They say it’s easy because they have never gone through scrubbing water buckets riding for hours in the scorching heat and hours of endless work and frustration.
I understand people who say it's easy. They only see the perfect, beautiful moments of this sport. They can't see those practice moments, they can't see the hours of sweat, tears and rust... And that's what has to change, not their opinion in the first place, but their point of view. love ya'll
Very true. My mom rode a chestnut gelding and his name was Cessna. One time they were practicing jumps in the arena at her barn and she was knocked off and she knocked the wind out of herself for 4 minutes. But after that, she got back on. Also one time she fell off and hurt her leg, but she also got back on. Even if people say “I can get on a horse and do very good” They don’t know what we go through.
They say it's easy because they are stupid enough to not know how to work in a team. A team of yourself and a four legged creature that can kill you with one possible kick...
My instructor's sister was in hospital for a week due to being kicked, and she still loves (and spoils) her horse, which just shows the power in these horses but the bond between horse and rider.
I have put my life into a mare that is very mean but I love her. She is very Finnicky I felt like she was about to die when I she fell to the ground on the cross tie
my mom says football is "just a bunch of men in tights chasing a ball." I don't watch the super bowl because it's a waste of time when instead I could be riding.
After watching this video and seeing the riders in the background fall and so did their horses, I really don’t want to fall bit I know eventually one day I will, that’s how scary it is, you know that you will fall off your horse and you know your horse will fall, you know you will get injured, those non-equestrians that thinks it is easy never thought they will get injured or even die
I am perfectly fine with falling off of the horse, but when the horse falls too, I am just thinking of all possible injuries and outcomes, it's terrifying
Never give up ! My sister sadly did have to due to jumping and falling head first into a cross country jump . But even after she is Adamant she will ride again so afew weeks later ! … she is back up and jumping those same jumps ! With me again ❤
0:57 ' Because NOBODY understands what an equestrian does...' For starters their is always a bond before you even think of getting on the horse. It's not all dressage , show jumping, cross country ect ... There is grooming them tacking up and even the mucking out
Literally whenever my friends see my horses leg touch a jump, me falling of or my horse spooking they will laugh and say "I could do that with ease, I am basically a professional" ( does one trail ride with me holding the reins 🙄) loved the video though....
All these people who are like..... OoH It's EaSy No SKiLl iNvOlvED They are jealous because we are capable of so much horsey girls!!! I would like to see them last 5 seconds on a horse!
I agree, by one mistake could cost our lives. It's NOT easy. They see what's on TV not the hours and hours of training they don't see that if you get upset the horse does.
for riding horses, you give your horse a trust, heart, you and your LIFE. it's his choice what he will do with you when your on him, it's fucking dangerous but i ALWAYS loved that danger.
I hate it when people say equestrians just sit on the horse and do nothing. And that the horse does all the work. Of course the horse is doing a lot of work, but we are doing a lot too. They don't understand all the mucking out, falls, and getting hurt badly. Sadly, people believe that it is easy, but it's not the truth.
My friend said that horse riding isn’t a sport when he has, rides, and jumps horses himself. Like dude, how do you ride horses but think it’s easy? Are you okay? I think he was just saying it to get my attention though. That’s totally something he would do.
I know I'm commenting late but when non equestrians ride they have it easy all they have to do is sit there as some one else guides them they don't go threw the hourless amount of work we go through they don't feel the pain or scared of getting back ok after being bucked off
I think you’re very right because some of my friends don’t even think that writing is a sport and do you think well they just don’t think about how you can almost done almost die and at one point when I phone off my pony I couldn’t breathe for a minute well more like for a few seconds but still I have two other friends that ride horses and I bet they feel the same
Yesterday I was at the may 2021 horse show and I was doing ground poles and the henovarian I was riding spooked she centered and I had one foot out the stuirup and I almost fell of if I had fell I would be in the hospital she was a big tall horse
nobody will EVER understand the bond between a horse and a human im just 8 and i ride still the first time i went horse back riding i fell off but i got right back on and the bond between me and one of the horses there is understandable nobody will EVER undertand
They says it’s easy because they don’t understand the danger you put yourself in and they say it’s easy because they never cleaned and mucked out everyday for hours
Juist! Zo is 't.... Ik zit ook op paardrijden. Maar ben er nog nooit af gevallen. Ik doe erg mijn best om de pony's GEEN pijn te doen! Soms moet dat van de instructeur. Dat vind ik zielig
Let me say something it’s hard , it’s dangerous it wild, we risk our own lives just for the horse to live it’s not easy at all I ride and I don’t ever JUST SIT THERE I move my spine in a trot . It’s hard I started riding since I was 5 I fell of when I was 7 10 now I will always ride
Horses have a mind of there own they can do anything and kill you right then and there when you least expect it.But horses also care they take you to shows,help you when you are down,take you over jumps and to fancy dances.Have you jumped 7ft with a wild animal have you competed agaist professionals and won have you took the hours of work to be able to do dressage HAVE YOU FELL OFF AND GOT BACK ON? Have you trusted a animal 10x our size with your life.No people that says it easy u have not.
They say it's easy but we just make it look easy and we risk our fucking life to ride and they say we just sit there? I was on a trip with my horse and my stepmom and my aunt i ride a 6 years old horse thats not ridden in in was just going to trott then my horse got spooked and started running with me on her back and i fell of with a very big scrach on my back i could not walk cause it hurt so much but thats not the horses fault people say its the horses fault but its not.....
Foot ball player:hey what sport u do??? Me:horse back riding,jumping and ya know stuff like that! Foot ball player:THATS NOT A SPORT NOR A HOBBIE XD Me:well guess what foot ball is NOT even in the Olympics but guess what is!? HORSE BACK RIDING!!!!
Like “it’s just sittting there” how do we stay on? We balance and use our core muscles. It’s harder that football, basketball, so before u say it’s not a sport u should try it. If it’s in the Olympics I’m pretty sure it’s a sport. So go try it, then tell me it’s not a sport
Nobody knows how much bruses and scars. They say its easy but we get kicked and bitten but we just get up and get back on. Dont they notice that we ride and jump these 600kg beasts and trust them with our lives even though they cant understand us!?!?!
it's easy to say that's easy but it's hard to do it and say it's easy those stupid peole that say that's easy without doing it they have never fall 2 feets meanly you go like 77km/per hour with the risk that another animals on you back step you and kill you
😢 I absolutely hate this video horses is real sport it mean to horses girl around the world it takes a lot of time skilled effort if you train horse properties people just don't understand how much time it takes and teamwork it takes to work with a horse
They say it’s easy because they have never gone through scrubbing water buckets riding for hours in the scorching heat and hours of endless work and frustration.
Tara Collopy yasss 😂
Tara Collopy they have never went through:
Cleaning a grey
After they rolled
At a show
😂😂😂
Very true
But there is still endless cuddles and kisses after all the work ❤️🐴
It’s worse in the cold for me
I understand people who say it's easy.
They only see the perfect, beautiful moments of this sport.
They can't see those practice moments, they can't see the hours of sweat, tears and rust...
And that's what has to change, not their opinion in the first place, but their point of view.
love ya'll
Sometime people have to understand the risk we take every single time we sit in that saddle. Great job on the vid!
Very true. My mom rode a chestnut gelding and his name was Cessna. One time they were practicing jumps in the arena at her barn and she was knocked off and she knocked the wind out of herself for 4 minutes. But after that, she got back on.

Nothing becouse its eazy
@@jonmarmulinis8724 how would you know?
They say it's easy because they are stupid enough to not know how to work in a team. A team of yourself and a four legged creature that can kill you with one possible kick...
Talking to them after this vid be like:
“Don’t you feel.. silly? Don’t you feel.. stupid? Don’t you feel.. a little ashamed?🙃”
Yes
My instructor's sister was in hospital for a week due to being kicked, and she still loves (and spoils) her horse, which just shows the power in these horses but the bond between horse and rider.
I taught it was easy until I got on a horse and realize all the work, power and bond I’m a equestrian now and I now it is a sport NOW
i am crying its so true
If I had to ever give up horses I would be heartbroken they are the most amazing animals
This is what I need to show my parents
#hm #kr mee2
Me2
Same with my friends parents.
I need to show this to my dad and sister. My mom has seen me ride and she knows it's hard work.
Its to ez you do nothing just sit there and relax
It can be very dangerous but also fun! You need to always be prepared for anything to happen!
I have put my life into a mare that is very mean but I love her. She is very Finnicky I felt like she was about to die when I she fell to the ground on the cross tie
If horse riding isn't a sport, football isn't also: "just running after a ball and doing some tricks"
my mom says football is "just a bunch of men in tights chasing a ball." I don't watch the super bowl because it's a waste of time when instead I could be riding.
@@LinktheHylianChampion117 you are right lol
Woah woah don’t be dissing others sports now-
#stopthesetypeofequestrians
They see me ride perfect. But they don't see the tears, sweat from 115 degrees, bruises, scares, practice, dedication,
After watching this video and seeing the riders in the background fall and so did their horses, I really don’t want to fall bit I know eventually one day I will, that’s how scary it is, you know that you will fall off your horse and you know your horse will fall, you know you will get injured, those non-equestrians that thinks it is easy never thought they will get injured or even die
I am perfectly fine with falling off of the horse, but when the horse falls too, I am just thinking of all possible injuries and outcomes, it's terrifying
When people say this isn’t a sport I think in my mind they are just scared of the sport
My friend was scared to just sit on a horse for a walk. She literally started crying 😔
Never give up ! My sister sadly did have to due to jumping and falling head first into a cross country jump . But even after she is Adamant she will ride again so afew weeks later ! … she is back up and jumping those same jumps ! With me again ❤
Couldn’t have said it better absolutely well done
0:57 ' Because NOBODY understands what an equestrian does...'
For starters their is always a bond before you even think of getting on the horse.
It's not all dressage , show jumping, cross country ect ... There is grooming them tacking up and even the mucking out
True🤩i am a horses Girl and i found out how really REALLY hard it is sometimes 🥺😔but we horses Girl's never NEVER Give Up 🙏💪💪🤞 we are Strong 🙏💪🤞
the phrase 'anyone could do it' hurts me the most 😢😢 its hard and they dont understand
Literally whenever my friends see my horses leg touch a jump, me falling of or my horse spooking they will laugh and say "I could do that with ease, I am basically a professional" ( does one trail ride with me holding the reins 🙄) loved the video though....
Random person: All you do in horse riding is sit there
Me: Yeah some people do just sit there
But us equestrians we risk our lives
2:12 I don't think you understand the GRAVITY of the situation lol
We equestrian just do an gravity check once in a while🤣
Amen sister! That is the true of a equestrian that nobody believe
wow that is good
My horse will see me at the gate of the field and he will come up to me he is such a darling ❤️
Am I the only one who laughed at the "they dance in a team"?
no I died and wheezed when the people broke it down HA
Horseback riding isn’t a sport but it is more than a sport it is love
It is a sport
People don't understand how hard it is to ride horses and sacrificing being bucked off it's hard calculator down it's tough
All these people who are like..... OoH It's EaSy No SKiLl iNvOlvED
They are jealous because we are capable of so much horsey girls!!! I would like to see them last 5 seconds on a horse!
lol so true
Any man who says "i am king" is no true king.
I agree, by one mistake could cost our lives. It's NOT easy. They see what's on TV not the hours and hours of training they don't see that if you get upset the horse does.
for riding horses, you give your horse a trust, heart, you and your LIFE. it's his choice what he will do with you when your on him, it's fucking dangerous but i ALWAYS loved that danger.
This is so true coming for an equestrian rider
Wow,so encouraging...Share to all non equestrians.
Yepa
Love the freasians !
1:21 love Alicia burton 😍
True put u have to never give up u are taking risks but don’t let that stop u

They don't know the breaks. They don't know the falls. When I fell off my horse walked and broke my leg and finger. It's not easy
I know I'm commenting late but when non equestrians ride they have it easy all they have to do is sit there as some one else guides them they don't go threw the hourless amount of work we go through they don't feel the pain or scared of getting back ok after being bucked off

You don't need a calculator to figure out how hard it is to ride horses
You should throw the hate stick on people that think there’s no bond
Yesterday I was at the may 2021 horse show and I was doing ground poles and the henovarian I was riding spooked she centered and I had one foot out the stuirup and I almost fell of if I had fell I would be in the hospital she was a big tall horse
0:15 Thats good though, i don't think i need to explain
Beautiful video
Preach it 😫 I broke my arm riding
Gotta show my brother this
nobody will EVER understand the bond between a horse and a human im just 8 and i ride still the first time i went horse back riding i fell off but i got right back on and the bond between me and one of the horses there is understandable nobody will EVER undertand
They says it’s easy because they don’t understand the danger you put yourself in and they say it’s easy because they never cleaned and mucked out everyday for hours
I take "it looks easy" as a complimentn cause it means i ride good. But its still not fun that "its not a sport"
They said it’s easy cause they think the horse does all work but no the riders and the horse are a team
It is a sport for those people oh think it's not and we just sit there well let see if we just sit there what happens nothing
Soo Good 😀
Ik ben net begonnen met paardrijden heb je tips?
People forget horse riding is in the Olympics and the Olympics has sports and they count horse riding a sport so ya
I ride horses too and I have had many people tell me it's not a sport
Wow these was tense…
Juist! Zo is 't.... Ik zit ook op paardrijden. Maar ben er nog nooit af gevallen. Ik doe erg mijn best om de pony's GEEN pijn te doen! Soms moet dat van de instructeur. Dat vind ik zielig
Let me say something it’s hard , it’s dangerous it wild, we risk our own lives just for the horse to live it’s not easy at all I ride and I don’t ever JUST SIT THERE I move my spine in a trot . It’s hard I started riding since I was 5 I fell of when I was 7 10 now I will always ride
YASSSSS prove them wrong!
Omg so true I'm an equetrian
Nobody understands what a equestrian do... Good English! lol
So to said
The equestrian world has a higher risk of dying then motorcycling.
Daphne Bunnyhaven yes it is
Correct I wish people could open their eyes and notice how dangerous it ACTUALLY IS
+1 sub
Horses have a mind of there own they can do anything and kill you right then and there when you least expect it.But horses also care they take you to shows,help you when you are down,take you over jumps and to fancy dances.Have you jumped 7ft with a wild animal have you competed agaist professionals and won have you took the hours of work to be able to do dressage HAVE YOU FELL OFF AND GOT BACK ON? Have you trusted a animal 10x our size with your life.No people that says it easy u have not.
I do riding and it is no joke I have had some close falls and even deaths
People bully me because I ride horses they always say your just sitting on the horse your doing nothing.
you know want they say
you have to fall 7 times to be a real rider :)
They say it's easy but we just make it look easy and we risk our fucking life to ride and they say we just sit there? I was on a trip with my horse and my stepmom and my aunt i ride a 6 years old horse thats not ridden in in was just going to trott then my horse got spooked and started running with me on her back and i fell of with a very big scrach on my back i could not walk cause it hurt so much but thats not the horses fault people say its the horses fault but its not.....
If horseback riding isnt a sport then y is it in the Olympics but football isn't think abt that one for a sec
Foot ball player:hey what sport u do???
Me:horse back riding,jumping and ya know stuff like that!
Foot ball player:THATS NOT A SPORT NOR A HOBBIE XD
Me:well guess what foot ball is NOT even in the Olympics but guess what is!? HORSE BACK RIDING!!!!
Like “it’s just sittting there” how do we stay on? We balance and use our core muscles. It’s harder that football, basketball, so before u say it’s not a sport u should try it. If it’s in the Olympics I’m pretty sure it’s a sport. So go try it, then tell me it’s not a sport
Some of these things are true and some and really true
My godness true!
they say its easy anyone can do it they say we say to them have you felt like you could die by one little mistake their answer is no.
soo true thank u
My sister who rides says : anyone who’s been riding a few days can go ahead and gallop. She is unbelievable and also : I’m not an equestrian
never stop believing you ill win your IN charge not the horse!!
Nobody knows how much bruses and scars. They say its easy but we get kicked and bitten but we just get up and get back on. Dont they notice that we ride and jump these 600kg beasts and trust them with our lives even though they cant understand us!?!?!
😀😀😀😁😁
I love my mare and my sport but to new equestrian people NEVER TAKE THESE ANIMALS FOR GRANTED in one bad moment of a horse that can cost you your life
they say some names are stupid such as my horse's Barbara but they don't know what they do!!
This is true I did lesson so I know
If it was easy everyone would do it. Just like any other sport.
Ppl think that it's easy NO its not we fall we get kicked we get hurt BADLY its NOT EASY!!
True
I mean..ive jumped 1.85 on my horse so. and its true
yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Same
JFC! If you're going to fall off.... LET GO OF THE REINS! Makes me sick to see these poor horses get their mouths abused like this.
Yes it is not easy
it's easy to say that's easy but it's hard to do it and say it's easy
those stupid peole that say that's easy without doing it they have never fall 2 feets meanly you go like 77km/per hour with the risk that another animals on you back step you and kill you
Lol horse riding-it’s called horse back riding-
Horses riding is a sport do you no why I ride horses for 5 years and nou I am telling you it is a sport
😢 I absolutely hate this video horses is real sport it mean to horses girl around the world it takes a lot of time skilled effort if you train horse properties people just don't understand how much time it takes and teamwork it takes to work with a horse
