does EVERYTHING on here have to turn into a debate about hats??? Can't we all just appreciate a bit of genuine horsemanship for once??

I knew which vid it was going to be before I opened the thread. I found this a few days ago and googled the guy. He is a trainer, has a site which I bookmarked to read when I have more time. His method seems to be based on biomechanics - so difficult to get head around. Here's the link http://www.scienceofmotion.com/documents/thorse_training_philosophy.html
Did anyone else misinterpret the title and come here expecting an impressive horse or human bottom?
No?
Just me then....
The man's an idiot for not wearing a hat. Doesn't make him brave or clever.
Quite! The man deserves a Légion d'Honneur for that alone.It [...] doesn't detract from the fact that he had managed to rehabilitate a horse who was thoroughly disillusioned with the human race.

Have watched that horse before on Youtube rearing etc and in the notes said some thing along the lines of discovered his rearing was due to back complaint... Am searching through and trying to find link.
Because they value their skulls?
On the ground he sticks to that huge horse's shoulder like a flea. Must be the safest place to stand. And keeps the horse's head turned - presumably making it harder for him to rear or kick.
Wow how he managed to stay on is beyond me. I did think him calm and quiet and obviously very experienced and talented but noticed a stick in his other hand when he was leading and wondered why he had it? Anyone know?
