My grandfather grew up on a farm in Oklahoma. He watched "The Horse Whisperer" and said that movie did an excellent job portraying how to tame and befriend wild or unruly horses. My grandfather witnessed the real thing many times growing up, and was an excellent animal husband. He became a veterinarian via Cornell University because of his love for animals.
So many comments on here saying he's just a trainer & nothing special. You got all of that from a 2 minute video? Damn, you're clairvoyant. Actually, you don't know squat. Buck is who the trainers go to that can't get a breakthrough. That's how he got the nickname. After gaining trust he seemed to be able to just tell them what to do & they'd do it. He mesmerized world class trainers. Comments are always so much better when the commenter at least knows the subject & can make a real & valid comment.
HORSES understand words better than expected. They really understand humans.They can recognize emotions in your voice and voice- in similar manner to dogs.
Both Monty Roberts and Buck Brannaman deserve the recognition and public accolades for popularizing this gentle way of forming a bond with a horse. They both deserve the credit for showing others just how sensitivity and intelligent horses are. Otherwise, it might be that far too many horses would still be suffering the "old fashioned" sort of screaming and facial beating I saw a horse taking from a trainer when she had made moves that spooked him. What an idiot of a rider trainer.
Many people call Monty Roberts the Horse Whisperer. So now I’m confused. I never heard Monty refer to himself this way though. I could be wrong. I’ve heard other people say he was though. I read Monty’s book when it first came out many many years ago, and he too had a crushing childhood and a brutal father. When he demonstrated he did not have to break a horse, and he could get an untouched horse to willingly accept a saddle and rider in 30-45 minutes without pain, he got death threats and was expunged from the record books. His dad was NOT pleased and punished Monty severely. I wonder if that kind of experience increases empathy with animals . Buck is just amazing. I really liked this video. Thanks for posting.
The movie horse whisperer was based on Tom Dorrance. Tom taught Ray Hunt and Ray taught Buck. It's to bad there was no mention of Tom or Ray because without those two, nobody would know who Buck is.
Exactly....In fact,the Book was based on Tom..Tom was sent the first copy..After Tom Passed, i asked Margaret what Tom thought of the book and her reply was,,"You know he never read it"...LOL...Also,,lets not forget about Bill Dorrance as well..He was Toms Older brother and part of the 3 amigos..
@@danw6014 Who would that be???..Im wondering if i may have known him..I spent some time around Tom, Bill and Ray and even Buck..Mostly with Bill and Ray..I first Met Ray,when i was about 10 years old,,he was working for my Grandfathers Best friend at that time..A man by the name of Elwin Roney..There was another Student of Toms,that learned right along with Ray,at the 25,that most people never heard of..His name was Newt Wright,but ole Newt never really cared for the limelight and was content with being a Hermit..
There are so many people out there today, messing up horses and the horse industry. These are not poodles folks, these are stock animals. I like this trainer a lot and do not think he is a part of it. All he is doing is taking the time to understand the animal, like every good animal trainer does. Believe me, there are times when every trainer may have to, have a "come to Jesus meeting" with some horses. And that, you usually don't or won't see in your clinics or videos! And the reason, a lot of people, after buying all the cds, still have to go to a professional trainer.
Monty Roberts is a hack. He's a showman/salesman and a horse manipulator. Many of you can't tell the difference between circus tricks and real horsemanship. Buck is one of the most famous, of many true horseman...many of which will never be on TV. All of which are more skilled, with a better understanding of horses than Monty Roberts.
Really? Monty Robert's . Monty method is the best . He gets the same results every time he works with a horse . I can't think of a better horseman than Monty . Buck comes a close second. Understanding the body language of a horse is key to making the horse do what you want it to do. Trust is also in play .
this is called getting the horse to trust you iv worked with a horse and I don't think there is such a thing as horse whispering its just getting a horse to trust you
+Naomi Miller they're one and the same but he also uses soft skills, soft-firm movements, and nudges for communicating with the horses. Only the horse can feel it and sense it; you can't see it, feel it, or hear it, hence the "whisper"
I totally agree! I too have been called a horse whisperer and to me there is no such thing, it's all about understanding and using kind methods rather than enforcing and sometimes cruel. Granted even horses have a hierarchy but they wouldn't treat their inferiors like we do. The problem with human understanding is that we're too brutal and violent, we don't understand that kicking out and biting isn't truly an intention to hurt but merely to say "I am bigger and better than you, do not challenge me as I can and will hurt you!" 9/10 they don't actually hurt one another unless it's a battle for that rank, a human on the other hand always inflicts pain.
I have literally done in an old farm in the middle of Britain with my fat little gypsy cob and so have a lot of decent horsepeople this is literally nothing special unless your not a horse person but honestly it’s just speaking to a horse in their language, pressure and release
Yeah, but most horse people dont really understand horses, so they think hes a whisperer or gifted or magic when really hes just doing it the right way.
My dad can whisper and break wild horses, one time he told me what the horse was going to do then me dad did some movements and noises and the horse did what he said it would. It was so cool and my dad is better than this guy just saying. Indigenous to Australia for the win
@@ilovecanines There is no such thing as "Whispering"..It is a term,Made up by Nick Evans to sell a book..You never heard that term,come from the mouths of the men they attribute it too..These men learn Horse behavior and psychology,to communicate with the horse,so the horse can more easily understand and accept,what is being asked of them..
Define Better.....Im sure what your dads method is patterned after is what is called the Jeffery method..And while it is effective,it is not the same as the Dorrance Method,as the Jeffery Method utilizes restraint,where the Dorrance approach,does not..

Love this man. Read his book too! Awesome gift of God!
Buck is a phenomenal roper. Tom Dorrance and Ray Hunt were the greatest horsemen. Buck learned from them and mimics Ray in many ways.
Your training kept me safe up on the mountain with a team of logging horses; thanks Buck.
"You never get tied of that" no truer words spoken.

+Zippi Kit Yes, i quite agree .I worked in the racing industry for too long and what i experienced broke my heart.I am going to see Monty soon.
Proof that horses love and it's about empathy and ee
Excellent thank you, you have real insight
it's called join up.

bryan beshears Lol i also Saw it
Harry Potter uses wizardry to speak to horses as an old guy lol

More than one person can hold the title of horse whisperer. Both Buck and Monty hold that title and rightfully so.
This is the most beautiful thing in the world I love to watch this you are amazing person
Posterity will be shocked about how UNDER-APPRECIATED Dorrance , Hunt and Buck were ?

What a wonderful demonstration and the same is true between humans.
No captions or subtitles. Can you please add the captions?
I wonder if I can use this to make a special video? I keep getting inspired to make a special horse video
Monty Roberts is the original. Buck is a good guy, but Monty is the 1st
and respect, not bossiness and control
Anyone here after minutes mystery
Love the film and the book. The other books are brilliant too.
I thought Monty Roberts was the horse whisperer.Well who is it really?
You should never break a horse. Rather, fix them.
Amazing.

My dad can whisper and break wild horses, one time he told me what the horse was going to do then me dad did some movements and noises and the horse did what he said it would. It was so cool and my dad is better than this guy just saying. Indigenous to Australia for the win
According to this and what others say, breaking a horse and whispering are two totally different things.

Miraculous
Buck , I would rather see you load your gear into an old ford pick-up wearing a pair of 501`s. Maybe fit your name better... I`m just saying.
Hope i can do that on girls :D
I wish people would stop using the term "horse whisperer". They are maybe a animal trainer, and that is it.
Because, he gets positive results when "trainers" can't.
