I'm sorry if I offended anyone. It's a video of a guy doing the mini prix on a dare. he's a professional polo player and doesn't know how to jump well. The horse is awesome though. It's a professional video from somewhere in Europe. Sorry again.

commenting on the video- I'm sooo surprised he stayed on, he was WAY out of the saddle every jump! props to the horse, he's a forgiving, honest jumping horse.

This video was on Fugly last week (or 2 weeks back?). Frankly I don't see anything wrong posting it as long as you don't say the name of the rider. That horse is a saint. Truly. I've NEVER seen such a horrid jumping.

BTW, to the people who do those high jumps: why is he going off so much? I did smaller jumps (on schooled horse) and never felt like flying around (I have almost 0 experience in jumping). May be because of the smaller jumps, or my horse was too good - I don't know, but the guy's riding is just looking very unnatural to me.

Seriously?! So if somebody took a video of YOU, posted it on another forum and started spewing about how big of a failure you are, you wouldn't mind? Just because they didn't say your name?

But I'm not a professional *fill-in-the-blank" jumping a course as a joke. Obviousky he knows people won't take it seriously

First, I wouldn't care. Really. I have people laughing about my falls and discussing them and have no problem with that. Also I would NEVER go to the big show not knowing how to jump/rein/cut/eta-eta-eta. Things can go wrong, you can fall (have seen it at the International Wash show last month and felt very sorry for the rider!), horse can spook, etc., but this riding is just a complete shame.

Second, if you jump at the big show like that it's recorded for public usually. Meaning you may end up on TV, or DVD, or c'mon just in front of the huge crowd. So you KNOW it'll be public and if you have no problem to show up and jump like that be prepared to the comments. If someone would post similar video about the local show - THAT would be truly offensive IMO. But sorry, not in this case.
