she was getting herself into
I want to do the same to Some Guys that say, it’s easy
I ride western, I applaud you for jumping lol I could never jump! Haha!
You do good thing. 💪😌
So many people have told me that "You just sit there." 🤦♀️
Same
People told me horses are T H I C C
And they told me who ever is thicc is retarded so they said the horse is retarded
@Lauren Collins or u just sit there on the horse and pull the reigns!!!!😡😠 IT'S SO FRUSTRATING! !!!
bruh, we are like using every muscle in our body when we are on the saddle. and that we burn CALORIES, which is similar to what happens when you do SPORT.
Have the horse I ride: Dingo. He’s not my pony, i just ride him with riding lessons. When people say: *”You just sit there”* Im Like: Have you ever even ridden a horse? ;w; because like some of them, you really have to use you’re sit to keep them walking where you want the to walk xD
Whenever someone says,”You just sit there.” Take it as a compliment. It means your making it look easy
Tru
No don’t do it defend your self fite for it do it
@@kellywelch8423 fight
the faxxs lol
cos literally all you do is sit there and hit and abuse an animal. its a terrible thing to do and you'll get your karma for it.
Somebody: What sport do you do?
Me: I' m an equestrian
Somebody: That's so easy. That's not a sport
Me: Well get up to the saddle and try it by yourself
Somebody: No way, horses are scary
Your English was perfect!
Its true
Well ya said everything g like a true English man so I wouldent if thought you were any different :3
Lol, I wish I had stuck with horseback riding, I miss it a lot😭
YAAS i told the same thing to my friends but they are scared 😂😂😂😙✌️
Horse riding isn't a sport. It's so much more than that. It's my life.
Y IS THAT SO TRUE :D
it is a sport
I agree but it's still a sport Xp
I would love to be able to say that... because I'm pretty sure it would be if I just had the chance to learn it... I've ALWAYS wanted to learn it...
Szegeny lovak
Even when you’re not as dedicated as a rider, it still takes every ounce of what you’ve got to do whatever you do with that horse.
Heck casual horseback riding is the one and only reason I have abs
True
And btw
My friend died cuz she fell off a horse
😭I'm really gonna miss her😭
fifthlover 4ever aw I’m sorry 😢 she’s happy up riding the horses in heaven
i relate
So you're saying instead of doing 50 situps every night before bed I could just go ride one of my favorite animals every day...???
@@Idk-yk2ux I'm so sorry!
It rips me up when people say it’s not a sport and it’s “easy” well let me say tons of riders break there bones, get concussions or even DIE. So to all those people who thinks it’s easy I’d think twice about it.
Ikr
So true
So true. I should show this to my friend who thinks its easy and that she can just gallop away.
Nah It’s kind if easy tbh
You are stupid people think that it's okay to hurt horse. Can you even imagine how much it take for horse to carry a person on the back with some peace of metal inside of the mouth for hurting horse more in order to control
It kinda looks like an epic movie Trailer 🤔
i agree
I liked your comment and then it said an error occurred
Ikr it’s a really cool video!

Omg!! I does!
I am not an equestrian but I am in love with horses and I study them with all my heart and I do know the risk u guys take each and every day
DaWolf Girl You should give it a try! I bet you would be great! 🙂
Sara Diamondheart I would love two but unfortunately my family don’t have the money or time for a horse + there’s no riding lessons near where we live x
DaWolf Girl Aww I understand. But maybe one day you’ll be able to ride ❤️ and you would be great at it
Sara Diamondheart ty
Same, I can almost recognize a horse just by looking at it. I super badly wanna ride
I'm not one of them
*But I'm proud of them.*
And I have supported them all my life knowing it's hard before I even saw this.
i love u
You’re amazing
You're just amazing!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
i adore you
My friend: "horse riding isnt dangerous"
Me: have you made a little mistake and a horse has fallen on you and u almost died but got back up on the saddle?
My friend : ...
It's the most dangerous sport my someone at a stable broke there neck and there leg and my friend STILL says it's not dangerous 😲😲😲
@@techno-was-a-legend3681
Me: Explain how if it isn't dangerous why does research say it's the *second most dangerous sport in the world..?*
Friend: *. . .*
I didn’t get straight back on the saddle when I got bucked off i’m only 10 five days later I got back on the Horse that bucked me off
DROP THE FRIEND
Horse riding is a dangerous sport that requires balance, stamina and skill. Do u know how much times we get kicked or bitten. It is defiantly a sport
I am NOT saying it is the horses fault so calm down. God
Nebula Bunny no they aren’t 😂 don’t be so ignorant. Horse riding is harder than any other sport
Erin Finnerty yup being stepped on hurts like a mother trucker! And Being kicked in the back of the knee
AMEN TO THAT SISTER!
Bessie Thomson ummmm yes they do 😂
Erin Finnerty omg yesssss
Lol I can just imagine a kid in their class saying
“Horse riding is easy”
Then the videos plays
YESH
Charlotte T it’s still easy?
CalilOkifir you’ve obviously never rode a horse bruh
yeah if it is that easy I'll take you to my horse (a mare) and let you do your thing, let's se how long you'll survive ^^
Oooo burn!
My friends: Hey! You do a sport?
Me: Yeah I'm an equestrian!
Them: Hah! That is SO easy!
Me: ~Shows them pictures of my mare Phinn continuously trying to throw me off with no stirrups~
Also me: Still think it's easy?
Them: Well.....
Me: ~Get's Phinn all tacked up~ Try it!
Them: ~Walks away, defeated~
you have a horse? i don’t even have a single pet fish or pet rock.
I know its not easy i do it i don't have a horse but it hard
I’ve learned a lesson that I will never forget, don’t give up, if you get hurt if you get kicked off, nothing Matters all that matters is that you don’t give up, giving up means that you’ve been defeated.
Lucky! I wish you could give me tips! 😢😢
My mom rode horses her entire life but after she broke her tail bone and got an concussion she has been afraid to get on another horse. She talks about how she misses riding but when she gets her horse tacked up she just can't bring herself to get on again 😔
I agree with this. I train horses but I’m also an eventer. I have this same expirience. People make fun of me because they say it’s easy and horses are weak, but when I fell off my horse at 16 years old I broke my leg and arm. My fingers were crushed. I thought that it would be the end because the one horse I loved died in the accident. He snapped his ankle in half. People stopped making fun of me and started morning with me. I miss him so much and now I train and do eventing all for him.
Same with me, when I was doing a competition my pony refused the jump and I fell and I was dangling he galloped of and snapped his neck bc he went running into a tree but by then I jumped of from my stirrups, and he died the day after
I’m so sorry for both of you. I wish the best for you
Student Mackynze Wolfe it’s fine dw I just miss him sooooo much he was like my best friend xxx
HorseGirl 408 ❤️
HorseGirl 408 Aww I’m so sorry :(
I ride horses, Yes, some people do think it's easy.
They say all you have to do is kick the horse with the stirrups and there you go, a runaway horse.
These horses work hard for they're riders, can't we just give them some respect?
@@lucinetamashi1775 i get spurs aren't the best but some horses need convincing, especially if you just start out and already have weak legs so you cant kick hard, I've had to use spurs on my horse because shes a stubborn horse and kicking without spurs sometimes isnt enough for her
My logic:
Mom: *this year we are going to travel to Africa*
Me: How much does it cost?
Mom: *€10000*
Me: wait! You can buy 3 horses with that!!!
Am I the only one?
Not the only one. I see large amounts of money, and I see a stable.
Lmao, I do that with everything that sounds expenisve😂
You can buy more than 3. When we bought our horse we only paid 500€. He was only 5 months old back than and he is a Haflinger and not some Dressage horse but still...
Well it was a great price for such an amazing horse. His breeders definitely sold him for way less than he is worth.
(If you live in Europe and want a pony, please consider a Haflinger from Tirol in Austria. If no one buys them they go to the butchers.)
Mond thanks! I will go look at them!
Blue Space buy meh oneee xD
I had goose-bumps throughout the entire vid.
As an Equestrian I hear people say these things all the time.
When I was in grade 2
my teacher said:
"So honey, what sport do you do?"
"Horse riding!" I replied
"That's not a sport honey" she said.
me: "Have YOU ever fallen off something going SSSUUUPPPEEERRRR
fast, and doesn't speak your language, and can kill you if you make ONE WRONG MOVE?!?!?!?!?!"
She just gulped and said: "ok honey, whatever you say." And walked away.
She didn't speak to me for the rest of the class. lol
Like the concept 👍
My friends always say “what do you do for sport?” I say “ I ride” they say “it’s not a sport its easy horses are dangerous they do all the work” I say “ have you tried it? Have you jumped with the risk of breaking a bone or die? Have you galloped on a beautiful creature that can trample you if you fall? Have you trusted an animal that can turn its back on you at any moment? Have you ridden an 18 hand horse? Have you cantered bareback?” My main question is have you come face to face with a A big animal 10 times your size that’s pure meat and muscle?”
We equestrians risk our lives and so do our lovely friends
Brighton McFarland so true I die reading dis I ride horses my cousin died falling off a horse R.I.P Sarah We miss you 1999-2019 only 20 still had years to go but she died doing what she loves and I love and the horse was almost put down but my sis saved him and know he lives a good life doing trail rides,and barrel racing I LOVE ❤️ RIDING
Idk who on earth would call this easy, but who ever did that your crazy lol
Wølf Spy *cough* non equestrians at my school *cough*

There is such thing as a white horse but I get what u mean,once a little girl came up to me while I was riding and she almost got stepped on (not my fault) (or the horses) and she ran to her mom crying and I heard her say to her mom “MOMMY THAT WHITE HORSE ALMOST KILLED ME”! And the worse was... my horse is a CREMELLO! It’s not even GRAY or WHITE like it triggered me! Like plus you ran right in front of my horse while it was cantering.... like u dumb or something?

I’m an Equestrian, trust me... riding a horse is not easy, it takes a lot of work.
And practice and sometimes the horse disent even trust you at first
oh yah... i have been riding for as long as i can remember and it is still hard. but that is what i love about it.

I could say the opposite. It's annoying when people think that THE HORSE RIDING ISN'T A SPORT?! THEY SAY IT'S EASY?! THEY SAY YOU WON'T FALL?! THEY SAY EVERYONE COULD DO IT?! THEY SAY YOU DON'T DO ANYTHING, JUST SIT THERE?!
No. You control the horse, you do ALOT more things than just sit there.
No, it's not easy. Test it, it's not EASY. YOU COULD FELL, YOU MIGHT DIE
*IT'S NOT EASY*
You have to learn different movements and to stay calm or the horse will 99.999% buck
Keep a invisible horse in front of your horse any further then that you gotta back up( if with other riders)
Yeah

"The horse does all the work...all you do is sit their and pull the reins a bit. how are you tierd?" it triggers me so bad like i've been riding horses my whole life! He just dosen't understand, like and comment if you understand.
When my Brother does that I Just start telling him of some of the horses I had to handle at Work. Some were nicer than others admittedly but some of the more Strong willed ones, oh boy the "fun" we Had together is a memory I will never loose. By now He thinks im crazy for doing what I do.😅
(Im Not an equestrian by any means, i did horseback riding for some time when I was Younger but i had to Stop unfortunately, now i Work at an equine clinic and trough that I was able to rediscover my passion for horses in a way.)
My brother says he could jump four feet with only two days of practice lol
My brother is the opposite 😂 i try to get him to ride but he just says its too much work or its boring or its too cold 😂
Yesh
I understand I've been riding for years now and unsurprisingly I've fallen enough times it doesn't even hurt anymore.
From people sitting straight up in the saddle to perform an intricate dance to tiny people crouching in the stirrups, weighing to the point that the horse will barely feel them as it barrels down a track, these people live a life of danger but with passion. Then you have the daredevils and flying steeds that go over obstacles fearlessly and to the ones that slide to a halt within seconds and those that spin around a barrel in a certain pattern. Riders and horses take hours and hours of practice to perfect what they want to do. This costs money, time, effort, energy, patience, trust, and confidence to do what they are pursuing. It's an emotional roller coaster as well, for both horse, rider, and the entire team that's backing them up.
Horseback riding isn't just a sport or a hobby for some people, it's a lifestyle for them. They made it part of their life. Even for those who do it for fun know that it's damn well hard to do and ain't easy in the slightest.

I mean if horseback riding is so "easy" why is it an olympic discipline and football is not?
Horse riding is a sport do you not see me using leg muscle and having to keep my heels down trust me say that to my dead calves cause I practice 5 hours a day but let my horses rest a little I mean look at my pic I do dressage and jumping I’ve fallen off and gotten 6 concussions and broken bones many times I was competing in 2014 and my horse tripped on a cross country horse jump and I fell and my horse fell and got a sprained knee and I broke an arm and a ankle and also got a concussion my horses leg was cut up I got cut on my stomach and I had a super nasty fall it was nasty the medical team ran out and they had to hurry and rush me in and rush my horse into the vet I could’ve died
Also watch rodeo bull dogging they jump off their horse and wrestle a bull to the ground and watch horse sports watch a rider fall I’ve fallen 7 feet
You are trusting a living breathing animal with your life if a horse wanted a horse could crush you skull in an intstant
@Marilou Moquin Lmao no one watch it outside America and Canada because it sucks... even the name is fucked up.
@Marilou Moquin yeah I meant soccer.. I still don't get why you call it football if you don't use your feet. If you know please enlighten me
I cant even count How many times i got angry becaus pepols say that riding is simple! It takes power! Not every one Can do it. Your STRONG if you can!!!!
I came very close to sticking someone on the back of my horse and setting up jumps in the paddock.
I know how it feels to fall off halfway over one of them buggers.
I just tell them if they can groom, tack, do both a hunter and jumper course along with a dressage test and they don’t fall off and do it perfectly than they can say it’s “easy”
That usually shuts them up pretty quick.
Julie The Horse Girl I do two sports and my gymnastics coach says I shouldn’t spend so much time doing my horses and I’m like.

Me: “your right, it’s the most dangerous one :)”
no
@Marilou Moquin I ride myself and it is not at all dangerous
@Marilou Moquin yes and dressage to
@Marilou Moquin i have 1 mare and 2 stallion
@@johannalapuste4720 please tell me how being on an unpredictable animal with a mind of it own, an animal who's mood can change in a second, who can trip or make a mistake at anytime, please tell me how it is not an dangerous sport. By the way dressage is really hard but it is probably the least dangerous in the equestrian world. Really hard but not as dangerous as cross country, racing, barrel racing...

The short beanz: you called?
as a short bean I am here xD
Me being a 5’1 person: *if you’re talking about my 6’2 brother, yes*
Exactly, I’m 9 years old and I ride 16hh horses.
I would MUCH MUCH, MUCH, MUCH, MUCH!!!!! Rather me fall off of the horse then that horse fall over.
the size of the horse doesnt matter x
@@sunflowerhols exactly! I ride two horse, one which is 5.58 feet and one which is 4.11 feet (1.70 and 1.50 meters because i'm not sure with english height measure ^^°)
And the second is waaaaaay more difficult than first!
I'm ten I ride 17 hand horse oof
Im nine too i get thst people say its easy
Have they felt the pain of jumping a horse and falling? Of a horse kicking u in the face? WE RISK OUR LIVES
People say they are dangerous but humans ma,e them crazy
HelloU_Gacha I agree with you. I would rather fall off aswell!
THANK YOU!!!!! My friends say “oh that’s *way* to easy. Gymnastics is harder!” But have they ever seen just how hard and how much work it is to ride? NO!
I need to show this to my f*cking classmates
Go for it
If u do it I’ll do it to mine to
i showed this to my class for a project because we got to do a project and i used this video, everybody was quiet except for 2 boys who responded to the words on the screen. They still think it’s easy, but that’s too bad.
Saddleup Vlogs u should invite them over for a ride😂
Lisa Britz I definitely will 😂
People who have no idea: "You just sit there. It's easy. Anyone could do it."
Me: "No. We take risk. We use the time of our day to practice and train."
this is so true people tell me everyday "its not a sport" or "its easy" its so nice that someone finally put it in words
True
pepper dog SO TRUE
I stand up for myself as much as I stand up, to stop abuse.
I cannot have put the words together more perfectly
pepper dog take them see u ride and let them ride them by themself and dont give them tips. Lets see is it easy, u could let them jump 100 cm too. They said its easy so..
pepper dog I agree 100%
You know what this is a real sport and I am so sick of people telling me it is not a real sport and they can do it or we are weak because they say the horse dose all the work but they don't work 5 hours a day 7 days a week and have fallen on there head 24 times and got back up again because they would have given up but we the true horse lovers and riders never give up no mater how much times or days they worked or have fallen the video is too true I love it.
Holly Hummingbirdriver you are right I am sick of it and I do exactly what you do 5 hours 7 days of the week have fallen like 20 times it’s hard you need trust in your horse and confidence and you need to know how to ride and I’m not even gonna start I put how it’s all the horse doing it It’s Saturday and I finished riding yesterday and my legs are sore but I am going back today
Its Olivia srsly you an English teacher
Agreed!
Thank uuuuu
I’m sick of it too. Especially when a non-rider makes fun of a rider when they think it’s easy when it’s truely not I get teased just because of people think it’s not a sport and is easy.
Not a horse fan but still don’t understand who says that like I could just say to a football player “You just kick the ball” BRUH
Cause they do
I agree every sport is hard
yeah but that's not the point of the video... I am a horse rider and when someone asks me what sport I do, I say horse riding... and they usually say that's not a sport they are like a sport is football, lacrosse, volleyball...etc. they think that because we are not running around and the horse is that it is easy when really the courage and trust that it takes is very difficult to do... in none of those sports you putting all your trust in an animal that can kill you
they only fall 3ft i fall 6
I don't understand football. you always kick the ball away. it's not logical.
another story so i wanted to prove to my "friend" that horse riding isnt easy and she was like omg its ssooooo easy then she got on the saddle and fell off on the other side and i just laughed X
Im an equestrian myself, and this is amazing! Im tired of hearing people say "oh thats not a sport" I remember when I was at school and someone asked me what my favourite sport was, I said "I'm an equestrian" they said "no whats you're favourite SPORT not someone being lazy and and sitting there" I said "horse back riding IS a sport, ask the teacher" they said "okay, I will" and what the teacher said made me so mad. This is what she said: "you need to go to kindergarten, horse back riding is not a sport. A sport is when you work hard, get muscles, try HARD, horse back riding is just sitting there and let you're horse do all the work." I got mad and told her a bunch of stuff that you have to do.
She said "ok" and rolled her eyes
Some teacher, eh?
Lol, to those who say riding is easy and not a real sport, I say "My sport is in the Olympics. Is yours?" 😏
The only reason people think it is easy is because we're so good, we make it look easy.
Every freaking time I say I'm an equestrian people say something like,, Oh, yeah, I could do thet too, you JUST STAY THERE and do.. nothing. '' and I am so fcking annoyed by the people who say that.
I actually made one of my friends that said that come to a lesson with me. Sat them on my barrel horse and told them to walk the pattern. They walked it said it was simple, anyone could do it. So I told them jog, they fell. Now they back me up whenever anyone says its easy XD
Iliana Coxen wallpapers,you re a genius
Thank you, thank you 😂
Roxana M I know I hate it and people say I could bet you I’m like no you can’t you don’t ride if you try to do what I do you would not like it
Roxana M there's a girl at my school she says riding is a sport (remember this) but one day she asked everybody what their favorite sport is everybody normally said soccer basketball football you know the usual. But when she got to me I said equestrian and she said, but thats not a sport..... You don't want to know what happened but neither to say she never talked to me again.
"Have you ever practiced 5 hours a day 7 days a week?"
*me who is in marching band and practices 2 hours in the morning, 6 in the afternoon, sometimes on weekend, plus 2 hours of practice at home* 👁👄👁
But good concept tho, you guys are very brave, I couldn't see myself riding something going at almost 50mph and like 7 feet tall and making crazy jumps and things like that😅
@elainetumbleton9497 ikr lovely comment both of you ❤️
It's supposed to look easy until you actually do it.
Equestrianism can be done with little effort if you use training gadgets and/or have a push button horse.
But when you do it for real, that's when it's more than a hobby. It becomes a sport.
So true with any sport but with riding and swimming especially
It is a hard job
Horseback riding isn't and was never a hobby, just saying.
"all you do is sit there,tap their stomach,and pull those string" "you just force the horses to jump and just sit down and hold on" "football is way harder" "i could handle a horse any time,you only feed them 1 time" "it takes no practice to ride a horse i can just get on and gallop away" these are some things i've heard my years of riding.
Oh I love people who think that they can gallop on their first time riding and then they trot, lose it, and fall of the horse and then ask, "was I galloping?"
I would love to see them try it.
@@YouDoNotKnowWhoIAm kids in elementary thought I was the weird kid because I had horses and they thought riding was easy. I would have loved to show up to school on horseback, jump the fence into school and tell them to do the same and see how "easy" it really is.
/7\ 🏇
Do people actually think they can gallop on their first try? It literally took me a year to be able to trot without a lead rope, though I still don't know how to gallop because my horse riding lessons had to stop because of Covid. Though I'm going to apply for the equine studies course at Myerscough this year, wish me luck!
@@gjorski9714 lol they just have no idea.
They’re obviously not around the beautiful, dangerous and majestic animals enough.
I agree with this. But from the way I see it you should never feel like you’re going to die, if you are truly an equestrian than you trust your horse with not only your performance but with your life. Yes I have been nervous about falling off before, but never that my horse would let me get hurt if it could stop it at all. Plus half of riding is being knowing that you are taking a risk, but still trusting your mount. Please don’t hate. It’s just my opinion.
I love horses I am not hating. This MY opinion. The truth is you COULD die with one mistake whether you feel it or not. I trust my horse with my life but I still make conscious decisions like when he tears to lean forward because if I lean back I could die. Also I choose to wear a helmet. Like I said I trust him with my life, but you as an equestrian should always be cautious around a horse no matter how much you trust it. Like I said just my opinions
Bumble Bee Slimes I agree and I wear a helmet too, but I feel like the way they said it was like thus shouldn’t be trusted at all with your life.
i agree, but, even when youre putting all the trust you have into your horse, things do go wrong. a horse could be spooked, you could have your position wrong and get hurt, etc
I love horses not the point of the video xd
My dad died from a riding accident but he loved it more than anything
Some girls say "I am an equestrian"
But all they do is drive to the barn and ride.
The groom does everything else for them.
A true equestrian will......
Wake up at 5:00 am to......feed,water,muck out stables,brush,clean tack,tack up,ride,untack,brush,give bath,put back in barn and repeat.
Am learning all that stuff. And am excited.
Well, I just recently started riding, so I don’t know that yet, and the barn I go to is half an hour away, so I wouldn’t be able to, but I SO would if I could
A survey was done with over 60 athletes, testing different parts of their strength. In every single category, the 3 horse riders in the survery were in the top 5 because you have to be so strong to ride
all i want to say to all the people saying ITS SOOOO EASY YOURE JUST WEAAAAKK!
*how about.....you try it?*
Yes, exactly
Yes! Like, they all say "I could do it without even training " so I say IF YOU THINK ITS THET EASY WHY DON'T YOU TRY?
Amen to that! Lemme tell ya, I don't own a horse so therefore I don't know the hours and money put into their care, maintenance and training. But, I did ride horses for a very long time and I do understand the concept of having a being just as intelligent as you and way more powerful than you underneath you and beside you, and believe me. Ain't anything better than the feeling that a fellow being has a kinship with you. When you find a creature as massive, magnificent, and powerful as a horse shares that special bond with you, then you'll truly understand and appreciate why people do what they do when they put in all that time, money and effort into these creatures. Sorry for the long comment...lol
@@kierasilvershield4140 Very true!
Silixia hey, I mean no harm and I’m just putting my opinion out here I really do mean no disrespect so please don’t come back and get mad at me for this.
Here is my stance:
Is horse back riding easy: Well fuck no.
Is horse back riding a sport: Not Exactly
Is horse back riding one of the easier “sports” to quickly pick up and be somewhat competent in: Yes Definitely
Is horse back riding the hardest “sport”: well fuck no.
Now the reason I say it’s not exactly a sport is because I think the term sport has become much more of an umbrella term. I think sports are things that are never or were never done in natural life that take precise skill athleticism and coordination. I think a lot of the people who run track or horseback ride do just really want to feel included with the sports and the things that most people care about paying attention to so this whole debate started. Am I saying it’s not in any way a sport? No. I’m saying it is an extremely general partial sport. Does that mean I’m saying it’s easy? Well again, fuck no.
Again, I just really wanted to put my opinion out here, I don’t want this to start some crazy people yelling at me or getting angry debate. I just want to see what people think of what I say. So please, I beg of you, this is absolutely nothing personal, it’s just a friendly argument/ debate I’d like to take part in. Thank you for your time and thank you so much for reading this,
Sean.
Horses have minds of their own. They will not always obey you, they have limits. Like you do too.
This week was my equestrian camp. We all took part even though we knew the risk. We were galloping the horses. My horse takes a very sharp turn and I’m not prepared. I slide I fall and I now have a big graze on my hip. We know the risk but we don’t let fear become stronger than confidence and passion. Our scars make us stronger and our confidence drives us forward. We are Equestrians! 🤩🏇🐎 (Been sitting in my bed hurting for two days)
I am crying god I miss this so much. To anyone who says this is easy go get your head check. It’s the biggest risk us horse lovers take. But so worth it
I wish everyone who says its easy would get kicked by a moody mare ngl
@@ridinhigh5548 I agree.
Even though I’m not an Equestrian, I’m proud of those who are.
It is a big risk they take, and they do make it look easy.
Because they do it so well with confidence and belief in themselves and their horses, it could easily be mistaken as “easy”.
It’s one of the - if not the - most DANGEROUS and HARDEST sports in the world.
❤ horses ❤ Equestrians ❤
@@allanjensen125 i love when the few people who ain't equestrians actually agree with the danger and beauty of its sport
@@allanjensen125 i'm actually about to take a huge step next year in the horse industry, i live in europe but ive trained a lot of dangerous rescues, mostly tall warmbloods (first case was by far the worst ive seen)
And im actually starting to save money so i can participate in extreme mustang makeover next year!
Note:
My god mother was an olympic level show jumper, she quit competing a few years back and sold her geldings but she taught me a lot, and i got her blessing to participate in the makeover which meant the world to me ngl
@@ridinhigh5548 yeah it’s quite unusual to see a non- Equestrian say horse riding isn’t easy.
They have obviously thought it through and have their head screwed in the right way……. Unlike some. 🤥😑🫤😐😬🙄🫥
OMGG I'M ALMOST CRYINGG...😭😭ACTUALY I'M CRYING people who tinks that riding is easy that we just sit on that " animal " are wrong. They dont know how many lifes dye every year how many falls and wins are here... yes horse riding isnt just a sport is more... is my-OUR whole life... and these people are wrong.... dont care about people who tinks..... care abaut people who loves you and riding ❤
THANK YOU!! Equestrianism has been rated the most dangerous sport, OVER race car racing and other sports. One time, on the news, they had a whole discussion on how dangerous Equestrianism is, and all. I work, ride, and care for polo ponies, and those are the most stuck up horse you'll ever meet, because they are so valuable to the game, and they know it. Without them, there is no game, and they Lord it over you. I've been kicked multiple times, nipped, almost bitted on the face and shoulder, pushed, shoved, slammed. And they swing their head at you like a club. So, tell your brother to come down to the brandywine polo club, and I'll have him help me with my horses. See what he thinks then, and that's not even RIDING them!
Amber Dragon try competitive cheerlesding😂
+Sierra Samways
Why?
Before I started riding, I was a dancer for 10 years and the style of dance I did is actually very similar to competitive cheerleading, it is not hard and mistakes are almost always harmless.
But in riding, I was once in a 9 day coma 3 years ago, and recently, on New Years, I broke both my legs going over a 1.40m jump and fell onto the concrete. (one leg had bone sticking out) and it was horrible.
And the only serious injury I had in 10 years of dance was breaking my pinkie from doing an one of the most dangerous overhead lifts.
I thought gymnastics was the most dangerous sport.
this is so true! i hate it when people are like "ridings not a sport, you dont do anything you are just there for the ride, the horse s the only one working"
Am I the only one who gets into these situations 99.9% of the time??
And has anyone else gotten into a situation where people ask "what sport do you PLAY?" And you don't want to answer because your an equestrian and we don't PLAY, we work our asses off to be the best we can, in other sports you have a chance of getting a broken bone, concussion, or mild injuries like that. But equestrians could snap their neck, get crushed, or even trampled. Bucked, thrown, or even fall- and we still get back in the saddle. In my opinion we don't PLAY a sport we WORK at a sport!🐎
Demon Killer we can also actually be straight up be killed. Even By the horse
To support your comment, I would like to put out that in 2015, a horse bolted and I fell onto some rocks as we were hacking on a rocky area, In result I was in a coma for 2 weeks. Recently, at New Years 2018, I had another dangerous fall and broke both my legs, (on one leg the bone was sticking out of my skin)
Horse falls may sometimes be harmless but when you try a difficult horse, any danger can happen.
I would also like to put out for no reason.
Football isn't a proper sport, it is a game.
Anyone can sit on a horse. But it takes skill and work and practice to ride a horse
Yesss exactly!
This is so true people sit on horses and then say it is easy they have not tried to jump on a young horse that has never jumped
Amazing 💕 I would show everyone that says to me that its easy and not a sport. The risks we take? The things we do? Eqestrian are not easy!
Ludde hopp well said 😏☺️
Ludde hopp SHITT AGREEED WE ARE EQUESTRIAN NOW MATTER WAT
Ludde hopp ur right and how old are u? I'm 9 and ride
And also I totally agree
Ludde hopp same
Those of us who love the horse...
We wouldn't want to be injured by anything else,
We wouldn't want to die, but by a horse...
We wouldnt be associated with any other Animal...but the horse.
The horse alone can and is, many, many peoples lives.
Humanity itself would not be if not for the horse.
Only if you truly know these stunning animals will you have any idea of what I'm talking about.
Get to know them, and you will love them.
Love them and you will know what gifts they are.
They have no rival, they never have, they never will.
My M3 BMW was awesome.. But it didn't come close to what I felt when I turned my Arabian stallion home, gave him his head... And let him loose, bareback...
There is nothing that comes close... It's spiritual.
God bless the beautiful horse.
Typing this with a broken shoulder, I got thrown off a horse.
Wanna say it's harmless NOW?
Ari Winterlake ʚïɞ same, I broke my arm last summer tho
In 2015, I was in a coma from a really bad fall and woke up after a couple weeks and on New Years 2018, I broke both my legs from a really bad fall. I still can't walk and won't be able to properly after a couple years. But at least I have a horse so I can ride it anyway but I will take it easy, don't want to make the break permanent.
+Hannah Neve Murray
Yes I am fine. It's only been a month since (happened on New Years)
I am currently in a wheelchair so yeah, I have to was a few more months until I can be on crutches and when I can be on crutches, I am allowed at least 30 mins of riding as long as it doesn't put pressure on my legs, so I am also expected to be stuck in walk, sitting trot, and slower canters.
My first horse I rode ever died from a heart attack. It is really hard to find a symptom of a horse heart attack, so the horse would just drop dead. It's sad really.
Did your horse survive?
+Hannah Neve Murray
I'm very sorry for your loss. Rest in peace Madi. And rest in peace Robin, another horse I knew who suffered a heart attack.
i broke mine to not long ago it hurts ...
I can't wait, I'm getting 2 horses in a week, my best friend shared her horse with me but sadly, he passed away. I will be sharing these horses with her and we both love to ride, my friend Jordan is kind enough buy these horses for me and personally drive them to me even though he lives in a different state than me, then we're going to surprise my friend with them, wish us luck 😁
That's cool I have 2 of my own what kind off horse are u getting are u using it for western or English are nothing
Ty for putting this out! I’ve went through so much pan... but I try to be brave because horses can feel fear 😖😕
Fernando Is already tracer what happened did ur horse bolt or something
Abby The Chick ;0 it’s true. It’s hard not to feel fear. But the only thing you’re really scared of, is fear itself.
Your correct and yes you will go through pain but that is part of this a,azing sport.
I feel like, all people, of ALL sports should be together, not comparing how many risks we take, but sharing our experiances together.
Exactly. They say all we do is sit there but the real "sitting there" tlak about car racing, and yet it's very famous. Cars you can fix the engine and program it the way you want. Horse is a breathing animal. An unpredictable one. It's all about the bond and trust.
My older sister tells me "You do the LAZYEST sport ever"
And then I'm like "Oh really how is that now?"
My older sister says "All you do is sit on a horse and do nothing!!"
Then I'm like "Well you see you do football and all you do is kick a ball around and actually when trotting your going up and down and when jumping you are folding and when galloping you are not sitting down sooo.... and anyway you don't go to football anymore so at least I'm doing a sport instead of on my phone all day"
My older sister -speechless-
No one:
(Some)Non-Equestrians: Horse back riding isn’t a sport
Me: TELL ME MORE ABOUT HOW FOOTBALL IS IN THE OLYMPICS? AND TELL ME MORE ABOUT HOW HORSE BACK RIDING IS?!
I’m not an equestrian and I don’t think it’s easy or its not a sport. Because it’s not easy and it IS a sport
Emiyo-Chan and then somebody says it’s not easy to clean my house xd
@Aubrey Hoover no its called american football is only played in america. So it cant be put in the olympics.
@Aubrey Hoover football isn't in the Olympics because it's an American sport so not every country could take part
@Aubrey Hoover but basket ball and volleyball and water polo etc. Are large group sports and they're in the Olympics.........
I agree 100%!!! I hate it when people say what do you do for a sport and I say I do horse back riding and they always laugh and say it’s not a sport! It’s and you get to know and love your horse you start to trust it with all your heart you go through the good and the bad with them! Every time you get better it’s not just you getting better but it’s also the horse getting better too!!! You take a risk every day when you get on Your horse but your horse also takes a risk and that risk is them getting hurt in some way! The horse and you both have to trust each other feel the love and have a bond if you don’t have that then you mostly likely won’t try as hard because you’re looking for something else instead of looking for something else look at the beautiful creature right in front of you that has done so much for you!!! ❤️!!!
A horse that I loved coliced and later hurt his legs but now he is doing a lot better
I totally agree
They are so right. It takes a lot more effort than most people may think, and the way that people can just sit there and say that makes me sick.
Yea all the cheerleaders at school are like our sport is way harder you just sit there and im like I'd like to see you climb on a horse and ride it and see how it goes

That is why I really love horse riders

@@Noah-wt9so Give it a few years. :)
This happened to me when my friend was at my farm and I said well you get up there and try so they did it and couldn’t make my horse move a step he just stood there and got so bored he started grazing the grass at the side of the pen, then my friend said he was lazy and I got on and cantered and galloped and jumped verticals and jumps taller than the fence and he got back on and same thing the horse just stood there, to this day I still tease him about it
That's because the horse didn't respect him.

People: horse riding isnt a sport
me: Oh yeah? well wheres football in the olympics
I’m only 10 and not really that good at horse riding. I mean as in:
-I’m scared of galloping
-I’ve never jumped
-I mostly ride smaller horses-140-150cm
But when I’m having my lessons and I’m unable to do something like leaning back, my mum always then scalds me for not listening to the instructor and that “it’s not hard to just lean backwards”
Yes it is, if I’m being pulled forwards by gravity
Same I've never even really held onto the reins someone would just lead him with a lead dope and halter
Try to keep your heels down, I'm not to good at this either. When you keep your heels down your kind of refusing to go forward, the just sit back like your in a couch! (Keep the good posture though lol!)🙂
I'm 10. I've been riding for 4 years and I still haven't galloped or jumped too high and I have two ponies but that doesn't mean that I'm not doing well. All of those riders you see on the olympics or at the grad prix, they don't ride perfect 24 7! Don't let others take you down! Stay warm. Stay safe. Stay with unbroken bones. And yeah!
real equestrians dont wear cowboy hats because they "trust their horse" real equestrians wear helmets so that they could never die from a hit to the head, so that their horses will never have to feel lonely, so that their horses don't have to get sold, so that their horses never have to learn how to trust again, so that their horse does not think that you left them to stay with another human. Real equestrians were helmets because they love their horse and would never want to leave them. So please, wear your helmets.... your horse, family, and friends will thank you.
You know there are cowboy hats with built in helmets? That those hats are often required in certain shows, that they make hats that fit around helmets?
My current horse went through SIX OWNERS in a MONTH because he had one half broken back tooth. I've got half of the tooth in my room.
I love my son.
My teacher might not because I got away with not doing any proper work because I broke my writing hand.
it isn't cool to say that plp must wear a helmer. everybody should choose what they prefer more. in my opinion being a real equestrian is how u ride because if u wear a helmet it doesn't mean u should be recless and don't think at all the most important thing is to know whar are u doing. (i am not haiting on helmets they are good and i use it) for example cowboys and indians didn't wore helmets but i must say they were the best riders. (sry if my grammar is bad)
Actually a helmet could not always save your life.It just decreases the damage when you fall off so you won't crack your head in something.
Actually you could still die even if you wear a helmet. RIP Christopher Reeves
It is easy to steer, walk, trot, canter, but thats only a fraction of what sport horses and riders have to do. The jumps, the training, the muscle development, the slight points of pressure and communication. I can ride, but could never do competitions.
You can do competitions! You can do anything! I trust you!
Yeah! And for ppl who say “oh horseback is easy.” They probably couldn’t even trot. Or even balance themselves when walking bareback.
I really am raging right now.

@Liv Austin IT WAS SUCH A TERRIBLE HARMING-
Lmao it’s been 2 days since I had my lessons and my legs are still sore
@@gvmmy_bear I've ridden horses before ;There's this beach where I live that they take the racehorses to exercise and if your lucky enough you'll get a chance to ride them! I remember my first time on one of their backs (I think his name was Garnet) and I couldn't stop hugging him! Just the feeling of being on such a large and wonderful creature's back is awesome! I've always wanted to do dressage (I really like dressage )with my very own horse! But I doubt I'll ever be able to ride.. Horses aren't the easiest animals to take care of.. And to do riding would take a lot of time dedication and practice. Not to mention I have school work, my parents are busy, and there aren't even lots of stables I can board or learn
Lessons. Guess those dreams won't come true. But anyway, what event do you do?
Søfï Crëst Show jumping! I’ve always loved show jumping, and have been in some show jumping events! And, when your older maybe you could take lessons when you can drive! Dressage is a really cool event, if I didn’t do show jumping, dressage or cross country would be my second option. I bet if you ever do end up riding horses, you’ll be really good at dressage!
I’m so broud of us, riders. Peoples just tell like ”thats easy” but they didn’t even seen any horses in real life.❤️
Wow the one who really trains 5h every day gets my respect 😅
i do xd
But training 5 hours a day with the same horse isn't that good.
@@Anna-wd7no i got 6 horses sooo.... xd
I know it's random but......

Jumping Away oh my god😂😂😂I think they meant that’s umm well alive
Minecraft Gamer 😂😂😂

Shame!
I ride, i feel you. My best friend came to watch me one day, and just sat there in an overreacted cowgirl costume, laughing and wishing she could ride with me. Its not easy.....
There is nothing easy about it. It takes patience, courage, commitment, time, love, forgiveness, dedication, understanding, timing, good sense, and money! Great video!
