Spectacular fall in water

[@happydays7143]

Charlie was off his mark immediately and into action to save his beloved - ADORABLE ❤ . Another great vlog 👍🏼

[@marneymcgovern4285]

Such a shame but boy Charlie was on It! His commentary through 48:42 all of the event was already awesome! Such a shame Justine as everything was going so well! Also love everything you vlog about the farm❤️❤️

[@anniecampbell8554]

You can see Brody’s legs scrambling - he was probably saying bad words to himself about messing that up - I agree with you that this was just one of those things and not really anyone’s fault. So glad you both bounced out of it and, even if a little battered, are fine and ready for the next time.

[@thebravingitequestrian]

Charlie’s stunt abandoning you driving the tractor 🤣. But straight into being a hero into action when you fell! Adorable ❤️. Such a shame about the fall - cracking round & SJ til then! Did enjoy the looping replay of the dunking though 😂😂👏🏻

[@VIPEqTHud]

I love watching your journey with Brody. He looks so well. He is jumping out of his skin. I don’t know how you don’t get whiplash. You are brave! I think his dressage will get even better with some long arena tests . I think small arenas are a big ask for such a big horse that can move as well as he does. You do an amazing job. Please film some of your xc walk next time 😊

[@carolinehood106]

Thank you for the laughter been struggling health problems after being in hospital with COVID in May 😊I usually bounce back but it has floored me ❤❤️❤️❤️

[@justinewardeventing]

@@carolinehood106 I’m glad I’ve cheered you up get well soon and take care

[@wendyhawkins1591]

Can I just say I’ve just come out of the hospital after scans 63 yrs old still for 3 wks😂with the flu that I didn’t have before my 4 day stay ,your vlogs just make me smile and make me feel so muchbetter thank you all just makes me smile. Lovely positivity gives me strength.🎉🎉

[@justinewardeventing]

Take care and I hope you feel better soon

[@HayleyPoulson-ok1rl]

Obsessed with the turkeys walk ! Love your vlogs and all the chaos makes me feel less mad with mine 😂 and the riding part is always awesome 🙌🏼

[@katherinestead708]

glad you're both ok! like you said it's like he didn't see it, he's like cantering along and oops I'm canting in the air now.. Love Charlie, cracks me up! what a great support team!

[@AlisaGlenn-l9c]

I love you with your goats and turkeys. You are so upbeat I enjoy your videos! Your dressage test was so impressive and greatly improved. Keep the content coming. And your family are so fun to watch too!

[@justinewardeventing]

Thank you so much!

[@devils.advocate2354]

Glad you’ll ok… shame as you both were rocking the day… next time bring bar of soap in your pocket 👍

[@JanetThorpe-uv2ev]

Love your videos Justine. And I agree, EVERYONE should chat to a turkey 😊

[@malloryalford9808]

Rodney tucked into the shavings had me DYING laughing. 😄 Hope that you and Brody aren't too sore or banged up from that mishap. Love the videos, Justine! Cheers!

[@magzdor]

Aww that was so unlucky. Brody was jumping brilliantly till that step caught him out. You are both amazing and defo next time it will all come together. Love Charlie’s commentary too ❤❤❤

[@clairewerthman2467]

Noooo! Your dressage had improved sooooo much! Good on you for your great attitude.

[@amandasmith171]

Glad you and Brody are both okay 🥰 love Charlie’s commentary and especially your relationship with Rodney 🦃 love your Vlogs Justine ❤ so entertaining xxx

[@JennaPitcherTHX1138]

Hope your leg and Brody's are 100%. He did that thing when you walk off an unexpected step and you think for sec wtf did the ground go. Your turkeys are adorable!

[@andreamurison7225]

I must say, Charlie's commentary during the dressage had me giggling. But it was absolutely heartwarming when he was watching your XC and when you fell off, his "Fuck! She's off!" and sprinting. Glad you and Brodie are ok, and I've enjoyed the peanut gallery of Charlie giving his opinion throughout! Hope you'll be back soon to the next eventing competition and win!

[@happyhackerwithambition]

oops love how absolutely furious you were and how Charlie ran to save you x

[@Whizzywelsh_Eventing]

Haha aw Charlie’s commentary & support just melts me. That fall was so so unlucky ! He was absolutely flying that’s the best I’ve seen him. Just soo so unlucky with that water, he just didn’t see it bless him. Hope you’re okay xx

[@debbieredmon5063]

I love your videos. I would trade a day to be in your boots I would prefer not to fall into the water. Frustrating though because Brodie and you did such a great job and he was jumping beautifully. Hope you and Brodie are feeling better. I love your daughter “stopping, stopping, stopping” You have such a lovey family both animal and people.

[@julzy8157]

Argh you were both going so well. Damn I had a chuckle at the end when you kept replaying the fall 😂

Charlie cracks me up.Justine you and Brody looked brilliant today. Glad everyone is going to be fine.

[@luvmuffin1988]

Another wonderful video!! Justine you and all your critters are so much fun to watch. Brody is progressing nicely. He was flying around the course till the fall. Onward and upward to the next event. 🐎

[@ElinorDavis-g7c]

I just love the way Charlie is telling us all about the roads he used and which was his preferred route whilst Justine waiting to go into the dressage, and then starts talking about the judges car and offering opinions on Citroen cars :) You can spot an Englishman anywhere by the way they all like to talk about what route they prefer to get from a-B and their cars!!!

[@debbiealdis400]

Such a shame about your fall. He is fantastic. There's always another day just very disappointing for you. I love your vlogs as there is so much variety ❤x

[@kathleenschaubhut4174]

Very glad you and Brody were okay after the fall. Brody did well and the fall was unfortunate. Thanks for sharing the adorable and fun animals at your farm.

[@patriciaemms1902]

Such a shame after a great dressage and show jumping, he forgot to take off, bless him,as long as you are both ok you live to fight another day. How many acres do you farm, that's a hell of a tracked combine with huge cutter head, very impressed, is it because you are on wet land? 🎉xx

[@abracadabra9105]

Weeee! I looked like a frog there 😂😂😂😂 Glad you and beautiful Brody are okay. I also never knew you could have a chat with a turkey. Rodney is awesome! Great vlog, thanks Justine 👍👍

[@Acacia52]

Came for the eventing. Stayed for the farm animals 💕

[@kellybiddulph421]

Omg his coat is stunning. Like a bloody mirror. Beautiful 😍😍😍

[@lizgarland2241]

Ah that was amazing and funny and love the turkey goat antics. Go the Ward crew 💚🍀🇮🇪

[@hayleythorley3799]

Wow what a horse he is becoming love your videos ❤

[@marionwigzell7334]

Bad luck Justine. Glad you are both ok though (-: Marion 🎉

[@janl8683]

Ooh Justine, so sorry for you and Brodie and just glad you were both ok, if a little battered, bruised and a bit soggy. Boy did he fly out of that start box though ❤

[@grahamedwards3064]

Sad day but what a horse, as you said he was really pinging over the fences. great future

[@jacquiepitfield9805]

So gutted for you, everything was so brilliant from you and Brodie, he looked mega, You'll just have to come first next time. your knocking on the door. Brilliant video love all the farm antics and i love Rodney. What a sweetie. Love that stretch of coast, beach riding is the best. Great time had by the looks of it.

[@leannecapewell7672]

Holly shit balls !! Slam dunk hun glad your ok it’s never nice but all part and parcel x

[@brianamorrison9871]

Brody is an amazing jumper. Next one will be yours. I totally love your attitude.

[@thepansthisthatandtheother7766]

Another great video. Your Dressage was so good! Sad for you that you hit the drink, but happy you & Brody are OK. Love Jaffa the puddy-tat. Looking forward to your next vlog.

[@susangardner6348]

Brody has a huge jump. Glad you both were okay. Charlie's commentaries are the best. ❤

[@RebeccaHebron-x8f]

If it makes you feel any better I ended up on my arse last weekend too at Frickley, in the 90 though! Such a shame he looks fantastic he just totally misread it didn’t he bless him. One of those days. You chatting away to the turkey was priceless. Gave me a right chuckle and the goats just following you around is hilarious! You are like doctor dolittle 😂 all the best for the next one and hope you’re both not too sore after the tumble

[@justinewardeventing]

Hope your ok too

[@anthonyarchbold3906]

You are simply an inspiration.. You and your family have a class attitude to life's ups & downs.. 😅

[@justinewardeventing]

@@anthonyarchbold3906 thank you

[@susanjoyson1343]

Brilliant riding Justine. You took the fall so well and love your vlog on running the farm and horses, goats and turkeys. Please keep showing these vlogs and if I lived nearer I'd be coming to you for lessons.

[@Loocarrx]

Everything was going so so well! Gutted for you ❤

[@sumik8]

Glad you & Brody are fine. Such a shame as he was doing beautifully til he wasn’t! Love the goat & turkey adventures.

[@janeminwell4395]

What a pity, it was brilliant up until it wasn’t! Dressage was mega, and he jumped so well, just didn’t look down at the step. Loved Charlie’s unique take on things, as always, and your lovely varied vlog. 👏🏻.

[@lizzyrbits1283]

You two were having SUCH a gorgeous day and he didn't see that AT ALL. Poor thing! Glad you're both alright! Live to fight another day!

[@freemanfarms2011]

Dressage was sooo lovely!! Bless his heart re the water he tried! Every time I think Brody jumps to the moon and yet every time I swear he jumps bigger and bigger - he’s so fab!! On to the next one! You’ve got this!!! 🎉❤🦄

[@thevintageeventer]

Such a shame, you were doing so well! Glad both of you are ok. Onwards and upwards 😅

[@law7897]

Great vlog Justine. I’m gutted for you both, but glad you are both okay. Great improvement in the dressage. Hilarious Charlie content as always. Loving the goats being literally everywhere xx

[@mgadkins1659]

Glad your both ok. You doing so well with him. Don’t let this get your down.🤗🤗🤗

[@taylorjanejennings]

Ahhh Justine I love your vlogs and love seeing all the animals and daily life! I had goats growing up and they’re such characters, the turkeys though are adorable which being honest I never expected! Absolutely brilliant🧡

[@kippen64]

Brody looks amazing 😍. Onwards and upwards to future horse trials. Glad that you and Brody survived intact.

[@algeebo]

Omg Justine! He literally just cantered in mid air 😂😂😂😂😂 Never seen anything like it. Bless him! 😂 Hope you’re ok ❤

[@JennaPitcherTHX1138]

Literally! He was focused looking ahead for the next jump.

[@annejarvis7002]

Am so very sorry you both had such a nasty fall. Hopefully, you are both doing ok❤. Bless him, Brody seemed to parachute into the water. You both did incredibly well in the dressage, showjumping, and the cross-country (until the 'incident'). Brody looks absolutely fantastic & his jump is astronomical. Wow !!! I look forward to the next vlog. Have to say your 'menagerie' are all so captivating. The waddling turkeys made me laugh 😂 Justine, you are truly Dr. Doolittle - even turkey talking😅 A shout out to your lovely hubby - he shot off like a rocket when you fell. Best wishes to all🤗

[@maryannelowe155]

Hi justine, just watched your spectacular water fall. Glad your both ok. I've just brought an air jacket due to a fall I had in March. Its very reassuring that the air jacket worked and you managed to get up safely. Your animals are so adorable 😍

[@bernster123]

Your animals are so adorable. It looked like he didn’t get chance/time to clock the water properly. What a shame. Glad you’re both ok.

[@mybluesaway6856]

Awesome video! I love love LOVE your animal menagerie. Your horse is stunning! Sorry for the bad luck at the water. I've done the water jump walk of shame myself so I feel your pain. I'm sure you guys will bounce back next time and clean up. ❤

[@zaktheadventuredog4024]

Great Vlog Justine! Sorry about the fall, Im glad you and Billy Brody are ok. Apart from the fall you both did super well!!! Lots of love

[@kathrynhunter9629]

You are just so down to earth. Love your sense of humour

[@Theagingequestrian5335]

Wow, he really just didn’t see the drop. But he handled it like a cat, and I’m so glad you’re both OK! Otherwise it was such a beautiful round, lovely dressage and SJ.

[@Elaine-v9p]

Unfortunate at the water, 😔but WOW be proud of yourselves 🎉, Cracking Test , and Showjumping round, and those Cross Courses jumps Huge 😳🏇Well done both .💪X

[@hannesofie6071]

Pore Brody, must have been a chock when the ground suddenly disappered and he splashed into water!!! 😅😅 Until then you both looked like "a million dollars" though!!! You'll nail it next time!!! ❤❤ Loved how Charlie swore and run to help!!! Some day I need to come to England and meet you all + the goats, turkeys, horses, hounds...... I love this way to much!!! ❤❤

[@elizabethstanford1448]

As always you don’t disappoint. Love the little bits of everything. We are about the same age and I’m not allowed to ride anymore. So living vicariously through you. Brilliant.

[@kerrybogdanski1027]

Haha Andrew Nickleson would stay on!!! Charlie 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you and your handsome boy are looking bloody great though and at least you both OK after the dunking 😆 #priceless #lovelyfamily 💌

[@bethbailey1552]

Hi Justine. Hope you and Brody are ok. Well done on your composure after the water! Wow, Charlie ran!!! My husband I I love your vlogs. Keep them coming, husband loves seeing the farm, I must say, I rather enjoyed the turkey chat 🤣 onwards and upwards! All the best xxx

[@juliecarmody6773]

9/10 for the spectacular Bog Diving & Charlie boy he’s fast off the mark 😂 What a shame a really lovely dressage test , so glad you are both ok . Onwards & upwards - literally 😂❤

[@susanvuturo4361]

Oh, he was going so beautifully before that water fall! I’m so sorry that happened. But Charlie’s comment about the Michelin man almost made me wet my pants laughing! He is hilarious. And so is your daughter! I love your videos! ❤❤❤😂😂😊😊

[@patsmythe]

Relieved you are both unscathed... both of you champs. Brody looked brilliant out there running - great team support ❤

[@johillwood1975]

Brody is such a stunning horse. A lovely stamp. My type completely (if I still rode horses!!😂). New Forest pony for me now. He literally just didn’t read it as a step did he?! 😮

[@april5666]

So sorry that happened, Justine; what a shame for you as you were nearly through to the end of the round and Brody was going so well. I’m glad you and Brody weren’t badly hurt. I do love all your chats with the turkeys, Burt & Ernie and your beautiful Blood Hounds.

[@christinemartindale8715]

Justine you were going so well then to me it looked like Brody slipped and then you went into the departure lounge. What a real shame but hey your both ok which is the main thing. Next time hey Brody will come first now wouldn’t that be great. Love your vlogs your a lovely and very funny family.tfs🤗🏇🤗

[@humphreymurphy2833]

Tbf, no one could have sat that. Horse and rider safe and sound. Live to fight another day. ❤

[@tammykes359]

Bummer, but thank goodness you and Brody are OK ❤

[@goneriding5644]

What a hell of a course and you were both flying and I am gutted for you. Horses!

[@cathyd3012]

I enjoy watching your daily life on the farm with the beautiful scenery & happy animals. The turkey waddle is a hoot. Cats, hounds, goats, turkeys, horses, crops..exhausting.. You looked so smart in your show gear. Brodie is gorgeous. What a good boy, going so well until he forgot look & step down.

[@MarionFeltham]

Oh bless you Justine, going so well and I agree that Brody (who's looking awesome) just didn't see it. Main thing, you are both ok - only superglue and staples would have kept you on in my opinion. The positives are really positive and the "swim" absolutely happens to everyone. Thank you so much for sharing, always enjoy the farm and of course Charlie and the crew. "F**ck, she's off!" - is my quote of the day. Essex girl here, so swearing is never an issue!! Take care.

[@dboley1950]

I'm so sad you fell . You was going real good. ❤

[@deliaquinn7287]

Very exciting to see a glimpse of the future as the jumps get bigger and Brody showing the capability to go much, much further. Lots of better days ahead...

[@sarahhawkes-bx2uz]

Justine you have got a great sense of humour, just watching it over an over again! It's so hard not to be disappointed as brody was jumping mega upto that point, it's such a shame really, he just never read it properly and just carried on going and never seen the step down, but I'm sure you felt it when you ended up in the drink! Sorry i did laugh a little, but I'm really glad you both come out of it ok as it could of been a different story if you had landed funny or he fell on you! On to the next one and i wish you both so much luck. 🧡🧡🧡

[@lafonevc5663]

Hope youre both recovered and looking forward to the next time :) edited to add love all the behind the scenes from the combine to the beach and the goats!

[@blueroanie]

Oh Justine u never disappoint. 😂😂❤❤ Great go. It just ended a bit short. U n Brody we’re knocking it out too. Glad y’all r okay. Love that u could laugh about it n not be critical on Brody. He didn’t do it on purpose n u appreciated that. That’s a huge credit to u. ❤❤ 100 percent respect to u. ❤❤

[@justinewardeventing]

Thank you

[@annaabney1420]

He was so lovely. What a bummer about the fall. He really did just not see the drop, did he? So glad you are both safe.

[@staceyarbelo4255]

Glad you are both OK! You both looked great, I'm sure it makes you hungry for the next event.

[@ithulah]

The expression on your face as he just cantered into midair... "Oh @#$* this isn't going to end well...!". Classic. So weird that he did that. Could he have had a fly get into his eye or something, to mess up his vision just before the jump? So random after he'd been going so well. These things happen with horses tho. I am not looking forward to menopause. I'm in my 40s but I know it'll be knocking soon. Get whatever support, mental and physical, you need. It's a massive transition for our bodies, hormones influence almost everything. At least you have an entire farmyard of animals who adore you. Goat dressage will be the new thing. 😄❤

[@suzannechance5876]

I thought i saw him slip.....glad you both ok! What a shame, he was doing so well!!

[@fayeconway5801]

I Watched your last vlog last Saturday and you’d mentioned that you were at Solihull on Sunday, we live fairly local so popped along to watch, you both looked fab! I was so gutted for you but that wasn’t survivable! 😂 my background is racing and so often the visually minimal looking mistakes are the ones that eject the jockeys! For your fall there’s no muscle memory for that kind of mistake 😂, you were sitting back it was the nature of the fall he fell off the step to the right then when he pinged back up it catapulted you out the left side because he threw all his body weight in that direction so as not go completely submerged! Glad you’re both ok! Also loved this vlog, I enjoy all the natural sounds when your filming round the farm, the animals, machinery and nature sounds ect I find it very relaxing! ☺️ xxx

[@justinewardeventing]

Thank you x

[@alisonwilks302]

❤️🤣❤️🤣❤️🤣❤️🤣❤️🤣❤️🤣❤️🤣 gorgeous pony , gorgeous family , gorgeous animals ! It didn’t end up as desired but you both did a wonderful job - be proud 😍😍😍😍😍

[@biggothepiggo]

Great vlog! My favourite; farm scenes and an event! Classic eventing heartbreak though; dressage breakthrough! Beautiful showjumping and the majority of a stunning cross country round coming to an end due to bad luck. That's how it looked to me. So happy and relieved that you are both okay and despite the setback, everything points to every reason to be optimistic.

[@christinedavies336]

😮 Oh! Ouch! 😮 Heal well both of you. Charlie's a great hubby. ❤ xOx

[@clarem4402]

Bless him, he just did not see that water. It was a pretty similar colour to the grass and mud and very still! Hope you’re both OK!

[@ladymare11]

Charlie flew to rescue you from the water bless him, such a shame as you were going so well. Lovely dressage test and Brody flew round the showjumping. Hope your both ok 💕

[@tracymckerchar9037]

Love the video! Wow they were huge jumps!! And he flew over them!!! Great job sad they you didn’t finish but you did awesome!

[@deeellingham5220]

Brilliant 😅 Your such an inspiration can't wait for the next one 😊

[@vixiepixie1000]

So glad you are both ok. I think he locked on to the one infront and didn’t see the step? Jim is coming in so much too 😊 xxx

[@ole9186]

It sure wasn't the outcome of the stellar day that you wanted but what a great outcome! Brody looked fantastic BTW. Very appropriate use of the F Bomb. Hope you two weren't too banged up. Thanks for showing what Charlie got for his field meal.😆 Hope he gets an extra treat for excellent first responder service. Please keep showing all the dogs, turkeys, goats, farming stuff in your vlog. Those of us that are lucky to have had those moments eat it up along with everyone else. That is what is really happening day to day and such a huge part of barn and true country life. Hope the rest of harvest goes/went well. Can't wait to see hunt season.

[@kudapooda9993]

Hi all ,i love watching your journey, as it's so good to see all,the animal's around the yard . Your show jumping training looked so good. Charley IS such an amazing help to you . That numner looks so nice , Justine I love charley's comertating . 👍👍👍 I'd love to see charley have a go . Hopefully you are ok ,AND recovering o.k. . He miss read the jump . Take care all and all the best for your next event. 😄😄😄😄👍👍👍👍

[@diannemusson7988]

Well done, really enjoyed the vlog, love seeing the beautiful hounds, so grateful you and the brilliant brody are okay x

[@jjrides]

Aw, that's such an unlucky thing! Those plain steps can be difficult to read with the right lighting, at least he was flying the rest, the confidence was definitely there, I'm sure you both will bounce back!
