I wonder if the course designers actually tried this out for themselves before deciding that this was the absolute best course they could come up with. Top horses and riders shouldn't find themselves struggling so much over the same obstacle. If the fence in the first video was moved back a stride or two so the horse had time to see it and prepare themselves, fewer incidents would have happened, I think.

Just dumb luck that another horse or rider wasn't killed. It should be exceedingly rare to have serious falls and rotational falls, yet in evening, it's almost expected. I stopped doing 3 day at 16 when my friend's horse was killed at a water jump in front of me. No one should be ok with rising their horse's life with every outing. I have done high-level SJ since my teens, and while accidents still happen, they are few and far between.

It's very clear to see that the course designer didn't put any thought into this and that we should make them try to jump all of these jumps on horse back. For example at 0:33, the horse and rider could've both been killed jumping that big and long ass jump. This is fucking ridiculous.
