Shunzo Kido (城戸 俊三, July 4, 1889 – October 3, 1986) was a Japanese equestrian who competed in eventing at the 1928 and 1932 Summer Olympics. In 1932, while leading the tournament with one jump left, he felt that his horse became lame and dismounted to save her from potential injury, abandoning his chances for a medal.Shunzo Kido. gettyimages.co.ukPlaque commemorating the event at Mount RubidouxU.S. Honors Japanese For '32 Olympic Role.
