I'm a veteran documentary filmmaker, and I filmed just about every sport in my career, but none as difficult as three day eventing, horseback riding, competitive aspect.

You're about to see a clip from the documentary I made on this subject where men and women equally compete in what I thought was the damn scariest sport I've ever seen.

Just just the adrenaline starts playing, but at the same time, I can't get the legs can't turn to jelly.

Grey Goose horses starting to dance a little bit because he knows what's going on.

This is the second day of the Lexington, Kentucky three day competition.

The third day will be a showjumping test, both of medium difficulty.

But this is endurance day, and it's the most difficult.

It's divided into four faces this is phase B.

The Steeplechase, a two mile course with 10 obstacles for the best score.

Before this comes, phasing six miles of roads and tracks.

After this steeplechase, riders will go on to Pacey another nine miles.

In these 1st 3 phases, riders make every effort to conserve their horses strength.

The danger is so great that after phase, see the rules require the horse be given arrest here.

Yeah, you have about 14 minutes till your start.

I'll give you three minutes warning a lot of 50 that's and show officials check the horse to see if he's fit to continue.

They check temperature, pulse, respiration.

Keep the horse moving so that he will not stiffen up or get a chill.

You've got a pretty much do it yourself you've got.

You've got phase A and face being Facey to kind of get you ready.

But the cross country is the meat, and that's where you have to go out of their on fire on fire.

But thinking just before I get on the horse just before the cross country phase itself, I'm watching horse.

I want to see what vibrations till I get off.

What kind of looked as he have in his ideas, he looked as if he has a little hot cold buried in their glowing with fire.

I want to know what hiss spiritually qualities because this is a This event is a crucible, and if it is done properly, it burns away everything that it's false, an unreal about your training, and it reveals what was correct and pure and proper in how you prepared that horse.

It's only about five miles long, but within that five miles there are 25 fixed obstacles, each in its own way extremely difficult and challenging on horse and Rider must maintain an average speed of 21 miles per hour.

They're going to detonate, trusting it's one of the most grueling tests in equestrian sport.

Originally a camel retest he was meant to simulate battlefield conditions might have three or four fences in a row.

When I say the fence, I mean the whole combination ride well is whether the rider can be so accurate through the combination.

The combination will not be easy and whether he can adjust his speed for that particular type of combination and keep the speed and not be able to let his I waver one way or the other, because minute he does, his horse will follow his eye and go off.

You've got to think in the air when the horse leaves the ground.

It sounds like it happens in slow motion.

Jim Warford, Michel Blanc, Torrance Watkins approaches the single here, the horse must jump down into a dark bitch, turned sharply, then jump back out again you've got to find out where the rough fences are, the defenses that have caused trouble.

You may have to change your route toe a couple of jumps because of bad footing or because of the fact that you have read the course long when you walked in.

It's very easy to be overconfident to back off and let your guard off.

You've got to consider and ride each jump there.

Everybody feels it's not gonna happen to them.

You know it's gonna happen eventually, but when we go out there, we don't believe it.

ISS last year having this fortune here where I jumped up on the bank very aggressively, he hooked it and it's just like you hung us up by a meat hook.

And I knew at that moment, you know, it was a good night.

Irene and I sort of sat up fed in the rain because we're fortunately in some ways I never try to bail out.

I don't want the 60 penalty, so I'm gonna ride that guy until he buries me and You know, I was sort of up there, you know, thinking about the brief moment.

And the miracle we showed me was I could survive the wreck.

But then you say I had to put that out of my mind.

Because if you ride with the fear, something's gonna happen.

If you go out there with that in your mind, then you're probably riding for a fall.

These are especially unnerving for the horse want because he can't judge the depth of the water.

You know, it's keeping that horse between you and the ground when things are going bad or when the horse makes a mistake that Karen Stipe's.
