Later, there are many different shots of the course as the dogs/handlers mess up. Just watch those handlers as their dogs take the wrong obstacle! Complete devastation. Even though most of the footage goes fast and the action is far away, you can often see that the handler has made a cueing mistake: dropped a hand, turned the shoulders before the dog was committed, etc.

Traps and Mistakes
The music on this video is slightly annoying, but the visuals are very informative. It's full of mistakes from the Agility World Championships a few years ago (see, even the professionals mess up sometimes!). The first scene you see is an extreme trap. The dogs come off the jump and are supposed to take the A-frame. However, a lot of them are sucked into the tunnel.
