What a giving horse. And thanks to what can be a cruel life for horses, after he was sold things went downhill. Rest in paradise, Toto. Free of humans.
Dir decksack hätte ich schon lang die Sporen abgenommen ich hab ein Kurs besucht bei Martin schaudt und der war super auch wenn meine Stute leider verstorben ist aber Martin schaut hat mir geholfen
Guys don't be sad. Totlias Of course will keep being reborn until his home will be the best it ever has been! R.I.P. Totlias. You were never supposed to be a toy. Neither a machine. The people that did this to you are clearly not going in heaven. They ruined a life. And hurt one. We love Totlias forever. People that see this comment, Like if you agree. Please DON'T ever treat any animal like this. As it's heart breaking to watch. We will miss Totlias. This is the biggest comment I've made for him. RIP. 💔💔💔💔💔💔 One of the worst deaths of a horse. Rest in peace. Don't be annoyed of this comment bc its long. This IS for Totlias And IT WILL ALWAYS BE FOR TOTLIAS PEOPLE. ONLY KINDEST ONES STAND UP FOR HIM. Hell will be crowded sadly.
I'm no expert with dressage or horses - just trying to learn a little more. But why are people so critical of Totilas' extended trot ? The reach and lift seem stunning. I realize this horse died some while back, but trying to understand the issue. There appears to be lots of controversy on Totilas.
I would guess it's mostly because of the back legs not supporting the front. He does seem very strong butan important aspect is missing in my opinion. Hope this helps
No comments about how drenched Toto is before even entering? I feel (my opinion) some questionable methods were employed to get that high knee action as it often is in saddleseat. It is way too exaggerated even for warmbloods. Rollkur, hollow backed, neck practically broken (I'd love to see x-rays and sonograms of soft tissue), ridden almost to death. I'm ashamed of what this sport has become, it's so far from classical, like Dr. Reiner Klimke that actually builds them up. This is borderline saddleseat riding front to back, high knees, hollow back, hind end disengaged. Kissing spines and suspensory injuries result as well, this is TRAGIC. Thanks, FEI for consistently rewarding this heinous display of abuse.
CRUEL....ROllKur...poor Tortillas. Serious dressage trainers are appalled by what this horse went through. Ended up in a 10 x 10 stall and only let out to give sperm. SO sad for this boy. His performances looked forced and he faded away due to so many injuries. His perfomances are historical but induced by cruel methods
Hello Ae, you are perfectly right. Gal is not a great rider and his methods to train horses are debatable! I saw him once behind the scenes in Rotterdam some years ago and it was simply shocking. But please consider that this video is not intended to promote Gal as a rider, it is meant to be a piece of art - like a painting. It is meant to be a tribute to a great horse that became a tragic legend! These six minutes simply were epic detached from everything what happened before and after...they will help to keep this legend alive...
@@TotilasFan I appreciate you responding and I do see your point of view (you have a great name tlby the way). I also love Totilas. He became a sort of symbol of dressage. This horse was magnificent. And could be even better if paired with someone who is not using so much force/borderline violence for training (like you mentioned). I guess he may have not become such a legend then. In this performance I am hypnotised by the horse. And the name you called him, a tragic legend, definitely fits here. I'm just so sad when people say that Totilas looked so happy. That him and Gal were the greatest pair ever. That's what made me so bitter. Totilas made a beautiful piece of art indeed. But it's shameless how much this art had to suffer to become the most famous dressage horse of the recent years Edit: but I am happy that he will be remebered. I would just hope that his story would change the sport but oh well
I'm sorry but this is not a brilliant performance at all. The horses that come from him are all stressed and very hard on contact. You can litterally see it in this performance. The movement is erratic, back legs are not supporting the front. His neck is unnaturally rolled up. It's like an obsession, to be better, stronger etc. What is the value of this horses strenght and talent when the communication between him and the rider is so stiff. In my opinion its a disaster that he is scored so high almost every time.
Not classical dressage. Poor Totilas. How was he trained? Look up Dutch Harness Horses. Lots of action through „stretchies“ - no true forward scope. Screwed up gaits. = #DHH #KWPN #saddlebred #biglick #trot #LDR #stretchies #EdwardGal #rollkur #abuse #hyperflexion
I saw Toto's performance live and got goosebumps. Thks for all the joy you gave us. I hope you enjoyed your Life. Farewell Toto ❤
You are so ignorant. This horse was extremely abused. By Edward Gal. How can people be so incredibly dumb like you?
There will no one be like him. He and Edward Gal were a great team. And the music....
Yes it is Charlotte Fey. Same program.
@@nic0847the same extreme animal abusing bullshit
Rest in Power Totilas
Breathtaking, stunning. Greatest dressage team of all time.
They are amazing. The horse is perfect. I enjoyed this so much. I mean it was so graceful and on point.
Hard animal abusing bullshit
This horse made me cry especially when I think of all the hard and very difficult trainings he went through before coming to this level.
What he endured after he was sold was heartbreaking. Damn the profiteering horse industry that sacrifices so many animals.
What a giving horse.
And thanks to what can be a cruel life for horses, after he was sold things went downhill.
Rest in paradise, Toto. Free of humans.
The best rider and the best horse ever inklusive Vallegro!
Hardest animal abuser for incompetent girlies like you
My hard is Brocken TOTILAS ist dead ❤️😭😓 Run free my boy
Breathtaking!
Very nice animal clean movement nice size🎉🎉🗝️🐎🥰
This is beautiful discipline I loved
This is serious animal abusing bullshit

Spurs really! That is abuse poor magnificent horse 🐴 in peace now god bless rip 🙏

My Arab was abused by a cruel trainer also but I loved him so much he over came his fears
Spurs with every stride. When are they going to be bannned?
Also forgot to mention, Edward was accused of animal abuse when blood was found on his horse. He also trains them using Rollkur still.

I disagree.

rollkur for the poor horse - horrible
Just Classical Dressage
That is not classical
Not classical dressage. Poor Totilas.

first, how do you know that he is rollkur trained ? Like you're they expert. Second, nobody gives a fuck what you think
@tanjexlovex nice to meet you, too.
If nobody gave an F, then you would not be commenting.
Yotam_ and_Anna Yep, poor horse he had a miserable life, tortured by humans until the end. At least he is free now.
Poor horse
