Swedish showjumping rabbits bounce into action

You might have seen them hopping around your garden, a field, or a local golf course. But have you ever seen a rabbit showjumping?

Or indeed, a Swedish rabbit showjumping? Well, you're about to.

That's exactly what they were doing at Earls Court today. The bouncing bunnies flew in specially from Sweden to perform at the London Pet Show this weekend.

Apparently the sport is quite popular in Scandinavia and the record for the highest ever jump - an impressive 99.5 centimeters is held by a Danish bunny.

Watch the rabbits spring into action below. The first one goes to plan. The rabbit in the second video is a little reluctant to get going.
