During one of his live streams, the topic of Hobby Horsing comes up. Always curious, HandOfBlood immediately sets out and starts Googling this term.
What kind of hobby is this? Hobby Horsing is a sport where participants ride hobby horses and overcome various obstacles. Originating from Finland, this trend has spread worldwide. The athletes train intensively and participate in competitions where they showcase their skills in show jumping and dressage.
This is how the streamer reacts to the hobby: HandOfBlood then starts a video where he takes a closer look at this particular hobby. The clips show various girls and women jumping over obstacles with their hobby horses.
The whole thing is accompanied by fast-paced, pulsating music, which HandOfBlood immediately comments on: “Dude, the music here. It hits so hard, man.” Nonetheless, he continues to watch the people jump over the obstacles with impressive precision. “Imagine, you’re really into that,” he says laughing as he observes the jumps.
However, there is then a notable moment of realization: When a young woman, complete with hobby horse, jumps over an obstacle that is just as tall as she is, HandOfBlood’s eyes widen, and he moves closer to the screen to take a better look. He rewinds to the mentioned scene and says: “Okay, that was impressive. Holy shit. Dude, that’s as high as she is.”
Streamer realizes how nerd hobbies look to others
After watching the video for a while, HandOfBlood comes to a moment of realization. He poses a profound question to his chat: “So, what I’m wondering at this moment is, if Tamina watches videos about the Magicon, does that look to her the way it does to me? Because then… uh…” His attempts to elaborate on the thought fail multiple times, which ultimately just makes him laugh.
The community responds with these comments of agreement:

- Keny writes: “When Hänno plays a simulator, it’s like Hobby Horsing”
