Record Jumping
In horse riding jumps can vary from different heights. the lowest height is know as pole on the ground and the highest jump that has been made was 2.47m.
This was made clear by a horse named Huaso ex-Faithful. He was ridden by Capt. Alberto Larraguibel Morales and made record on the 5 February 1949.

This record still stays unbeaten after 66 years. In order to be beat the world record, 2.49 m must be cleared. However because only 20-30 people watched this record being made it wasn't "counted" as the highest jump. Even though it was, many say that their was no one who was qualified and accountable that measured the jump.
Most say and count that the highest jump is 2.32m instead of 2.47m because it was jumped in front of a crowd, even though both of these performances were taken on video.
