Mutual respect for from the Mongolians for accepting the Australians who came with honoring these beautiful peoples in joining them in a great tradition. Thank you for sharing!

[@belleblanch5374]

susan warner Mongolians do not discriminate people of any race, religion, ethnicity or background. I can't say the same about Americans and Australians.

[@mrohwellthatslife433]

@@belleblanch5374 what is that supposed to mean, i know that the Americans and Australians weren't that greate people few centuries ago, but now they are the most tolerant and respectfull bunch. It's not like Mongolians were always this kind.

I'm crying watching this video. How he was brave and adorable. Thank you traveling for our country.

[@microangels]

At first I thought Mongolian people are intimidating and scary, after watching this now they seem so warm and affectionate, with good sense of humor. They welcomed the foreign boy and treated him as if he was their own son. That’s real nomad hospitality, respect ❤️🇲🇳

[@annabearly]

i hope Angus will still keep in touch with the family because the friendship he built with the man is beautiful

[@TheStefinski]

What a beautiful story to tell. It’s amazing to me how passionate a kid be and how supportive is parents are. His mom must have been so scared for him. Also the Mongolians welcoming him if they could have easily laughed it off. Great documentary!

[@dalaivan2657]

Angus is brave and good fighter. Even his hand is broken, he did it. Amazing documentary.

[@aurielle7766]

These horses are stunning

What a beautiful country, i can imagine how amazing would it be to live in such a stunning place.

[@muugiisan548]

Wow great, first ever foreigner raced with Mongolians. Glad to find and watched this documentary. And really proud of him and wishing best.

[@MJ-md8pm]

This was so beautiful to see. Throughout the video I had a smile on my lips and cried at the end because I felt proud of him. To see a child meet his dreams and never gave up. Such fighter and what nice memories he will always carry throughout his life. ❤️🐴👦🏻

[@b.boldnasan9592]

This kid is incredible. Good for him. I bet that when he grows up he will become a great and strong men.

[@carrolldunham2783]

This made me cry...with joy and memory and nostalgia. What a beautiful story and beautiful family. Come join us down in the Khangai mountains for a thunder hoof...we share much in common--both my boys Liam and Galen raced in the local Nadams until they had to retire with size. They now help us run Lapis Sky Camp with our nomad partners and we lead National Geographic horse trips. Give us a shout if Angus and his brother ever want to come and help us lead trips!

[@baconsans431]

You should definitely make a documentary too about your life in Mongolia. Would be very interesting to see!

[@rhonapattison5739]

Wonder whats Angus's story now. Amazing kid, Amazing Mongolians. Fantanstic doccumentary

[@teyataom]

Fantastic Mongolia and people, what a true life with the nature

[@nanyanghuayi]

Couldn't stop laughing when Angus' mom said that he's shouting like a banshee. Indeed, he's screaming in his last race instead of singing. His horse must have been motivated by fright. LOL...

[@mglshows8616]

It freaked out and galloped faster

What an inspiring story, Angus or little Chinggis became more than a little bit Mongol, he became Mongol, our family.

Such a lovely boy and mother. 🥰😍

[@marcusnl66]

The kid has attitude ...

[@piercebataa3250]

Lodewijck every kid does😂

[@TemuulTK]

Wow what an incredible film. Thank you for making and positing it. I am a Mongolian now living in the UK and this completely reminded me of my childhood. 1 of all I want to congratulate Chingis for making his dreams come true. This is a huge accomplishment as the competition horses are wild, unpredictable and very hard to control. I actually can not believe he finished the race. Huge accomplishment. And the parents for been supporting and encouraging him, not babying the boy. Reminded me of Mongolian parent. He has definitely become quite a Mongolian and this experience would definitely gave strength to go on and be an accomplished man. And how cute are the Mongol babies. Thank you again. 💕

[@melissanorris7965]

Thankyou sooo very much for sharing your beautiful story ! What a little trooper ! I just adored his passion and admired at how drivin he was at such a young age. I could feel your emotions as a mother and being in awe of your child. Loved the touch of the horse head fiddle during the races too ❤️

proud of Angus

[@ayaa382009]

Sizewise, Agnus's brother fits perfectly. Agnus is a bit too big for racing with that horse for a long distance. I would be worried about both Agnus and the horse. The horse owner/trainer seems to be fine with it so good for him. The attitude (some mentioned) is coming from the urgency which is understandable; after all, he knew that it was his last chance. Other mongolian kids have more relaxed attitude. All in all, he did very well :)

[@surench862]

Don't worry guys. He sure has attitude and guts. Cause horses are such wonderful and amazing creatures. I think the kid usually with this age often try to hide own feelings. We mongolians usually being like this 😉

[@tonino5113]

you must be modest and grateful

[@Didi..d]

Great history woow amazing

[@sammuluswammulusiii5272]

To be honest i think Angus and I hope next Nadaam you'll come to celebrate with us

[@Velgaxxx]

I so hope that when he's grown up, he won't participate in those very cruel horse racings in Australia where the horse riders severely beat their horses and where horses breakk their necks and legs and spines. Other than that it's a great story and movie and and a life anventure he will always keep in his heart.

[@karenrobertson3379]

The horse racing here is the same as any other country

[@Velgaxxx]

which means cruel.

[@belleblanch5374]

TheVelgaxxx Mongolians do not like people who abuse animals specially horses.

Im sure he isn'r

Beautiful documentary, loved it. Yet, only possible when you have a father like David Paradice. You wouldn't think it being dressed so casually and the down to earth demeanor of the family, Yet his net worth is $613 million, and his Paradice Investment Management Group $17 Billion.

If my parents had enough money back in the 70s, my sister and I would have loved to make such a trip. We rode ponies then and my sister still has some of her own. Sadly, we don't talk anymore, but I love to remember the times we tuned in on each other. The last Time we rode together was in 1996 in ireland.😥😥

❤Mundag huu bnaa.Mongol huu bolood jawlaadaa.❤

[@HeshigtenMongol]

This kid got too much attitude. The Mongol family welcomed him with warm heart and gave them the best respect but he is trying to think himself better over others. Nothing wrong with him, it has to do with how the parents educate him. I hope he is a humble person now.

[@nkululekozondi188]

Such a wonderful community. ...too bad this Angus kid is a bloody spoilt brat........he shows no appreciation what so ever😧

[@baagiisukhbaatar8011]

Sain kino boljee Angus iin IG yu ym boloo?

[@angelinamongol8868]

We as locals are very welcoming and doing our best to please our guests. But it would have been better not to forget that the local boy is also a child and it is very normal that he didn't want to give his horse to someone who just showed up. Even if the man says the guests can have it, you guys should think about how the local boy feels bad and need to reject it.

[@mongolianskater6281]

I am from mongolia

[@tanjak72]

The last sentence really pume me off. I thought he would want to learn more about the culture and the horses of the mongolian people. But it seems to be just a check in a box out of other goals he set. Sad, really.
