For goodness sake. When will people realise that these men and women, and their horses are trained military personnel. They are doing a job, keeping up tradition and should be respected. We are so lucky to be allowed to get so close and have photos taken. The patience and restraint they have to show just reiterates what fantastic soldiers they are. Thank you for everything you do, much respect.
Waarom wil bijna elke toerist dit lieve paard aaien. Als je lange tijd kijkt. Zie je dat dit paard niet meer geaait wilt worden De gaurd is alleen maar bezig om het paard te beschermen. Door naar voor en naar achter te rijden.😢😢😢😮😮😮😮
I would like to see a plaque which says DO NOT TOUCH THE HORSES. How would these people feel being forced to stand still while being pawed by every idiot that chooses.
@NattieChristopher It's about time that privilege was withdrawn. There was probably no need to ban touching in years previously when fewer people did so. Nowadays it seems that a visit is not complete unless a pic has been taken while touching a guard's horse. The constant patting, touching and milling around is stressful for these animals who cannot even back away.
As the wife of a former soldier and retired police officer ,may I say you are soldiers first. Stay proud. May I apologize for America if any of these idiots are unfortunately fellow citizens. They are as disrespectful also at our precious Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Bless You and God protect you. .
I've seen a video of the Tomb of the Unknown soldier.I think a woman got too close to it,and the guard had a right go at her. Lack of respect from the woman.🇬🇧
I get so upset with the tourists. This is not a petting zoo.they should not be allowed near the guard and horse. They are on duty and cant concentrate on their job with this being allowed to happen. It is so stressful to guard and horse and if the guard tells at them, they laugh. No respect.
Charlotte it is not just American tourists. I have witnessed other countries being disrespectful. Asian, French and Dutch to mention just a few recently. So in other words rude and disrespectful tourists no matter what country they are from.
Firstly to the guard thank you and all your colleagues for your service to our country and also for your patience on this duty. Secondly another thank you for the subtle way you stopped the public from overpowering your mount by moving him so they kept their distance (sort of). Third a suggestion (very tongue in cheek) add a working police dog to the petting zoo let’s see if the tourists get as close then
The new king will be amazing with horses like the nursery rhyme , although my favourite is Hickory, dickory Dock . Looking forward to next week & seeing the Royal carriage & all its jewels, although I will probably have to work as I have no money & not much food shame the Queen won’t see this but she is dead
No man or beast should be subjected to this infringement of personal space, dignity & stress. The palace needs to stop this now. This man is a trained soldier & is being reduced to a circus side show! Absolutely disgusting!
This is at Horse guards Parade, not the Palace. Buckingham Palace, St James's Palace and I expect Kensington Palace all have guards on foot, not mounted. The public can't get near the ones at Buckingham Palace as they are inside the fenced and gated yard. St James's is out of the way and probably Kensington too, so fewer tourists.
Yes, and who knows what kind of lotion, etc. is on their hands and touching around the horses mouths, you can tell by the horse sticking it's tongue out and shaking it's head that there was something irritating the horse. Touching horses should NOT be allowed, zero tolerance!!
The sign currently at the side of each horse, should be sufficient. What is required is for visitors to READ THE SIGN, put their brain in action and apply common sense, which will tell them not to stand or pass too near the horse. Do you think they would read another sign?
Ok im going to put this question out there, could we start a petition to ask whomever is in charge to stop allowing people to pet the horse and stop crowding the horse? I live in America so i dont know who you would go to about this but im here to tell you these people are really pissing me off by not showing these guards and horses respect, i agree with many of you that their not at a petting zoo. Sorry this was so long 😊
Dont be sorry ,I am from Australia and i have left a comment and i get pissed off to , why do they need to have a photo next to the horse ,its sickening 😡
These men aren't just there for decoration, they are highly skilled soldiers who have one job; to guard the palace. They are not to be messed with. I find it so hard to understand why the public is allowed to keep touching the horses. It must be so stressful for those beautiful animals to be constantly mauled. They should be off limits.
That Guard had more patience and discipline than I would've had. Warning a few times out of countless .. the professionalism of that Gaurd .. commendable!
The home office or the department of defence should be watching these . and do something about protecting the serving soldiers which the guards and horses are. Foreign vistors are bloody ignorant they don't act like this in their own country because they know what will happened to them so why do they do it here the police either arrested orgive them adispercal notice banning them from the area until the go back home
Exactly catherine, i can think of some countries that if we did something in front of their soldiers/guards/ police we would be straight off to the nearest prison.
Wish people would stop touching his nose… the perfumes etc on their hands would irritate him . People have no respect for these working horses as long as they get their picture…
Please can you put up a bloody sign informing ignorant tourists to tell them not to touch the horse😮that horse is anxious wow🫣hello I love when the guard shouted at them😅
The composure the guard has is unbelievable. Don’t understand why people are so ignorant. If I was to see a guard approaching I would give him plenty of room.
The training and temperament of these lovely animals is so impressive. Horses do not see well straight ahead and all those hands reaching for his sensitive nose are lucky not to get a nip.
😂😂😂 it’s just noise to them they been trained to handle louder noise and sounds special training is given for the horses to be used to noises, like the gun salutes and regimental bands, and they need to be comfortable in a procession, with noises coming from behind them.
It is abuse. No true horseman would subject his or any other horse to this antiquated fancy dress tradition. The simple fact that the mounted King´s guard needs protection from the contempory police, proves that they can´t protect even them selves at this day and age. So what's the use? Tourist industry justifying the monarchy? These horses are trained to suppress stress. But that doesn´t mean that they are not suffering from this helll that goes against every single aspect of the essence of the nature of a horse. A true horseman would read the clear body language of this highly sensitive living being and put a stop to this antiquated abuse. Horses aren´t made for standing still solo even for an hour, getting their sensitive ears and nose overloaded, let alone for being approached and touched out of the blue by strangers that to them being prey animals, look, ie small ears and eyes close together, move, ie on their hind leggs like an attacking bear or wolf, and smell like carnivorous predators. Horses´ natural behaviour consists of roaming and grazing the most part of the day in silence with the herd, scanning the surroundings constantly for danger. For a people that claims to be proud of their love for their horses, this abuse is top level Brittish hypocrasy. Exactly like abandonning remaining war horses at the battle field polluted with bombs and landmines ,left to fend for them selves after the ´Great War ´, because that was cheaper than bringing them back home. Leave the soldering and ´duties´ to the humans who invented that stuff.
Or use common sense, like most people who are now staying safe & away from people. I noticed none of these people were wearing masks , they could infect that poor horse with a virus or disease
8:50 look how the horse is locked on the commotion, what a beautiful horse. It might sound bad but when someone stands close I kind of want the horse to whack them lol
If a horse could talk I wonder what it would say to those people, maybe hello or you are too close you could give me an illness. I like horse but squirrels are my favourite animals especially as they are wild unless they are in a cage
I know how annoyed I got when people would walk up and try to pet my dog without asking first , and that's just when out for a walk, I can only guess how annoying it must be for the guard when they are actually on duty and people just assume it's ok to mess with their horse. Granted some guards seem to be a bit more ok with it than others....That said, they know their horses temperaments better than anyone else, and even the best trained animal can have a bad day. I'm not sure if a guard is allowed to answer if asked for permission, but I'd err on the side of caution and leave the animal alone.
I was thinking that I never saw any of this kind of behaviour when I lived in London years ago, and then I realised -- not everyone had cameras handy before mobile phones and the obsession with selfies
Everyone thinks they are a horse whisper. I wish that the King could see these videos so he can make changes! The disrespect to the Guards and horses is beyond the pale!
These people act like this is a Disneyland princess display!!! The guards are on active duty. These horses and guards are beautifully trained - but the tourists (especially the ADULTS) are rude, disrespectful and ignorant. I just wish that even one of them would just thank the guard for his patience and service to their king and country!
It’s disgusting that people don’t respect a horses want to not be touched . It’s clear the horse is moving it’s head away from these molesters yet they insist on touching it …..
The poor horse that took off down the street yesterday had obviously had enough and the tourists still clustered around while the soldier and rider were bringing it back
That horse loves its job like the guard except the horse isn’t getting paid. Maybe it will get some hay, although I’m elergic & suffer from hay fever & herpes
How have we devolved as a society to the point where a middle aged couple doesn't know better than to go grab the reins of a horse?! We have all become so "Disneyland-ed" that people can no longer tell what's real from what's imaginary. Jesus, you'd think they'd know a real live animal with an armed guard on top of it should not be messed with!
The sign should be changed to "Do not touch the horses or interfere with the Kings Guard". This is not a tourist attraction but the official representative of the Crowns security.
As I stated in another post. People react differently in different situations. Just because they laugh does not mean they think being yelled at by the guard, they sometimes laugh because they are embarrassed!
They people dress like hobos. They have no shame. I'd think if I was visiting another country I'd want to look and act respectable. Half the women look like prostitutes. I guess that's why.
I was more impressed by the pose between the guard and the horse as they were both looking in the same direction, starting in this video at 8:37 - 8:45. *Part of the Palace Guard's job is to Shout Out Loudly if anyone places their hands on them, and by the end of each day, their voice is "Hoarse."* *(No Pun intended.)* I can't imagine having a job that inquires sitting on a horse throughout the day as people from all walks of life come on each side of you to have their picture taken, and have to keep control of the animal and control over the tourist to keep their hands off of you. Just like little kids, I watch some adults who push the Palace Guard to get a reaction, testing their patience. Horses are one of the most gorgeous and magnificent animals, especially seeing them galloping in sync in unity. I love all animals. 💟
I wish they’d realise that approaching the horse, arm extended and palm upwards is tantamount to teasing since that is the way to feed it, doing it with an empty hand is cruel and likely to encourage biting.
❤ 2:11 our King's Guards and our Horses Deserve More Respect. For some around the world it seems humanity no longer exists😢decency no longer important and it's 0n Display here in front of our Precious Guards&Horses. Shameless is Proven.
Your horse should stand as still as a statue on command: posed with all four hooves on the ground and his nose straight in front of his chest. Once you give the command to stand still now think when public is touching the most sensitive area of the horse what is the horse going to do…! Now to control the horse is by its reins if people come and touch it its going to confuse horse and that can be dangerous, yes, these horses are trained to handle noises and that but touching the horse and reins the horses are going to think it’s been commanded to do something….! SO STOP TOUCHING THE HORSE DOING ITS DUTY
The guards and horses are so damn patient honestly tourists are so disrespectful . I think eventually there will be ropes around the area to stop people standing/ touching the horses and pics etc just because people cannot follow the rules
I did see one respectful gentleman ask the guard if he might give the horse a stroke on the neck, which is a neutral area for the horse, and he was granted permission.
These rude tourist's should be put in jail for a few days and get a hefty fine for touching the horse and the guard. The guards shouldn't have to put up with crazy rude tourists while on duty.
I know its cruel but i kinda like it when some of them get shouted at because you tell them they continue to do it. Plus its annoying when you siting on your horse trying to do your job ,in all that gear on probably feeling warm has heck, then the poor being harassed for a full hr , people touching all the time i know i be pissed off for my horse , its not a petting zoo ,they are there trying to do there job ,you can take a picture without annoying the horse and rider, be considerate..
“We are living in a country where I can march down the street with a bullhorn yelling that I can’t match down the street with a bullhorn.” American level lunacy with a British accent. 😂
This guardscman is SO patient! These tourist shouldn't be this close and NEVER tiuching tge hirse without permission. Since the guardsman is on guard duty he won't answer them.
For goodness sake. When will people realise that these men and women, and their horses are trained military personnel. They are doing a job, keeping up tradition and should be respected.

Some are not tourists but Brits 😂

@NattieChristopher it’s just a horse lol people act so fascinated by them it’s kinda cringe
For heaven sake stop the public from getting to the horses. When will they learn to be respectful it is so annoying.
It's like they have never seen a horse!
Agreed! These disrespectful peasants absolutely infuriate me 😤

Guard is perfectly in control of fidgeting horse. What is wrong with people trying to get pose with horse that is obviously not happy.
Ppl think that they can't get a pic unless they are touching the horse this probably the first time some ppl have seen a real horse they have no clue

Bahahahaha!
Yes exactly your own fault if you get bitten.

Unbelievable how calm the horse is despite constantly being petted
Never touch the reins of someone's horse because the same thing as touching the reins on a horse, you're basically grabbing the steering wheel.
When the shouting down the street started, that horse was very attentive
Seriously these tourists are so arrogant. The guard shouts at that woman and she thinks its funny.
Learn some manners and respect..

That horse was incredibly interested as soon as those who were marching started making noise. It's almost as if it was ready for action if needed 😊
Should be added to the notice- DON'T TOUCH THE REINS.
They did, the idiots still do it.
The horse looking at the protesters is thinking “not another group of idiots “
That beautiful horse - how he pricked up his ears when the shouting starting - so alert.
Totally agree 👍👍👍👍
What a handsome soldier!
I cannot believe how people put little children around horses mouth!!😢
Can they get any more people on that pavement? I’ve noticed it’s getting busier as the weather’s warming up.
There’s also probably an influx of tourists for the Coronation.

What's up with that carrot top going back numerous times? Get lost.
Such utter ignorance dispayed by tourists. They get yelled at and laugh. Apparently mental illness abounds.
Poor horse. Endless pestering.
Horse is very well trained & willing to put up with a lot. ❤
Don't people understand that the horse expects a treat to be on that extended hand? So mean to get the horse's hopes up time and time again.🤥
No one should ever be able to feed the horses. Who knows what the ignorant tourists would give them. stupid idea!
I love that huard the way he protects the horse x
He is not protecting the horse
What is a huard
Your horse should stand as still as a statue on command: posed with all four hooves on the ground and his nose straight in front of his chest. Once you give the command to stand still now think when public is touching the most sensitive area of the horse what is the horse going to do…! Now to control the horse is by its reins if people come and touch it its going to confuse horse and that can be dangerous, yes, these horses are trained to handle noises and that but touching the horse and reins the horses are going to think it’s been commanded to do something….! SO STOP TOUCHING THE HORSE DOING ITS DUTY
The guards and horses are so damn patient honestly tourists are so disrespectful . I think eventually there will be ropes around the area to stop people standing/ touching the horses and pics etc just because people cannot follow the rules
I did see one respectful gentleman ask the guard if he might give the horse a stroke on the neck, which is a neutral area for the horse, and he was granted permission.
Horse and guard so amazing
These rude tourist's should be put in jail for a few days and get a hefty fine for touching the horse and the guard. The guards shouldn't have to put up with crazy rude tourists while on duty.
It should be prohibited to touch the king's guard's horses period.
It should be forbidden to pet the horses!! Poor animals! Imagine you are being touched a few thousand times a day😮
The more I look at people,the more I like animals!😢
Both guard and horse just freeze looking at the approaching march 😅 kewl
The Guards shout out Necessary Warnings and the shameless mock and laugh; the behavior among the tourist groups IS disgusting
No one ever thanks the guard or the horse. So rude.
It’s the people taking the photos that are encouraging the person to touch the horse
The charge of the heavy brigade armed with a H&K submachine gun
I do think people would not be allowed to touch the horse’s guard. Those horses must be fed up with the tourists
Horse looks like he's thinking " what the hell is she shouting about now " ? Be glad when I can go back for some hay and grain !
The poor horse is uncomfortable
Horse was fascinated by woman on loudspeaker in the distance.
They would kill somebody for a photo...
I'm so glad i live in the northwest of England and not London.
I know its cruel but i kinda like it when some of them get shouted at because you tell them they continue to do it. Plus its annoying when you siting on your horse trying to do your job ,in all that gear on probably feeling warm has heck, then the poor being harassed for a full hr , people touching all the time i know i be pissed off for my horse , its not a petting zoo ,they are there trying to do there job ,you can take a picture without annoying the horse and rider, be considerate..
Wonderful guard
“We are living in a country where I can march down the street with a bullhorn yelling that I can’t match down the street with a bullhorn.” American level lunacy with a British accent. 😂
😄
Omg how do these poor soldiers and horses cope with the amount of folk constantly in at them!
This guardscman is SO patient! These tourist shouldn't be this close and NEVER tiuching tge hirse without permission. Since the guardsman is on guard duty he won't answer them.
Why don’t they have a sign saying : don’t touch the reigns , horse and guard on duty . Just a thought …..
I’ve noticed when a royal guard shouts at a tourist a policeman comes over.
The polieman should keep people from touching the horses at all .
