Fantastic horse with a 'enthusiasm for life' :D video

Actually Rhino the 'fake fall' is something I do regularly (or did!) - teaches the horse to stand still if you come off.
And for the cantering round the field, doesn't everyone do that as a kid?!

ETA: just seen rest of the video - the girl jumping the grey pony seems to have a fairly good position over the fence, poss because she does ride bareback!

too be honest I thought in the first one pony was reacting to being held in a strong bit constantly, poor thing

2nd one was daft, no hats and coming off. typical kids I guess but made me cringe all the same as you say lovely ponies though
 
I have done a fair bit of fall training too, think it is an important skill to master. Personally I wouldn't do it loose in a field with no hat on, but like I stated in my first post, this is my opinion. Had a quick look through some of the other videos too and while the kids are having fun, I'm not so sure the ponies always are.
 
Ive seen that video before and didnt really like them. Yes girls are having fun but I also dont think the ponies always are. And the plastic bags at the end of the whips? dont get it
