Amazing to watch a near 100 years old footage of horses jumping. 10/10
But 1.03 terrible to watch
Beautiful footage!
Molner competed in the three day event and won the gold medal at individual competition at the 1920 olympics. He also won gold medal in the team competition. .
Sehr gut
Why the terrible music with this great footage?
Stor mästare 🇸🇪
Such inappropriate music. Yuk!
0:04 Abuse! They have no pad
Not abuse, but a lack of knowledge and understanding of a pad's benefits ;)
That was 100 years ago and he was the best in that time.
Normally they had a leather pad contoured after the saddle, hence you can't see it. My trainer (born in 1903 had that as well). Your commentary is ignorant!
You don't need a pad when the saddle fits. The saddle itself is padded. Additional saddle pads only serve to protect the leather from sweat and dirt.
We used to ride without pads in the sixties. There was never a problem if saddles were fitted properly. Extraneous padding is often on there to hide the fact that the saddle is not properly fitted. And it keeps the underside of the saddle clean if you don't like cleaning tack. No pad - the saddle is one with the horse.
Sorry i stopped at 1.04 poor horse his mouth wow sad so hard with his hands terrible not a great hero to me
Congratulations, You found the one ugly scene to pinpoint at in a video that otherwise displays great horsemanship.
These men and horses were trained to rely on each other in situations when life and death depended on it. Yes, there is a moment of rough handling. No, You shouldn't judge the whole relationship between horse and rider on that moment.
Horses can instead forgive moments like that when they are treated well in general. It shouldn't happen, but honestly, it can happen.
It's a snaffle / pelham bit, ie quite mild. He's thrown his head up because there's a conflict about what they're going to do, and the rider had to stop him suddenly.
