When i traveled from NYC to Oxford for university, my father placed a note in my trunk that congratulated me on my placement, wished me well and hoped the experience enriched me. He ended the note in no uncertain terms: "Remember at all times: YOU ARE A GUEST IN THE COUNTRY. You abide by their rules, their traditions, their customs." Best advice i ever received. It was also the best two years of my life.
Even the lady walking knew to stop and let him go by. It's not rocket science. Everyone else knew to get out of the way before he even rounded the corner.

The dude wasnt being disrespectful, as a lot of commenters point out, the man in the white t shirt said "how was i supposed to know he would turn right now". Sure he didnt move as soon as the guard got in his face, but you can see the chok on him. He did not expect it. Dont be so pretentious dude.

They have to a certain extent (for guards with firearms anyway). The Foot Guards at Buckingham Palace used to be out front but they’re within the forecourt behind the fence now. The guards at the Tower of London have a small ankle-high partition that keeps tourists back although they still march through public areas. Horseguards is a bit harder because it’s not just a barracks but that tunnel is how the public can get from Whitehall to St. James Park without going to Trafalgar Square or Parliament Square.
Then the palace guard rules need to be changed from “people must move out of their path” To “Let the people push guards around and harass them to their heart’s content.”
I am not from the UK, but I've done enough research to understand that the royal guard should be respected and given way wherever they walk. When someone shows disrespect to the royal guard, it makes me wonder if they do the same to the military in their own country.

Americans are pariahs in the world in my opinion.
That’s real strength. Walking away and not escalating unnecessarily. The man should have moved for the guard but it is also possible he froze when the guard came eye to eye with him. These guards put up with so much that it is encouraging to see a person maintain their composure.
I'm an American, so the entire monarchy-thing eludes me. That being said, I am a loss as to why the tourist would not stand aside. Props to the guard for not walking right thru the clueless tourist.
He was walking straight ahead and decided to go have a chat to the guy, there was no being rude by anybody, looked like the Queens guard knew the fulla
Comment section have been manipulated so badly by the video title. This looked just like guard walked right to this guy and wanted to say warn him, that's why he stood still and stare at the guard. He was taking a photo and probably thought that this guard is having a problem with that. Tourists can be annoying but to me this guy haven't done anything wrong imo. He seemed really confused and probably thought he is getting arrested for the photo lol
Almost as much of a waste as your comment was He is a soldier, and interfering with his dutys is against the law, if i pissed on the tomb of the unknown soldier im wouldnt be considered a waste of "time and energy" to arrest me
Crazy comments. The guard turned directly into the tourist and said something to him - maybe the guy was deaf or didn't speak English. The guard could easily have made his turn around the guy the tourist DID NOT move in front of the guard to block his path the tourist was already just standing in place.

@@user-rb9wz8or1m well I don't know the guard personally so I wouldn't know.

What a coincidence .....because I am lost as to how you can prance down the street playing your little pipes every year ....oh wait im guessing its different when other places have traditions 😉
@@ItaAndyOfficial lt is exactly that approach, that all the soldiers that do guard duty, Hate!! It's bufoons with that mentality that get on their last nerve. These men are normally on Horse but foot soldiers for guard. ( personally l think they should forego the hip high boots for something more comfortable when on guard.
At first I also thought he was a crazy person, but after watching it over and over again, I saw that from the beginning he also stepped aside to give way because he thought the soldier would go straight but then the soldier turned right in the right direction. so maybe he thought the soldier was going to say something to him
It looked more like that guard was directly addressing that man and was about to speak. You can even see the guy stand there expectantly. If you thought someone was about to speak to you, especially a soldier, I wouldn't start trying to avoid them lol that would be so suspicious.
Precisely the guard chose to have that interaction. Did anyone else notice that the guard walked around the group of people that were directly in the path instead of doing what he did to the man?
The tourist moved out of the way based on the direction the guard was walking. The guard turned directly towards the tourist. This wasn’t ‘disrespectful’. This was a tourist being confused, at most.
I can admit in myself that I find most traditions outdated and do not care enough to respect them so I stay away from people/areas that are heavily held to them. Simple.
I think the cop was asking the Queen's guard if everything was all right after the encounter. Couldn't tell what the Queen's guard said, but it looked like he said, "he was just standing there he wouldn't move"
This is why I don't leave America. I wouldn't think he'd turn right into me either. And it's not just that, there's some parts of America I ain't going to. It truly is a big enough world for everyone to have their own beach.
I've never been to the UK but have been all through the Caribbean and Cuba,Mexico, and as a tourist, I don't fck up in their countries you will likely wind up somewhere you don't want.
One's assumption of another's job responsibility does not make it reality. Queens guards should be allowed to do what they are trained to do. Not cater to tourist.
These guards don't just take up positions on horses and stand about all day..the job they do starts at 3.30 in the morning and lasts throughout the day respect them and stay out of the way or don't go there!
When we went there last summer, we made sure to look up the traditions and expectations of the tourists visiting to experience the different ceremonies, such as changing of the guard, etc. I'm surprised the guard did not raise his voice and push past the tourist. "Make way for the King's Guard!"
The terrorists are the British. You murdered our young men. Oh, me name is Joe McDonnell, from Belfast town I came That city I will never see again For in the town of Belfast, I spent many happy days I love that town in oh-so many ways For it's there I spent my childhood and found for me a wife I then set out to make for her a life But all my young ambitions met with bitterness and hate I soon found myself inside a prison gate And you dared to call me a terrorist while you looked down your gun When I think of all the deeds that you had done You had plundered many nations, divided many lands You had terrorized their peoples, you ruled with an iron hand And you brought this reign of terror to my land Through those many months internment in the Maidstone and the Maze I thought about my land throughout those days Why my country was divided, why I was now in jail Imprisoned without crime or without trial And though I love my country, I am not a bitter man I've seen cruelty and injustice at first hand So then one fateful morning, I shook bold freedom's hand For right or wrong, I'd try to free my land And you dared to call me a terrorist while you looked down your gun When I think of all the deeds that you had done You had plundered many nations, divided many lands You had terrorized their peoples, you ruled with an iron hand And you brought this reign of terror to my land Then one cold October's morning trapped in a lion's den And I found myself in prison once again I was committed to the H-blocks for fourteen years or more On the blanket, the conditions, they were poor Then a hunger strike we did commence, for the dignity of man But it seemed to me that no one gave a damn But now I am a saddened man, I've watched my comrades die If only people cared or wondered why And you dared to call me a terrorist while you looked down your gun When I think of all the deeds that you had done You had plundered many nations, divided many lands You had terrorized their peoples, you ruled with an iron hand And you brought this reign of terror to my land May God shine on you, Bobby Sands, for the courage you have shown May your glory and your fame be widely known And Francis Hughes and Ray McCreesh, who died unselfishly And Patsy O'Hara, and the next in line is me And those who lie behind me, may your courage be the same And I pray to God my life is not in vain Ah, but sad and bitter was the year of 1981 For what Thatchers cost and yet we have not lost.
The Royal Guards are not just for show. They are the best of the best. Similar to the Tomb Of The Unknown Soldier Guards. They dont demand respect but could very easily make you rethink your stupid choices. Much Respect for them. And not British, I am American
But how did the guy know that the guard would be turning at that exact spot? It looked like he was taking a picture of the woman. I don't see the big offense here.

When you travel it’s your responsibility to research that country’s customs so that you are always aware of your surrounding and proper etiquette.
How can he know that the guard is turning?
The guard had all the space in the world but decided to walk in to another person
Is it like emergency Ambulance, we need to make a way? Good to know the etiquettes, I will be careful too
Same shit when they come to America 🇺🇸
@@maneesh008 koz he walked right up to him. And he didn't move at all out of the way. No excuse.
That’s real strength. Walking away and not escalating unnecessarily. The man should have moved for the guard but it is also possible he froze when the guard came eye to eye with him. These guards put up with so much that it is encouraging to see a person maintain their composure.
I'm a Polish-American, retired U.S. Army. That man embarrassed me. Obviously he never served -- except himself.
Aussie here, tourists should be fenced out, so they do not create ignorant behaviour, even if unintentionally
No, the tourist is Polish here. Vodka is a hell of a drink🤦🤦🤦.
Then how can the UK make money from them?
how the fuck should he know that he would turn there? It must have looked to him that the guard wanted to talk for whatever reason.
No... people should do as they are told. End of
how can someone be unintentionally ignorant.
Isn't that something you can only be knowing
I'm an American, so the entire monarchy-thing eludes me. That being said, I am a loss as to why the tourist would not stand aside. Props to the guard for not walking right thru the clueless tourist.

He was walking straight ahead and decided to go have a chat to the guy, there was no being rude by anybody, looked like the Queens guard knew the fulla
Oh shut up
Dam that you
🤣🤣🤣🤣 👏👏
Nothing disrespectful about it, the guards are just for show and it's pathetic.
Comment section have been manipulated so badly by the video title. This looked just like guard walked right to this guy and wanted to say warn him, that's why he stood still and stare at the guard. He was taking a photo and probably thought that this guard is having a problem with that. Tourists can be annoying but to me this guy haven't done anything wrong imo. He seemed really confused and probably thought he is getting arrested for the photo lol
Nope he knew to move but thought he would stare down the King’s Soldier. Pathetic behaviour.
I think tourists who behave badly should be given a ticket and escorted off the premises.
Que doidera né

Why do the Royal guards have to do that? This is a waste of time and energy.
Almost as much of a waste as your comment was
He is a soldier, and interfering with his dutys is against the law, if i pissed on the tomb of the unknown soldier im wouldnt be considered a waste of "time and energy" to arrest me
Crazy comments.
The guard turned directly into the tourist and said something to him - maybe the guy was deaf or didn't speak English. The guard could easily have made his turn around the guy the tourist DID NOT move in front of the guard to block his path the tourist was already just standing in place.
Son soldados que están haciendo su trabajo y muchos son soldados condecorados por sus servicios al país. Respeten las tradiciones de todos los países democráticos.
My deepest THANKS sir for your comment. Thank you for your respect for soldiers of the King.😂❤

This impolite behaviour is not unusual,it's because the British are very polite and respectful in comparison.
Common courtesy is something that person lacks apparently. Way to go, make your mother proud.
I'm sure tourists don't know where he is going
The guard unexpectedly turns straight to that man. Also he has plenty of room between the man and that group of tourists. Guard is just a jerk.
Fragile ego
@@jewel2022now I'm sure of that too. When he walks straight up to your face and he's waiting for you to yield that's where the courtesy comes in.
@@user-rb9wz8or1m well I don't know the guard personally so I wouldn't know. But based on what I did see yes there's a lot of room everywhere and those guards have a very rigid protocol to follow I'm sure.

The tourist didn’t even know the guard was coming his way. No disrespect at all. Just surprise.
I find that hard to believe cause he was facing him even before the soldier turned to him, he had plenty of time to get out of the way.
These poor guards take so much abuse from tourists. It makes me sick. They are honorable men of a fine tradition.

Thank you. Am a Brit but lived in U.S over 50yrs. As I see these IDIOTS, it makes me cry. These Guards ARE ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY.

Right
@@ItaAndyOfficial lt is exactly that approach, that all the soldiers that do guard duty, Hate!! It's bufoons with that mentality that get on their last nerve. These men are normally on Horse but foot soldiers for guard.
( personally l think they should forego the hip high boots for something more comfortable when on guard.
At first I also thought he was a crazy person, but after watching it over and over again, I saw that from the beginning he also stepped aside to give way because he thought the soldier would go straight but then the soldier turned right in the right direction. so maybe he thought the soldier was going to say something to him
Exactly.
It looked more like that guard was directly addressing that man and was about to speak. You can even see the guy stand there expectantly.
If you thought someone was about to speak to you, especially a soldier, I wouldn't start trying to avoid them lol that would be so suspicious.
Precisely the guard chose to have that interaction. Did anyone else notice that the guard walked around the group of people that were directly in the path instead of doing what he did to the man?
The tourist moved out of the way based on the direction the guard was walking. The guard turned directly towards the tourist.
This wasn’t ‘disrespectful’. This was a tourist being confused, at most.
Thats correct 👍
Disrespectful public servant... Stand down, royalty's a sham. Give the people actually contributing to the economy room to work.
I can admit in myself that I find most traditions outdated and do not care enough to respect them so I stay away from people/areas that are heavily held to them. Simple.

@@Euharlee this was obviously before the Queen passed. This was therefore the Queens Guard.

This is why I don't leave America. I wouldn't think he'd turn right into me either. And it's not just that, there's some parts of America I ain't going to. It truly is a big enough world for everyone to have their own beach.
This soldier seemed really polite. He didn't have to.
A sign of power.
The name of the game is "dodge the guard". Keep an eye on the guard's movements and make sure your reaction time is lightning fast.
Darwin award, if a royal guard is holding a sword and asks you to move away. You move away
I've never been to the UK but have been all through the Caribbean and Cuba,Mexico, and as a tourist, I don't fck up in their countries you will likely wind up somewhere you don't want.
One's assumption of another's job responsibility does not make it reality. Queens guards should be allowed to do what they are trained to do. Not cater to tourist.
I see the reason of the. Presence of the Police. !!! To avoid the impolite tourists .
Exactly Michael
Îaorana respect au garde
Look his face. And you have nothing to say.
It is a ceremonial role. It's 2022 that dude ain't doing shit with his sword and yoga pants.
These guards don't just take up positions on horses and stand about all day..the job they do starts at 3.30 in the morning and lasts throughout the day respect them and stay out of the way or don't go there!
they should stop the public getting that close.
When the Queens Guard says " MAKE WAY FOR THE QUEENS GUARD"! Don't be RUDE OR FLIPPANT_____ JUST MOVE!!!!
When we went there last summer, we made sure to look up the traditions and expectations of the tourists visiting to experience the different ceremonies, such as changing of the guard, etc. I'm surprised the guard did not raise his voice and push past the tourist. "Make way for the King's Guard!"
Never negotiate with terrorists, I mean tourists.
The terrorists are the British.
You murdered our young men.
Oh, me name is Joe McDonnell, from Belfast town I came
That city I will never see again
For in the town of Belfast, I spent many happy days
I love that town in oh-so many ways
For it's there I spent my childhood and found for me a wife
I then set out to make for her a life
But all my young ambitions met with bitterness and hate
I soon found myself inside a prison gate
And you dared to call me a terrorist while you looked down your gun
When I think of all the deeds that you had done
You had plundered many nations, divided many lands
You had terrorized their peoples, you ruled with an iron hand
And you brought this reign of terror to my land
Through those many months internment in the Maidstone and the Maze
I thought about my land throughout those days
Why my country was divided, why I was now in jail
Imprisoned without crime or without trial
And though I love my country, I am not a bitter man
I've seen cruelty and injustice at first hand
So then one fateful morning, I shook bold freedom's hand
For right or wrong, I'd try to free my land
And you dared to call me a terrorist while you looked down your gun
When I think of all the deeds that you had done
You had plundered many nations, divided many lands
You had terrorized their peoples, you ruled with an iron hand
And you brought this reign of terror to my land
Then one cold October's morning trapped in a lion's den
And I found myself in prison once again
I was committed to the H-blocks for fourteen years or more
On the blanket, the conditions, they were poor
Then a hunger strike we did commence, for the dignity of man
But it seemed to me that no one gave a damn
But now I am a saddened man, I've watched my comrades die
If only people cared or wondered why
And you dared to call me a terrorist while you looked down your gun
When I think of all the deeds that you had done
You had plundered many nations, divided many lands
You had terrorized their peoples, you ruled with an iron hand
And you brought this reign of terror to my land
May God shine on you, Bobby Sands, for the courage you have shown
May your glory and your fame be widely known
And Francis Hughes and Ray McCreesh, who died unselfishly
And Patsy O'Hara, and the next in line is me
And those who lie behind me, may your courage be the same
And I pray to God my life is not in vain
