@@barbaracheatham692 And, there’s a rumor going around that while a horse 🐎’s bite may be devastating in the form of leaving scars, “a zebra 🦓’s bite is worse.” There’s a saying that a dog 🐶’s bark is worse than its bite. I’d say that when it comes to horses 🐎, a horse 🐴’s display of its teeth threateningly is worse than its bite! And when it comes to zebras 🦓, a zebra 🦓’s bark is worse than its bite! LOL 😜
These guards are so well trained ..they put up with a lot from tourist, noise from protesters. The horses are not all keen on protestors noise. This horse acting in the fright mode must be young..not seasoned. Look those ridiculous protestors. What a zoo.
Бедные лошади, какое для них мучение, когда масса людей гладят, суют руки в морду лошади, дёргают за узду😢🤦♀️ Пожалейте лошадей, бестолковые туристы!!!
Amazes me how well they can handle that size of horse with one hand! I'm a pretty decent rider but I'd have trouble with one hand. Then again I'm not a soldier either so much respect to all horse guards!
I grew up riding Western style and always used only one hand - with the gentlest of touches. Two reins... I can't recall ever bringing my left hand up to grab the reins. Maybe I did once or twice, just don't remember. What I do remember is sometimes holding the end of the long reins with my left hand to fidget while using my right hand to "drive". I did use my legs and one hand even if the horse commenced crow-hopping or spinning. A noise with my mouth, tightening my grip and squeezing my legs but remaining calm.
I find it hard to believe that people are so thick that they stand in the way of a distressed horse. What the hell are they waiting for, a Guard to be thrown out of his saddle or the horse itself to fall? Disgusting.
@@carlytasmith5754 My own horse kicked me & cracked & chipped my femur, when I was much younger. The thickest & largest bone, in the human body. If my own horse can kick me, don't you think a horse that doesn't know you , can kick you as well & just as hard? People are just daft!!
They are trained for such things. They are Army Horses. Also, Police Horses are trained in Riot Control. Back when Horses were used in battle, they were trained not to react to gunshots or cannonball firing. They can tolerate a lot if they're trained. Horses are brave, and like with people sometimes, they only fear the unknown
Thank you for say that!! 100% totally wrong. The noises are to much for most of the horses. Stressfull .Those darn protesters dont give a s...about horses and guards

Tourists who come 2 London these days R so bloody rude!!! Why can’t they leave the King’s Guards alone???
Because they know the guards can't smack the s___ out of them and really they should be able to, but do love the way they just look at the a/hold's and don't bat a eyelid they are amazing
100% I live in the states and would LIVE to see it in person but I have a feeling I would be getting in a fight because if some of the tourists behavior 😂😂😂
These tourists act like this is a statue and not living, breathing horse and guard. Having thoroughbreds for the past 22 years, Ive had my horses act like this-They wake up in a mood just like people. Too many people in their face makes them headshy, too. And they’re a good judge of character.
I live in South Africa and must say, I have SO much respect for the Kings Guard and other guards. I was in the Military myself and know what respect means. I think with every stupid teenager in the UK, that mock the Guards like that, have NO IDEA what life is about and will probably end up living on grants. I take my hat off to these guards. NOT only do they guard the King, but also these moron teenagers. Every time they get mocked, I think they just feel that much PROUDER in themselves as guards!
Mas não são apenas adolescentes não, adultos bem adultos homens e mulheres desrespeitando os soldados de maneira grosseira, uma falta de educação que seja a dar nojo.
I'm From U. S & I Think The Guards & Horses Need To Be Respected With The Highest Respect. They Are Working. Not Side Show. They Are Protecting The King.& You Silly People That Don't Respect The Sing. Right In Front Of You. God Bless The Guardsman& His Horse.
Full respect for the soldiers for their service. The soldier is on duty and touching him or the horse is reprehensible. You can take a photo from a distance without touching the soldier or holding the horse's bridle. Moreover, horses belong to the King and touching or stroking them is disrespectful to the monarch.
I’ve observed as I saw new parts of the world where some things seemed so obvious were not. Every culture has unique characteristics and relationships with animals. I’ve learned that other cultures and their mores are not the same as the Home cultures.
@@juditrotter5176Nobody would think it’s okay for a stranger to walk up and touch them, their clothes, children, purse, backpack, pet etc! So why do they do this??
I can imagine. The horses get annoyed too. Being gawked at, touched and their reins pulled on all day. Constant street noise. There is only so much an animal can take. Animals are no different than humans. Respect how the troopers stepped in. To assist the Life Guard. Life Guard did phenomenal job. Trying to control the horse. Well done!♥️💂🇬🇧
I would love to visit there and I would ask if I could touch the horse and if I could get a picture with them then I would ask if I could talk to the horse and thank him or her for letting me pet him or her and tell them there doing a great job dealing with everyone here to keep up the great work there doing then I would turn to the rider and tell him he is doing a great job
It amazes me that the mentallity of some of the tourist is very childish. I cannot understand what they think they look like with the silly poses for photographs. Sometimes im amazed at the guardsmen straight faces because i would be in hysterics They look very young those soldiers god bless them ❤
Why do they have to touch the horse? People should not be allowed near the horse. He is working. I give it up to horses and handlers that have to do this day after day.

I don’t know why they allow ‘visitors’ so close. Must be very uncomfortable. Parents are teaching their kids it is ok to walk right up to a horse and start touching it. Most of the time the horses are not even biting.
No one’s strength out-powers a horse. I remember a piece I played in high school. Its theme was the bells of war. It forevermore sounded like it. I wonder what these horses hear when then hear drums, loud voices, sirens, and more.
Horses with staggers can show a wide array of symptoms including incoordination, trembling, staggering and may even fall. They can have anxious behaviour, hypersensitivity to sounds and can be easily spooked. Tilting can sometimes be indicative of some sort of physical problems, such as discomfort in the neck, teeth, or head. So, your first job is to make sure that your horse is not in pain by asking an equine dentist, physio, and your vet to check the horse over. That horse was definitely feeling uncomfortable there....
THESE INCREDIBLE KING'S GUARDS HORSES ARE PROBABLY BETTER CARED FOR THAN MORE THAN 2/3 rds OF THE WORLD'S HUMAN POPULATION!! THEY ARE STUNNING, EXTREMELY WELL TRAINED MILITARY SERVICE MEMBERS - THEY ARE ACTUALLY OFFICERS IN THE KING'S GUARDS!!! AND - ANY SPIRITED ANIMAL CAN HAVE A BAD DAY!! PEOPLE DO!! SO GIVE THEM A BREAK AND THINK THIS OVER - PLEASE??? HORSES ARE FLIGHT ANIMALS VERSUS FIGHT. I DON'T LIKE PEOPLE IN MY PERSONAL SPACE - AND I CAN WALK AWAY - THEY CANNOT!! IF YOUR INSTINCT WAS TO GET AWAY FROM MULTIPLE THINGS WAVING ABOUT YOUR HEAD, NECK AND CHEST AND YOU COULDN'T GET AWAY - HOW WOULD YOU DEFEND YOURSELF?? HOW ABOUT THE LOUD PROTESTORS, HOW ABOUT BANNER'S BLOWING ABOUT, AND THE IDIOT'S WHO OPEN A LARGE UMBRELLA RIGHT NEXT TO THEIR HEAD/FACE??? HOPEFULLY I'VE MADE MY POINT!! THESE HORSES AND THEIR RIDERS ARE AMONG THE ELITE KING'S LIFE GUARDS! THEY DESERVE TO BE TREATED WITH THE UTMOST RESPECT AND COURTESY - THEY ARE ALSO VETERANS AND HAVE RISKED THEIR LIVES FOR KING AND COUNTRY!!! IF YOU CAN'T RESPECT YOURSELVES - RESPECT THESE ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY SERVICE MEMBERS!!!
Easy to Google it and post, but from experience, I didn't see any major concerns from the horse, the "foaming" is totally normal and it becoming abit overstimulated can usually sorted by a quick walk and then returned to duties
These horses look pretty stoic to me. They are often in situations with ignorant visitors. My husband grew up with horses and had helped me moderate my behavior around them. One year my husband and I took a horse ride in Montana USA . Really controlled we were walking along the bank of a river. Very slow. In front of me was a teenage boy from Texas who had a lot of experience with horses. We were walking along and suddenly the horse in front reared up, made a big noise, reared up and the young man in front of me jumped off the horses back and out of the way. I admit to a certain amount of fear before that happened. I had no idea that I could leap off a horse and avoid falling into the river. Soon a horse on the other side of the river started making a bunch of utterances. The horse in front of me returned that horse’s utterances. The guides wisely started walking up and forth on our side of the river. When he got to us he said that the Cowboys’ horse and the horse across the river always wanted to be together. Fortunately the guide and my horse and the young man from Texas were able to all of us together and restart the ride for that day.
The horse is having a bad day. It's giving experienced handlers/soldiers a hard time. It's dangerous. Give that horse/soldier the day off & bring out another pair. The tourists are stupid when the horse is having a good day. That horse has no patience for that today.
I agree. People that handle large wild animals say to watch carefully for their signals that they are having a bad day and not in the mood. If the horse needs disciplining do it in private.
A horse that is this agitated for whatever reason should not be expected to stand quietly in a box. He is so distressed he is a danger to the guards and himself and is in no condition to have misbehaving tourists in his face.
Maybe I’m a bad person, but am waiting for the day when I see the headlines “Massive Guards horse tramples several tourists….. Physician reports “ they were just morons anyway”
Das ist die Frage. Aber es wird immer Menschen geben die vor Selbstgerechtigkeit strotzen. Keiner dieser Leute würde auf einer Wiese wo Pferde Grasen hineingehen und ein Pferd anfassen. Selbstüberschätzung und Arroganz , vor anderen Protzen, diese Situationen machen vorallem junge Menschen in der Gruppe. Sie wollen es den anderen Zeigen ( wie vertrottelt) was für Draufgänger sie sind. Damit bringen sie Andere in Gefahr......uns Merken nicht mal wie Dämlich sie sich benehmen. Und wenn's schief geht....sind die anderen Schuld . Ich bin jetzt 70, aber solche Scheiße was die jungen Leute heute fabrizieren , hätten wir uns NIEMALS einfallen lassen. Wir hatten noch RESPEKT, der ist vielen nicht mehr beigebracht worden und deshalb sind sie Respektlos..und noch Stolz drauf. Das sind die, die wenn sie alt geworden sind......allein ihr Leben fristen.....
OMG...watching this stateside. Given that it appears many ppl in 'general' seem to be ignorant of cusoms and traditions, they should ban touching, coming close to the horses period!
😢 I am in the US and can honestly say, I feel terrible for the guards and "especially" their beautiful horses. It makes me angry when they try to play their stupid games. God help them should the horse bite one of those people, or worse "really Really" injure a baby or adult, and do some serious damage. I pray for the guards and horses 😢.
A lot of these horses don't seem happy with their bits I I see many of them trying to get their tongue over it, trying to get more comfortable this can become a bad habit that's hard to break if the horse does get its tongue over the bit it's very painful making using the reins very difficult
@@demi3115they run a lot and are ridden every day. There is a track around Hyde Park. Fuck off you don't know anything. The horses are ridden, trained, stabled and lived by the guards. They troop the colour and do lots of duties the rest of the time they are running, training and being very well looked after.
@@kathellison8084thank you! The armchair experts have no idea how much our beloved late Queen Elizabeth II adored her horses and corgis let alone how well kept they were. Spoiled all of them!
I have seen a few videos where the horse stepped on the foot of someone who got too close. I think all the horses should be trained to do that. Maybe people would take the hint. Sigh, probably not.
I’m an American and I was taught manners, so there’s one Yank that wouldn’t do what these morons from other countries are displaying. I’d simply stop and say, thank you for your service. Wouldn’t even care to take a picture.
It's distressing to see the horse so distressed. Can't they take him in & change horses? Would seem much better for soldier & horse. Esp since he isn't calming.
It looks to me like the horse was in training and they were not letting the horse dictate and win. I saw no abuse or anything, but yes, you could tell the horse was having a hissy fit.
Horses get anxious, and it saddens me that they are kept standing for hours and on top of that they also have to put up with irritable and disrespectful people. It's horrible! That's why the horse acts in such a protective way. Don't touch and they touch it. And there is also a sign with information and people don't pay attention.
They usually swap the horse out for another after three refusals. They give it a couple of chances to settle down first before immediately changing it out.
they brought her back out twice? Why? 🐎🐴 11:28 This lady is a bit off. Hope she’s on her meds. 15:06 Another guy being quite weird. Poor horse! (why do they allow someone like that?)
This cheeky boy is trying to get himself reassigned. He couldn’t calm down for some reason. Horses are amazing creatures with distinct personalities. Love them so much! Also amazing is how these guards are trained to control their horse with one hand on the rein…respect
Thank you for this really interesting selection of things it makes a pleasant change from some video makers who try with enticing headlines and then you waste time waiting for something exciting, which turns out to be nothing. Thank you.
Beautiful rituals, wonderful traditions. But for some reason people don’t understand that animals have a hard time and they are nervous and should not be disturbed.
The horse must be very tired from being touched all day long by those annoying visitors. DO NOT TOUCH THE HORSE, LEAVE IT ALONE. THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO TOUCH THE HORSE OR THE GUARD AT ALL. I FEEL SORRY FOR THAT POOR HORSE. USA Too many people are permitted in that place at one time. There should be some order and discipline from the Queen's employees how many people could get access to the place at once. The Guard and the horse are both extremely tired I i can magine.
As someone who loves horses, and has respect for the military services, even here in America we have rude people, and their brains are in their backside. And it's the same for the tourists in London.
It really boggles my mind how extremely rude people are. If you are a tourist, you should educate yourself before heading to the destination, shouldn't you?!
That's at least what I do.
But what's really horrible - how absolutely peabrain-y those people seem like.
They just go up to these poor horses and guards, who are being harassed and touched by those childish, incredibly immature people.
I mean, if you are INcapable of keeping your bloody hands to yourself, well then ASK AT LEAST?!
Some guards do answer if you are respectfully keeping distance and asking.
SURPRISE, they're human too!
But usually it's NO TOUCHING of the horse - period!!! THEY'RE WORKING and not there for y'alls entertainment!!!
Would you want tourists disrespect your country's cherished people and places?!
Gosh....
I hope you guards know how much appreciated you are! Please give your best friends a good scratch for me ♥️

THESE INCREDIBLE KING'S GUARDS HORSES ARE PROBABLY BETTER CARED FOR THAN MORE THAN 2/3 rds OF THE WORLD'S HUMAN POPULATION!! THEY ARE STUNNING, EXTREMELY WELL TRAINED MILITARY SERVICE MEMBERS - THEY ARE ACTUALLY OFFICERS IN THE KING'S GUARDS!!!
AND - ANY SPIRITED ANIMAL CAN HAVE A BAD DAY!! PEOPLE DO!! SO GIVE THEM A BREAK AND THINK THIS OVER - PLEASE??? HORSES ARE FLIGHT ANIMALS VERSUS FIGHT. I DON'T LIKE PEOPLE IN MY PERSONAL SPACE - AND I CAN WALK AWAY - THEY CANNOT!! IF YOUR INSTINCT WAS TO GET AWAY FROM MULTIPLE THINGS WAVING ABOUT YOUR HEAD, NECK AND CHEST AND YOU COULDN'T GET AWAY - HOW WOULD YOU DEFEND YOURSELF?? HOW ABOUT THE LOUD PROTESTORS, HOW ABOUT BANNER'S BLOWING ABOUT, AND THE IDIOT'S WHO OPEN A LARGE UMBRELLA RIGHT NEXT TO THEIR HEAD/FACE??? HOPEFULLY I'VE MADE MY POINT!! THESE HORSES AND THEIR RIDERS ARE AMONG THE ELITE KING'S LIFE GUARDS! THEY DESERVE TO BE TREATED WITH THE UTMOST RESPECT AND COURTESY - THEY ARE ALSO VETERANS AND HAVE RISKED THEIR LIVES FOR KING AND COUNTRY!!!
IF YOU CAN'T RESPECT YOURSELVES - RESPECT THESE ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY SERVICE MEMBERS!!!
I thought the same, and they kept bringing him out with the same response . At what point do they realize something is wrong?
@@michellelester5011 absolutely true
Easy to Google it and post, but from experience, I didn't see any major concerns from the horse, the "foaming" is totally normal and it becoming abit overstimulated can usually sorted by a quick walk and then returned to duties
These horses have better healthcare than most people in the world. Please.
These horses look pretty stoic to me. They are often in situations with ignorant visitors. My husband grew up with horses and had helped me moderate my behavior around them. One year my husband and I took a horse ride in Montana USA . Really controlled we were walking along the bank of a river. Very slow. In front of me was a teenage boy from Texas who had a lot of experience with horses. We were walking along and suddenly the horse in front reared up, made a big noise, reared up and the young man in front of me jumped off the horses back and out of the way. I admit to a certain amount of fear before that happened. I had no idea that I could leap off a horse and avoid falling into the river. Soon a horse on the other side of the river started making a bunch of utterances. The horse in front of me returned that horse’s utterances. The guides wisely started walking up and forth on our side of the river. When he got to us he said that the Cowboys’ horse and the horse across the river always wanted to be together. Fortunately the guide and my horse and the young man from Texas were able to all of us together and restart the ride for that day.
People shouldn't touch the horses at all especially around the nose as the guards don't know what they have handled before hand.
I could only watch half of this video. The King’s Guards and their horses were magnificent, but the tourists made me ill.
I get the protocols, but this really feels unfair to the horse :(
Ridiculous protests!
The Guards are highly trained soldiers, and have a tough job to do. The tourists should respect, and appreciate them instead of acting as total jerks!
I'm not sure it's an act. Seems the world has no shortage of em.
I’ve noticed that several of the horses are working their mouths a lot like their bits are bothering them. Any thoughts on that?
The horse looks like he wants to run a little. He doesnt want to stand still today.
😅true😢
The horse is having a bad day. It's giving experienced handlers/soldiers a hard time. It's dangerous. Give that horse/soldier the day off & bring out another pair. The tourists are stupid when the horse is having a good day. That horse has no patience for that today.
I think you are stupid. That horse is on duty. Something is just bothering its mouth. It can't be helped. Stop complaining.
Totally agree. Like us, horses have bad days.
Did you hear the Loud Drums? Also Some horses don’t like Bagpipes! Very discerning these music-loving Horses!
They are only at their guard post for one hour and not even every day .
I agree. People that handle large wild animals say to watch carefully for their signals that they are having a bad day and not in the mood. If the horse needs disciplining do it in private.
They should have taken the horses in until noise had passed. That one was certainly too agitated to stand guard this day.
Exactly. Poor horse wasn't well and they insisted in bringing it out.
A horse that is this agitated for whatever reason should not be expected to stand quietly in a box. He is so distressed he is a danger to the guards and himself and is in no condition to have misbehaving tourists in his face.
Did That Kid Think He Was Cute? Thumbing His Nose. It Wasn't. At All. I. M. H. O.These People Have No Respect At All.
Maybe I’m a bad person, but am waiting for the day when I see the headlines “Massive Guards horse tramples several tourists….. Physician reports “ they were just morons anyway”
Um, that’s really dark. Do you mean it or just feeling snarky?
Das ist die Frage. Aber es wird immer Menschen geben die vor Selbstgerechtigkeit strotzen.
Keiner dieser Leute würde auf einer Wiese wo Pferde Grasen hineingehen und ein Pferd anfassen.
Selbstüberschätzung und Arroganz , vor anderen Protzen, diese Situationen machen vorallem junge Menschen in der Gruppe. Sie wollen es den anderen Zeigen ( wie vertrottelt) was für Draufgänger sie sind. Damit bringen sie Andere in Gefahr......uns Merken nicht mal wie Dämlich sie sich benehmen.
Und wenn's schief geht....sind die anderen Schuld .
Ich bin jetzt 70, aber solche Scheiße was die jungen Leute heute fabrizieren , hätten wir uns NIEMALS einfallen lassen.
Wir hatten noch RESPEKT, der ist vielen nicht mehr beigebracht worden und deshalb sind sie Respektlos..und noch Stolz drauf.
Das sind die, die wenn sie alt geworden sind......allein ihr Leben fristen.....
YES!!!👍
Genial
I honestly think it's only a matter of time at this rate.
This horse just isn't having it today, totally spooked😢
The horses are normally fine until they get abused by the tourists
OMG...watching this stateside. Given that it appears many ppl in 'general' seem to be ignorant of cusoms and traditions, they should ban touching, coming close to the horses period!
A beautiful video, thank you 💛💛
😢 I am in the US and can honestly say, I feel terrible for the guards and "especially" their beautiful horses. It makes me angry when they try to play their stupid games. God help them should the horse bite one of those people, or worse "really Really" injure a baby or adult, and do some serious damage. I pray for the guards and horses 😢.
The guards try to protect the children if you notice
How dare those people. This young man and his horse doing an important job have some respect people!!!!
A lot of these horses don't seem happy with their bits I I see many of them trying to get their tongue over it, trying to get more comfortable this can become a bad habit that's hard to break if the horse does get its tongue over the bit it's very painful making using the reins very difficult
Yeah, and i doubt they get a field to run around it. Must be a lot of added stress on top of that.
@@demi3115 They are regularly turned out to grass in Melton Mowbray
@@demi3115they run a lot and are ridden every day. There is a track around Hyde Park. Fuck off you don't know anything. The horses are ridden, trained, stabled and lived by the guards. They troop the colour and do lots of duties the rest of the time they are running, training and being very well looked after.
@@kathellison8084thank you! The armchair experts have no idea how much our beloved late Queen Elizabeth II adored her horses and corgis let alone how well kept they were. Spoiled all of them!
@@demi3115you’re absolutely wrong.
He just doesn't want to be there, he's stressed out.
I have seen a few videos where the horse stepped on the foot of someone who got too close. I think all the horses should be trained to do that. Maybe people would take the hint. Sigh, probably not.
Or kick!
I thought it was just the AMERICANS WERE RUDE. I WAS WRONG AGAIN.
Nope. Some of these others are so rude they make Americans look good
Poor Yanks always take the heat, if not the cake (???). They're not the world's worst.😊
I’m an American and I was taught manners, so there’s one Yank that wouldn’t do what these morons from other countries are displaying. I’d simply stop and say, thank you for your service. Wouldn’t even care to take a picture.
All the restless horses are in the same box 😮
Stop the protesters from coming on this street
Os monarcas querem dinheiro
The guard sure gets a workout restraining the horse, constantly!
Why would you touch someones boot 👢?????
Especially the amount of time it takes to polish those huge cavalry boots up to the expected standard.
Or invade personal space in any way - shape - or form?
They should make distance line for public towards Royal Guard !!! I watching this and always public disrespect the Guard that not good !!!
I wouldn’t care a thing about visiting London, it’s TOO noisy!!! I don’t blame those horses for rebelling!!
EXACTLY..!!! I feel for horses .. 😔♥️🇨🇦
Don't worry, we want lose our sleep if you don't come.
Fine with us, stay where you are fella
probably a wise decision we do not have enough mental health institution places for tourists.
London is a lovely place to visit!
That horse is clearly very distressed and frothy at the mouth.....clearly doesn't want metal in his mouth
This horse is determined to not serve his one full hour in the box when he can hear protesters.
ENOUGH!!! Stop alowing the people to touch the horses!!! It's just that simple!!!
You can see that the horse is not happy .
There's something wrong with her mouth. My God give her a break!!!!!
Impressive work by the mounted soldier to keep control of the spooked horse.
Poor horse he needs a break He's tired please don't break his spirit. I love horses They are so majestically beautiful
Esos caballos descansan y sé alimentan muy bien y tienen buen servicio veterinario,mucho movimiento y ruidos los incomodan
It's distressing to see the horse so distressed. Can't they take him in & change horses? Would seem much better for soldier & horse. Esp since he isn't calming.
It looks to me like the horse was in training and they were not letting the horse dictate and win. I saw no abuse or anything, but yes, you could tell the horse was having a hissy fit.
Obviously the horse has a problem. It is so painful to see him forced back into the box over and over again. Give him a break. 😢
He was not being forced into the box, he was walked in, if they had given in right away then he probably would never go in again.
Calm down Karen
@@swashington942well, does it look like it accepts teh bit? not really huh? horses can be in pain, too. Dimwit.
This is all part of the horses training. Later on it'll handle demonstrations
IKR. They usually let them leave for the day.😢😢😢
Nobody likes noises especially animals !
Why didn’t they take the house off duty . He was very unhappy.
After three refusals they usually swap the horse out for another. They'll give it a couple of chances to settle first.
Exactly, it was cruel. Just give him a break.
@@allie.lazio.imagine if we just didn't train animals and just let them loose when they "weren't feeling the vibe" or whatever.
@@milkymilk53don't be too weird. That horse really seems like he needs a break from that madness 😢😢
Horses get anxious, and it saddens me that they are kept standing for hours and on top of that they also have to put up with irritable and disrespectful people. It's horrible! That's why the horse acts in such a protective way. Don't touch and they touch it. And there is also a sign with information and people don't pay attention.
Why keep bringing it back when it's so disturbed? Always one nutter, in this case 2 or 3 or 4!.
Canny horses might play up more often if they got let off the hook!
They usually swap the horse out for another after three refusals. They give it a couple of chances to settle down first before immediately changing it out.
How hard is it to read the sign and have a little common sense sheesh!
Many are Chinese and all signs in London are English only.
they brought her back out twice? Why? 🐎🐴
11:28 This lady is a bit off. Hope she’s on her meds. 15:06 Another guy being quite weird. Poor horse! (why do they allow someone like that?)
Yes. Where are the police in these cases?
That poor horse. So cruel. It shouldn't be a bloody circus.
Gosh, the horse nearly head butt the guy in camouflage uniform 😮! The poor creature's are spooked by the protesters over yonder! 🧐😢
Solidarietà a cavallo e cavaliere. È dura dover sopportare la mancanza di rispetto .
Ammirazione profonda.
This is the limit for me it is total madness having horses out when protests are happening. Public to near horses it's total idiocy.
It's stupid to have protests where horses are. There, fixed that for you
Why are all the Asians always making the peace sign? Is outright stupid!
I wouldn’t have said a word I would let my 1200 pound horse do the talking. What’s with the peace signs🤪
Dumb orientals, they show no respect! You would be thrown in prison if you were in their country 🤬
How do those horses still have one hair left is beyond me.
The horses seem to be more annoyed by the visitors. I would be.
Je comprend l'agacement du cheval avec tous ces gens 😅😅et son immobilité forcé 😢😢
Trained, not forced.
This cheeky boy is trying to get himself reassigned. He couldn’t calm down for some reason. Horses are amazing creatures with distinct personalities. Love them so much! Also amazing is how these guards are trained to control their horse with one hand on the rein…respect
If i ever had yhechance to visit,i would not be a dumb tourist or ignorant and privileged, ❤
That horse is making it very clear he does NOT want to do this today!!!
Thank you for this really interesting selection of things it makes a pleasant change from some video makers who try with enticing headlines and then you waste time waiting for something exciting, which turns out to be nothing. Thank you.
Some people are just so disrespectful.
Not a happy bunny that day and then the idiots line up to be disrespectful, another day at Horse Guards. ☹️
Ya know....TRAINED or NOT I'm sure even horses have their breaking point, melt downs, can freak out....NEVER UNDERESTIMATE an animal....ANY ANIMAL!!!!
Big sign says ‘don’t touch the reins’…. So most idiots touch the reins. 🤦♂️
Beautiful rituals, wonderful traditions. But for some reason people don’t understand that animals have a hard time and they are nervous and should not be disturbed.
That horse should have taken off-guard immediately. If an animal is uncomfortable or aggitated it shows. Just plain commen sense
This tourist attraction needs to stop. I am surprised people still have access to this place.
The band with bagpipes would cause any horse to meltdown
That thing in the horse mouth is bothering him 😢
This is why I am a hermit.
Yep
The horse must be very tired from being touched all day long by those annoying visitors.
DO NOT TOUCH THE HORSE, LEAVE IT ALONE. THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO TOUCH THE HORSE OR THE GUARD AT ALL. I FEEL SORRY FOR THAT POOR HORSE. USA
Too many people are permitted in that place at one time. There should be some order and discipline from the Queen's employees how many people could get access to the place at once.
The Guard and the horse are both extremely tired I i can magine.
As someone who loves horses, and has respect for the military services, even here in America we have rude people, and their brains are in their backside. And it's the same for the tourists in London.
I don't understand the tourists... everyone can see that the horse is scared and yet everyone stands stupidly in the way.
