Noooo
Ah thatâs sad for Ireland. Gutted.
And the wheels came off that bus. Good for him for retiring. That horse has jumped amazing all week.
Come on Cruz you can do it!
Shush!!!
What a bummer for the French. I love that mare.
Someone mentioned jump off earlier - do they get medals by time or are the clears jumping off?
All 3 clears jump off for medals.
Was the guy who fell off at the water jump today the only person who has fallen off in the show jumping all week? I have not been able to watch all the rounds, but heâs the only one I remember.
If so, that is certainly better than a lot of other Olympics.
Henrik fell off too!
Thatâs right. That was a crazy one!
I can just imagine that conversation for the rest of his life.
âWhich jump did you fall off at in the Olympics?â âWell, actuallyâŠâ
Absolutely mad. Couldnât believe my eyes.
I want to watch the replay to see what was happening. It happened so fast.
Looked like a miscommunication on which direction they were turning. Definitely going back to watch again.
Without watching the replay to confirm it, it looked like the horse made such a big effort over the previous few jumps that the rider was a bit off balance, so when they had a little miscommunication about which way to turn, and the horse ended up with the timer in his path, the rider just could not stick with him. That was crazy.
I mean, it would be crazy enough to see it happen to a kid on a pony jumper, never mind one of the best riders in the world at the Olympics.
Wow, what a start to the jump off!
Christian clear and fast! 38.34

If you are watching on Peacock you can scroll back and watch it. I did between riders after it happened. That way you wonât have to wait for the replay to be ready.
