EQUESTRIAN REACTS TO THE MOST POPULAR EQUESTRIAN TIKTOKS 

It is disgusting to sexualise equestrians you’d never get cancelled for saying that!!

Wow 😮 once again I caught a video that you just posted, I’m so excited! I love all your comments on the TikTok videos. I’ve seen so many of them. Some really disgust me and some like the orphan foal and the mom that adopted him made my heart leap! Thanks Matt please do keep doing more!

Thanks for the good words that sexual comments are NOT appropriate. I totally hate seeing those types of comments.

That poor pony in the first one! I love making tiktoks 😂

the rule for the algorithm is if it is Big John it does well

i loved when he said these girls r fearless! it made me feel so proud to be a girl

That person with the ponies needs to do something before they get hurt. I think after the 1st video she would have done something. Then theres a 2nd one. If our animals fall we make sure to find out why and correct the problem

OMG did anybody else notice the very first video the pony cut his shoulder and was bleeding😢

Absolutely adore Matt’s comment that the sexualization of anyone in sport is disgusting and wrong. ❤️ Couldn’t agree more!

I absolutely agree that nobody should EVER Sexualize people with animals, or even animals in general!!! so disappointed in that crevice of the horse community..

Big John….their sanctuary has so many success stories. They save SO many horses (including Big John) from Auction Kill Pens. A lot of their horses are draft horses used to plow fields (Amish community).

"Chase would be back in Australia." 😂😂😂😂😂 I'm dying! 😂😂😂😂😂

Matt: *in shock* “She didn’t pull her sleeve up!! That upsets me..” best part of the whole video 🤣🤣🤣🙌💯

Big John, when he arrived at the sanctuary, was so abused and neglected, he couldn’t even trot without pain. After lots of care from Alli and the vets, John can actually run now. I also live in Australia and it’s not illegal to ride your horse through a drive through, some stores just won’t serve you. But horses have the same right of way as cars.

You can often see people riding their horses through drive-thrus in small town America. Used to see people picking up Sonic on their horses out in Texas haha.

My old arab had a thing when dogs would charge and attack us. She was scared if her own shadow, but took absolutely not shit from other creatures (arab mares 🙄 am i right) anywhooo, any time a dog would try it, she would let them run at her once without reacting. If they tried it again, with or without me, she was after it. She would chase it until the owners came 🤣 she also chased the soccer players during thier warm up run and if we rode in the bush and some poor bugger on a mountain bike rode anywhere near her, she'd chase them too. She really was a bitchface, and i loved her to death 😄

I loved how triggered you got about the lady’s sleeve getting wet😂😂

Matt I just want to thank you for being such a clean and positive person. You are so unique and you really do stand apart from so many internet wack jobs. Thank you for keeping your channel so positive and enjoyable to watch,

Check out Friesan Horses and the story of orphan Warmblood Rising Star, it's so cute

“Chase would be back in Australia” 🤣☠️🐴 xx

Years ago, when I still had my first horse, I was riding through a park (bridle path) near Rotterdam when my horse got attacked by two Dobermann Pinchers. Both grabbed a front leg of my horse and she went down. I was screaming and yelling at the owner who did nothing. He did tell me I shouldn't be riding there though.. Uhm.. I was on a bridle path and dogs weren't allowed to be off leash there. Some people... Luckily it ended well and because of the very good nature of my horse I didn't end up with a complete traumatized animal. I love dogs, I have three myself, but people like that piss me off big time.

I hate the ones that put the horses in danger. NOT funny or enjoyable!

Big John is so amazing, his an ex Amish work horse that was abused and headed for slaughter he was saved also his 24 yrs old

Also belgian drafts are very comfortable to ride! They dont steer very easily though at least the ones ive ridden. Percherons are like riding horses theyre super athletic for a draft!

That poor pony! Cut himself up. :( She needs to put some footing down on that cement before one of those ponies gets seriously injured. Aside from those clips, they were all a lot of fun to watch. :D Thanks for speaking out against the sexualization of us horse girls.

I always have a mini heart attack whenever I see one of my horses lying down cuz I'm like "OH no he's dead! wait no, just asleep, But I dont see him breathing. Oh, never mind he just stood up. OH MY GOSH is he limping"

i lost it when he said chase would be back in australia 😂😂😂

In America, especially rural areas, its very common for people to be riding their horses through town and go through drive throughs. Technically they are a form of transportation, so drive thrus are usually cool with it. Also a friend of mine had coyotes get in their pasture once and it ran their horse through the fence out onto a back rural road in the middle of the night and it got hit by a truck and killed like the week before their world championship they had qualified for. Roads and horses are no joke.

"Chase would be back in Australia" LOL same

I think that girl on her skates with her horse is from Germany not sure though

Check out Adonisantics, he's a crazy, silly horse. I love big John on the oktacos that you showed. 🐴💜

It happened often when I still lived in Netherlands that dogs came up to us aggressively. Usuallly just turning my horse in the direction of the dog would be enough to scare them off. I rode a very brave Frisian mare and she didnt mind charging the dog if necessary. She was fantastic. Someone at our stables though did get attacked by a dog and her horse took the brunt of it, luckily she stayed on her horse. But the poor horse did need stitches. But stay on your horse if you can, the horse is much stronger than you and you will be safer on its back. A horse can deal with a dog attack, humans can't.

It depends - I’ve been attacked by a dog. I stayed on. My horse leapt in to the air and galloped off while I was telling the owners to get their dog after he couldn’t take anymore. I got really hurt. I wish I had got off and whipped the crap out of the dog if I’m honest and I’ll probably always get off in this situation again.

Ya I don’t get tiktok at all. The videos I try on get nothing. Random edits of my horse just standing there begging for treats or just standing there being a horse, people go crazy over.

The girl rolling blading with her horse was from Germany

RE to the dogs coming up/aggressive towards to your horse: my horse and I were on a ride on the dirt roads around the barn and these two pugs came running up like they were tough sh*t and snarling and snapping at us. My gelding is a weenie okay, so I fully braced for a bolt or at least, a massive spook. Nope! He stood square, looked down at the little midget snapping at his feet and LUNGED forward, almost ripping the reins from my hands in a full on cobra-strike. The *rage* i felt surge through him in that moment was palpable, Not sure who was more shocked, me or the dog. Fortunately no dogs were chomped, nor horse traumatized and the ride ended on a good note and spooking at the mailbox.

There's one "but". If U stay on, and things get bad - U might get badly hurt. Sometimes it's safer to stand by the horse or even let it go, so the horse can run - probably back to the stable while it cools down or right back to the stable... Lots of them will go back. But it's better than getting you hurt and/or your horse hurt - if the dogs are like... U know... aggressive, wanna bite and stuff. If they're just interested and wanna play then yeah... there's probably bigger chance of them getting hurt than U and yer horse.

I totally agree, never get off a horse in a bad situation, it’s to easy for a horse to get away from you.

Lmao same that’s why I don’t have tiktok, literally my Instagram is full of those cringy dudes anyway….. sooo that’s ENOUGHHHH THANK YOUU

Because of the dogs: if you stay on the back of the horse, the horse and the dogs obviously are facing each other and since the horse is afraid and the dogs are also afraid and barking because they dont know how to handle the situation or are unsure about the situation because they e.g. never seen a horse and their owner does not say anything so they are feeling like they need to handle the situation and protect their owner / their pack. Now we have a horse in fear and dogs which are not sure what to do which is really high risk! If you stay on the horse you do not control the situation and let the situation possibly escalate, SO, get down, in front of your horse (it needs to have you as a shield, the leader of the herd would always go in front of the other horses), look the dogs in die eyes and shout smthg to make them go away (a dog would bark to chase them away, shouting imitates barking) if they do not react then go after them with your stick, hit them if necessary. This may seem violent but thats clear communication for the dog. You are resolving the situation like this and taking over the control, since none of the animals can handle this because the horse and the dogs are unsure in the end so the solution is someone who is sure in their behaviour. (of course your horse needs to have clear respect for you so you are safe that it does not injure you after you got off its back) edit: i understand the fear of your horse running away, but I think if your horse runs away with you on it in pure panic OR is bucking you off the risk of accidents is also there, but with you on its back, you will also be in the accident, In my opinion you are safer on the ground.

The Hoof GP he trims cows feet, and he lives in Scotland. Beautiful Country.

So on the dog thing; I’m pretty sure that rider is from the UK where there have been multiple issues/legal issues over dogs vs riders on pulbic paths/trails. If i’m not mistake i think that rider had stated her horse was maybe involved in a dog attack? My late mare when kept at home was around friendly dogs…at 2 boarding places not so much. Due to dismounting once when a dog decided to bite her leg…i fell under her. She then developed the “kill all dogs who attack when mom is on me” policy. I had arguments with dog owners who got mad at me when my mare would defend from an attacking dog.

Years ago I've ridden with my friend through the Drive-in from McDonald's. It was fun, but a weird feeling, too. And they were nice to us... I don't like clips where animals or humans seems to be got hurt.

I looked up Big John. He is 24 in that video. Edit: oh my gosh! The woman who owns him is a rescue ranch!! Oh my heart !! She is truly a blessing on earth.

despite the economic crisis i still think this is a right time to start up an investment

Horses CAN feel emotions. Maybe not to the extent or complexity that humans can but they HAVE EMOTIONS. THey can fear, be sad, angry, depressed, happy, love, joy. IF you just spend a little time with horses you can tell that they each have there own unique personality, some are more clingy than others, some just want to be pet while others (My arab X QH mare) just want you to leave them alone unless you have food, they disserve love and respect

Thank you! It's all so true! I love the clips of every day handling and relationship of horses. People who can't own a horse just want to be a part of the whole experience and learn how it all happens. Thank you for that! Animals are such a bright spot in life and you get that!

Big John and his humans deserve your time and attention. Those girls are trying all they can to preserve and protect the dignity of work horses whose original owners consider them worthless if they can’t provide value to their farms. Please consider highlighting their work.

That silly mare face after she got schooled for almost biting made me cackle out loud! So funny. I always feel guilty laughing at videos where animals fall down because I just don't know how injured they actually might be. :0

So there was one time my horse was laying out in the field and the night before had stormed pretty badly lightning and all and so went out to feed that morning and normally everyone is at the gate by nice ready to eat. And hes flat out lookin like a carcass lmao. I called him i yelled his name he did NOT budge so i walked up to him and pat him on the forehead real soft sayin his name when he got up i said you nearly gave me a freaken heart attack 😂😂😂

Can no longer afford anything to do with horses (was around 6-17 years)… Watching these videos is pure nostalgia for me

I can answer the what does it feel like to ride a horse that big: So when I was in elementary I rode an 18hh Thoroughbred x Percheron gelding. His trot was huge, I couldn’t sit it for life, and his canter was horrifying to sit. I ride a super tiny 13.3 chestnut mare now and she’s completely the opposite. For being a chestnut mare she’s super sweet. Super easy to ride.

I could always punch the people who write sexual comments under (as an example) Eren (?) William's. Watch her videos and I love her. But the comments under her tiktoks are nasty. The same with other equestrians. It's so sad that sometimes you can't tell people that you ride horses bc they will make fun of you or sexualize you. That's something we need to talk more aboyr

7:15 "How do I say this without getting.....cAnCeLeD" I DIED This video is awesome, your so funny ❤

Matt in the beginning:I hate TikTok Matt the rest off the video:*laughing and saying great things about each TikTok

I’ve seen a lot of animal cruelty on these videos so I avoid them -it’s not worth it trying to be cute or funny or get “likes” to cause an animal to be stressed. IMO.

I didn't think it was funny when the little pony fell down. Yes, they are cute but not when they could get hurt by slipping on the concrete. Remember how upset you were when Chase fell down in the field. That woman should fix that area so they won't fall on the concrete. It's dangerous and they could get hurt very badly.

The clip with the horse running down the road with police happened in Secret Harbour Western Australia!! Horse managed to run 20km before walking into a doctors surgery 😅

3:18 when the video actually starts

yeah, it isn't flattering that men are turned on to women riding horses. Never was, never will be. Men used to sit outside our riding club just to watch girls ride. It was disgusting

Here in Texas we never dismount when dogs come at the horses. It’s rare, but at my old farm there were really aggressive dogs down the road. We would carry a long stick, gun or other object just in case we needed to defend our horse or ourselves.

The first video with the pony slipping.... he looks like he lacerated his front left shoulder/ chest. Looks like blood. Just an observation.

I was horrified when the pony fell. There could have been some major concrete rash.

Anything with animal's because there so precious and they do funny stuff.

Our stable is also next to a road and even though it is like a 30 road the stupid non horse people go like 80 so they always scare the horses, and we have to go over that road to get too the grass fields and the drivers get really impatient and wants to drive before the horses so they go at lika 100, which is really scary especially when we walk with the younger children

I wouldve hopped off too, because my mare sometimes Forgets she has me on top of her so when she can see me, she deals with spooky stuff better... Then her support human is back in sight and she's no longer 'alone' ;) mightve been their reasoning too, who knows

I don't like to see some bucking videos bc on many of them you can se the rider being unbalanced and pulling the reins har or keeping their balance in the reins right before the bucking starts so it's clearly the riders fault but the comments and the caption always says something like "my horse is crazy" etc

My male dog I don't need to introduce him to a horse to know what he'd do. He'd loose his head and get kicked. He's an idiot with a lot of drive to chase things. My female won't go near a horse. She's been around them. She looks at them goes nope and wants to find cows.

I believe people thought funny until observant people notice the poor baby was hurt and bleeding. Then everyone kept rewatching so to check that it was hurt. Many of us noticed immediately, very sad.

When I tell you I cried laughing at Matt.He is hallarious.

the videos of dogs harassing horses are so frustrating.. im just waiting for someones dog to get kicked and killed. seems like the only way people learn is if there are extremely severe consequences.

"A carcass. That's one of my favourite words I use it all the time" ok Matt that's kind of concerning 🤣🤣🤣

My mare LOVES putting her head down when I go under her but she doesn’t bite? It’s so weird she just wants to touch me and I find it so funny (other then when I accidentally crouch back up and end up knocking her in the chin..)

I have been enjoying your videos. Just an old trick to add shine to your horses coat, use Linseed meal in the horse feed daily. Small handful. I had a buckskin quarter horse, his coat would really shine. Learned about this from a man who taught me a lot about horses.

I've got a bit of experience on bigger drafts. Of course not as big as that, but I had two horses I rode a lot: A 17.3hh Percheron x Hanovarian - He wasn't the most comfortable, but I think it was because of the warmer blood giving him a more lively gait if you got him moving. He had a wonderful canter and a very agile jump for a heavier set horse. The other was an 18.3hh 3/4 Shire x, his trot has always been super bouncy just because of how big his stride is. His canter on the other hand, especially if you got a good contact and he was really using his hind end was amazingly comfortable. He was strange because he could collect ridculously well on a day when he had plenty of energy. I've found the most comfortable horses are the irish cobs/gypsy vanners, I used to ride a 15.1hh gypsy cob that got gelded late and did a bit of hunting as a stallion. He was as wide as he was tall and it was literally like riding a hairy armchair; he did have a son which was half vanner, half irish draft who also had the same armchair gait. Used to ride them out trekking with no stirrups because it was so hard to feel unseated on them. Speaking of the half and half and dogs. Yeah, dogs are no fun. One of our main routes passes through a farmyard that has a public right of way.... and they never ever used to have the boarder collies watched if they were loose. The older ones were fine and would just watch, but one of their younger ones had a go at that horse. Got a swift kick . On a different note, I've also had a border collie pup (around 9 months) throw herself at full speed at my head when I was riding a spooky mare; the outdoor school was built next to a very old wall that kept the lawn area in place. Both she and myself shat ourselves. I've never ridden that fast in a school before, let alone encouraged it because crazy pup.

The girl riding through the Starbucks driveway lives in Norco, California (also called Horse Town USA). Its super common to see people on horses going through drive-throughs everywhere over here in Norco lol

Drafts can be comfy to ride or super jarring. Pretty much like any other horse. That said the majority of cold bloods i've ridden have felt like riding a couch lol

Your commentary was the best part! I don't have tictok

The orphaned baby with the mare made my heart happy.

In situations like this it really depends on your horse, I know for sure I would be safer on the ground in a situation when my horse starts to freak out (which barely ever happens) and it's because we've done a huge amount of groundwork that he feels safer and much easier to manage and direct with me on the ground. Whereas from the saddle if I start to loose control there is absolutely nothing I can do

Equestrian Reacting To My Little pony Friendship is magic would be fun

The videos of that lady going through the drive thru is in norco, ca. Which is also known as horse city! There are hitch posts all over town and corrals, and the sidewalks are dirt for the horses!

Just wanted to say I appreciate all your videos I enjoy what you put out

“I think sexualised for your sport [regardless of gender] is wrong. But when it comes to how women feel about it I cannot comment because I am not a woman.” Appreciate it being addressed this way, showing support while leaving autonomy for women on the matter. Gj :)

Chase would be back in Australia🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I was so hoping (and slightly nervous) to see you react to my one viral Tiktok (4.8m) horse video 😂

Not on tic toc but you tube. I do not like any sexual things around animal or even people breeding them. I hate girls trying to look or be sexy on a horse also dancing on or around them. I do not like people not thinking about the horse and how it feels. Not fond of people showing how dumb they are by not doing ground work even after a horse has been trained. Loading is a big one. Please learn people. Loading is easy when taught correctly to the horse. No yelling, pulling, butt ropes and whips are not needed. Things I love. Funny things that happen but not staged or any one getting hurt. Any animal,reptile, bird or fish film that is too cute reacting to owner in fun to do or try. How to films on just about anything. For you Matt and Jesse, how to clean tack, how to check transport vehicles before loading a horse. Also for the two of you, raise a new baby horse together and both of you train your own specialty. I for one would watch every film. I think tic toc are short things so maybe to see animal sitting and watch the sunset together with owner. Over looking a valley in the early morning , playing in the rain. Things that bring a smile even when your sad.

7:35 It's so sad, cause she is attractive and rides horses her comments are FULL TO THE BRIM with guys sexualising her without any shame what so ever.... I hate to see it :/

On the dog situation - depends on the situation and the horse. However often dogs don’t recognise you as a person on the horse so getting off and calling them helps a lot for the aggression thing normally they will relax and come and sniff you vs for instance staying on my anxious arab that wants to swing around and run home, just aggravates things.

Big John ❤️ lol Belgians are pretty clumpy going , love them

Being on the horse when it spooks, be it by rabbit(in my case a broken tail bone was the result), dogs, or something else, is exceedingly dangerous. A woman in my area, was on her horse when it spooked. It ran down the driveway, out onto the road, just as a truck went by, killing them both. Had she been able to(I know, we never want to leave our horse riderless and free, in the courtyard, driveway, or anywhere for that matter), she could have at least saved herself. From what I understand she was an experienced rider, but she couldn't get her horse under control(as an experienced rider, there are ways to get your horse refocused, and I don't know if she knew what to do in the situation). As much as we love our animals, we have to look at human lives too.

Eli.Rose is in Australia. I’m pretty sure I remember that galloping horse in Perth. Maybe an escaped racehorse near Ascot? Scary stuff for all concerned! Horse owner and drivers.

Well putting horses through drive thrus are extremely dangerous. Someone can easily press the wrong pedal. All for obnoxious gorse riders who want attention and then they'll blame the driver if their horse gets killed.

i posted a tiktok of my filly neighing to me and then running towards me, it got over 20k likes, ok it was cute but not alot happened in the video, all my other videos got maybe 100 likes ? xD

I hate the rollerskating one, it's so dangerous and irresponsible, especially if it`s in europe. A horse WILL flee, if panicked by anything. And this one even strolls away. Too many cars and other people.

I can watch animal videos all day...

Ok OMG!! Did no one notice the first little horse was bleeding!!!????

matt is the person we all aspire to be

I do horse riding sins i was 4 and i am 10 and whould love my own horse

In the horse video that you liked where the horse is running next to the girl on roller skates. The bottom has a hash tag that says # für dich.. it means for you in German so im assuming this happened in germany...
