Go rabbit! You can do it! I used to go out with a girl eligible for this competition. Rintrah 08:49, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why "show jumping"?

The links called "show jumping" link to webpages that say "rabbit hopping". For instance the Swedish site is kaninhopping, directly translated to "rabbit hopping". "Show jumping" is not the terminology used. Also dressage is a completely different discipline for horses and does not relate to rabbit hopping or rabbit agility at all. I made corrections before and they were undone. How can this be corrected? Gyldwiz (talk) 02:13, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Where is dressage mentioned in the article? I can't see it. ^OohBunnies!Leave a message :) 02:26, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bullshit Alert

"At the 2010 Polynesian Rabbit Olympics, the first flight by a rabbit was recorded.[1] 'Stripey Joe Marlowe' successfully jumped aboard a custom built microlight and landed the aircraft after a five minute flight. Previous attempts at this stunt have ended in disaster; at the 2006 event two rabbits, McCoy Chipper and Twitchie, died after falling 12m and 17m respectively. Since Stripey Joe Marlowe's success, more people are taking the sport of rabbit-flying seriously."

Yeah, that totally happened. The link given goes to a presumably Polynesian website page that appears to show and refer to a rabbit show from 2012 and has no pictures of the events in question (when you'd think there would be some). Additionally, I can find no mention via Google of a show-jumping event referred to by any such name, nor the names of the supposed lagomorphic aeronauts associated with the extremely dubious prospect of rabbit-directed flight at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.167.198.131 (talk) 20:55, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
