It is a unique blend of skill, dedication of horse and rider, and danger that becomes a way of life. Filmed all over the world, the programmes bring an insight to the leading international riders in each arena. In this installment, we explore the sport of Rodeo. Rodeo is the sport of the Cowboy, and the Cowboy is the Greatest of all American heroes. This spectacular, all-action introduction to the sport goes deep into the Wild West to show rodeo cowboys in each of the seven arena events: BAREBACK RIDING CALF ROPING SADDLE BRONC RIDING STEER WRESTLING WOMEN's BARREL RACING TEAM ROPING BULL RIDING Both extremes of man's relationship with the horse are on display: from the roper who requires consistency and precision in his race against the clock, to the bare-back rider who confronts an unfamiliar horse in eight seconds of explosive bucking action. The film features a round-up of bucking horses on a lonely Montana ranch, describes the history of the sport and gives an insider's view of the cowboy way of life. But most of all, in slow motion in the clear light of the Arizona desert, with the help of some classic country and western music, it shows rodeo action at its most exciting featuring Australian bronc rider Dave Appleton and Bronx bull-rider Bobby del Vecchio.
