The Marwari Horse, Pride of India

[@slipper342]

Even as an Indian I didn't really know much about these horses, glad that I know now!

[@AbsurdandFantastical]

They are so amazing! I'm glad the video meant something to you ^_^ Do you see a lot of them in India?

[@slipper342]

They aren't very common in the eastern parts of the country where I live, but when I visited the northern parts they were fairly common and a couple of em could be seen in Fairs and community events.

[@AbsurdandFantastical]

@@slipper342 Wow! Outside of India they're practically non-existent. So lucky you! :D

[@akashdeepsingh3041]

This was beautiful. Thankyou for making this. Love from India. ❤

[@AbsurdandFantastical]

Wow! Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed this!

[@girlfriday1299]

Thank you for sharing the history of these wonderful horses! I only learned about them recently, and was impressed to see their fast gait, "speed-racking" as they call it here in the U.S. May the Marwari continue to thrive and prosper!

[@MajidKhan-bd1to]

Good video, but this is to inform that Marwaris were not actually developed by the Rathore rather the very fine Marwaris were brought into the ranks as the Rajputs had to quickly change from a conventional army to a cavalry based army as the situation demanded swift and highly mobile warfare, and that’s how the prominence arose, the same concept was adopted even by the Marathas although the Marathas preferred lighter breeds such as the Sindhis and the Kathiawaris owing to the hilly terrain of the Deccan. Marwaris have no connection to the Arabs and is a separate breed more ancient than any other oriental breeds, the story of shipwreck and Arab horses swimming ashore has no historic and literary evidence and is a lie propagated to promote the Aryan Invasion Theory by the English.

[@AbsurdandFantastical]

Thank you for this amazing comment! One can only draw conclusions from what you learn, so I an little sad I didn't spot this during my research. But thank you so much! It's always a treat to learn something new :D

[@MajidKhan-bd1to]

@@AbsurdandFantastical there is very little research done on these horses, and more unfortunate is the fact that Indians absolutely have no concern about this breed and hence have not created any documentary about the Marwaris, Kathiawaris and Sindhi. These horses if researched upon well will completely change the narrative on horses. I’m very sure even the Arabs would owe their lineage to Indian breeds, as nowhere else in the world have horses been so thoroughly been bred as it has been here in India, most of the ancient knowledge has been lost although it still exists in Indian folklore.

Well said Majid!

[@stormyzvox2185]

do you know where the were brought in from? As in, is it from India or outside india?

[@Pink7omy]

Oh my goodness these horses of India are so beautiful… I don’t understand people’s greed to kill off these loyal horses? They are the only ones that have these unique ears that makes them look even more beautiful than the Arabian horse.

[@g____-590]

Bit of correction contradictory to what she said before how horses were considered above royalty. horses were never killed actually the use of them was decreased as they are very high maintenance.

[@AbsurdandFantastical]

This little vid was only supposed to be an article on the Absurd and Fantastical website, but seeing as my Mongolian Horse vid did so well, I decided to rather give it a go as a vid as well. I hope you all enjoy, and thanks for watching! Be sure to check out the written article, if your prefer to read: www.absurdandfantastical.com/marwarihorse

[@azubliss]

Very beautiful horse, even though I'm not Indian, it makes me proud whenever I see a Marwari horse in a Bollywood movie. I say this considering the history and how the British at the time involved this breed with the racism issue. Glad this breed did not die out. Thanks for this informative video!

[@rahulSingh-nl2el]

Even I am from India, the day is today I know marwadi horse bcz of u.

[@AbsurdandFantastical]

I'm glad this video meant something to you! It's like Here in South African we have the Vlaamperd, and not a lot of people know about them. They are just beautiful horses that look a little like a slick fresian. They are so rare :D

Also, this is amazing, first the mongol breed horse now India, this is AMAZING!!!!! And it's a huge surprise, looks like the Paso fino isn't the only breed of horse that can dance.

[@AbsurdandFantastical]

Not only Marwari Horses but also Kathiawari, Shindhi Horses are also Pride of India as Kathiawari is the oldest breed of India and It's Origin is India but all people keeps promoting Marwari Horses not the others which injustice to other Indian Breeds.

[@nityovlogs]

Marwari is the crown jewel, others come second!

[@Ikerot]

Wow, I didn't know about these horses. Was really interesting to hear about their grace and downfall (and I'm also happy that an organization was created in 1990 for them). Also, I noticed the audio cutting out a lot earlier than it should be towards the later half. Or in 9:27's case, the audio was cut too late and there's a short "ha" before the next sentence. 🤔

Just small suggestion your showing story of Rajasthan(marwar is big part ) and showing Punjabis . Not fair. Acknowledging Dunload and Jodhpur king are real deal. Not those Punjabis.

[@AbsurdandFantastical]

Hi! Thank you so much! Could you perhaps tell me more? I'd love to hear more about Dunload and Jodphur. The focus of the vid was mostly the history of the breed, so the final parts were more extra bits, so I do acknowledge I probably could have said more. I know Dunload did so much for the breed :)

[@Chen-gl9hm]

@@AbsurdandFantastical I appreciate your replay. West Rajasthan is real hub of Marwari horses. As you have rightly said Dunload and King of Jodhpur has done great work in saving this breed. But interior of Western Rajasthan farmers are one who kept these horses in difficult times in past. Now off course in other states like Punjab ,Gujrat, Maharashtra many good breeder are there. But their primary source of Stoke is mostly from western Rajasthan interior village farmers. Thank you.

[@gigachad_6862]

Best Marwari nukras r in Punjab .... We have selectively bread these horses to have best Marwari horses ,nukras. Our punjabi Marwari horses r larger and more beautiful. Most expensive, best Marwari nukras horses r in Punjab not in Rajasthan

[@gravewalker34]

Its funny that i see so many parallels of horse bring brought to india and native americans by outsiders. Meanwhile Vedas mention that Indian horse has 17 sets of ribs or 34 which is a southern equids and northern horses have 36 ribs. They were rare animals that y not slaughtered like Kazakhstan and other people did for meat.

[@GreaterAfghanistanMovement]

These horses are descendant of Afghan horses.

[@AbsurdandFantastical]

Really? That's so cool! Do you have any more information? I'd love to hear it :D!

[@GreaterAfghanistanMovement]

@bakasurkumbhkarna2895 India was part of numerous Afghan empires, we ruled you that's why you Hindoos worship us.

[@yp3776]

Besides Lodi there was no other Afghan rulers in india. The rulers of india were mainly Persianised Turks. Also Afghanistan never even existed it’s a fake country you guys were always part of Iran historically and culturally. Pathans have some connections with india due to proximity of locations.

[@GreaterAfghanistanMovement]

@@yp3776 Lol cope. Ghorids, Lodhis, Suris, Abdalis and many other small kingdoms like the Rohillas were Pashtuns and ruled India. "Turks" followed Pashtun & Persian culture, basically Iranic because the original Turko-Mongol culture was weak and didn't have moral ethics. Iran didn't exist, its a fake country created by the puppet Shah in 1931 and Pathans aren't even Pashtuns, rather mixed Indians who claim Afghan ancestry.

[@yp3776]

⁠@@GreaterAfghanistanMovementyour making Afghanistan seem bigger then it ever was. Afghanistan was ruled by Persians for most of its history, with Kabul and Pashtun parts ruled by Mughals. it was only with abdali who was a soldier under Persian king Nader shah that a ‘Afghan’ state was formed. The most significant empires in india were the Delhi sultanate and Mughals and they were turko Mongols who later became Hindustani. Afghanis or Pashtuns are not big rulers like you claim they are the credits goes to Turks not you as they ruled over you guys too. Also Sikhs conquered your land that’s why khyber pass is in pakistans hands today after the British raj and they kicked you all out too.
