You said it not us ! you must have an infearor complexs
The Swiss Guard is an Army unto themselves, whereas the Queen's guard is part of the British Army, so still accurate.
I think the Swiss Guards are more photographed than the Queen's Guards. There are way more tourists and pilgrims in Vatican City than at Buckingham Palace.

When I was a kid I wanted to serve in Swiss Guard too, but after some time I realized that I would have to be from Switzerland
Same here plus im below 5,8 😭🤣
😂😂
You could try the French Foreign Legion.
You actually just need swiss citizenship.
And you need to be Catholic
And be Single
And must have basic training with the swiss armed forces
And must be 18-30 and you must have a high school diploma
@@antoninuslarpus7107
Wrong, you have to be below 30 years of age and have served in the swiss military, thats where they are recruted.
Also, it takes like 10 years until you get the chance of receiving citicenship in switzerland if you are lucky.
With other words, its impossible to be in the swiss guard if you arent swiss.
And thats GOOD. Its called SWISS guard for a reason and it has a deep history.
Its not called "hey i wanna join the club from wherever".
Long Live the Swiss Guard and Godbless! 🇨🇭🇻🇦
I wish I could join the Swiss guard. As a Catholic these men bring me tremendous pride. Knowing they are keeping the faith while protecting the holy father.
God bless the Swiss guards, our Pope and the Roman Catholic Church.
Awww Thanks for this great video!
FOR THE GRACE AND THE MIGHT OF THE LORD!
FOR THE HOME OF THE HOLY
FOR THE FAITH, FOR THE WAY OF THE SWORD!

How you have saved the arm that is feeble!
3What advice you have offered to one without wisdom!
And what great insight you have displayed!
4Who has helped you utter these words?
And whose spirit spoke from your mouth?
5“The dead are in deep anguish,
those beneath the waters and all that live in them.
6The realm of the dead is naked before God;
Destruction a lies uncovered.
7He spreads out the northern skies over empty space;
he suspends the earth over nothing.
8He wraps up the waters in his clouds,
yet the clouds do not burst under their weight.
9He covers the face of the full moon,
spreading his clouds over it.
10He marks out the horizon on the face of the waters
for a boundary between light and darkness.
11The pillars of the heavens quake,
aghast at his rebuke.
12By his power he churned up the sea;
by his wisdom he cut Rahab to pieces.
13By his breath the skies became fair;
his hand pierced the gliding serpent.
14And these are but the outer fringe of his works;
how faint the whisper we hear of him!
Who then can understand the thunder of his power?”
I would give my right hand to protect the holy father.

Swiss guard heroic stand at tuilleries palace remind me of 300 spartan last stand thermophylae or croatian at szegetvar.
or the Boers at the battle of blood river.
Beyond the traditional 15th century armor and clothing. This Swiss guard is still an active Swiss army tho with their Military Camo BDU and firearm.
Thank you so much
Those are some brave young lads! I do hope they find success in their careers! ^^
The Swiss have been neutral for over 800 years. What about dressing like you belong at the Renaissance fair makes you brave?
I will serve my father's people proudly someday.
Went from steel to plastic 🤣🤣

The real red royal guards
You see the guards in their colorful uniforms. I bet there are Swiss guards in civilian clothes as well, in the Vatican and when the Pope travels.
2:08 «Pretty cool» Yes, yes that is pretty cool, pretty cool Indeed 🧐👍
God bless you all
What would Queen's Royal Guard with minigun vs. Pope's Swiss Paladin wearing adamantium or graphene armor plating?
Swiss Guard use modern weaponry aswell, they are all retired Swiss Soldiers
2:08 pretty cool
Who dafaq authorized the plastic helmet
Someone who cares about the guards' comfort. If it can be made to look just as intended, why not?

THE SEAT OF POWER IS IN DANGER
If you didn’t need to be Swiss, there would be at least 100k soldiers
Why Christian from other countries cant have the honor to protect the pope?
Because in the medieval ages, the swiss mercenaries were seen as the best and most ferarless soldiers at the time. Well as long as they got payed. There was a saying at the time "no money no swiss".It was sadly not uncommon that brothers from the same village fought against each other in different armies.
Also a reason why swiss mercenaries were so successfull was, because they didnt play by the rules of the Knights (play unfair)
@SpaghettiandSauce You would expect an archaic institution to have archaic traditions.
Good question! It is a big conspiracy! Not conspiracy but a secret society with the hidden agenda like agenda 21. The seat of Pope originated in Switzerland. Roman Empire or Black Nobility as Papacy 13 bloodlines the big cartel bankers and democrats globalist. CIA that assassins a president that never listen to them (JFK) & Lincoln,.....
There is still the order of Malta.
There used to be other guards but they were disbanded
A lot of you need to educate yourself better on who they are and what they do
Educate us, Davis.

Lovely
Swiss a guard a group that willingly would sacrifice there lives for the pope:gives them plastic helmets
Lol
It's nice to look at as a tradition but committing your life to acting as a guard while in reality you have medieval weapons that could get all those guards killed with just one AK is not something I can fully understand
They always carry modern pistols even when they stand there with a halberd. So if needed, they can fire back pretty quickly. Additionally, in their armory they store modern rifles so in case of a major threat they can arm themselves more properly. But a pistol is a baseline. In case of more physical attack, the halberd can also be used.
They likely have a quick reaction force ready to rock wheneva
That is just their traditional costume. Most Swiss guards are in modern clothing armed with modern weapons.
easy to understand not wanting to wear a cast-iron helmet - goodness, I never knew that! But I need a closer look at the new plastic helmet.
God bless the swiss guard 🙏
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
it ain't much but its honest work
Why is not the battle of the 147 made a movie?
I thought they would be cursing like sailors to keep the pope safe against... whoever is scared of swearing.
I feel guilty cause I understood "swearing to protect the pope" as "SWEARING to protect the pope".
Wearing glasses?
I honestly thought of "cursing" when I read the word "swearing" so I was confused why cursing was required to protect the pope, hmmmm what a brain huh?
Update the uniform.
the uniform are traditional
look like fast food workers on break larping in the parking lot
Can other countries send people to guard the pope or just the Swiss?
Swiss
is those pole-arms sharp?
Very very sharp
How do i buy one?
You can get one online depends on where you live if you are in the US then you can definitely get a real one

@WallMight Gloria in Excelsis Deo!
Do they csrry machine gun?
Yes
"pretty coool"
thank god they didn't quote any of their swearwords 😳
Matthew 5:34
But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:
Assassin's creed 2 anyone?
Shouldn't they use modern weapons?
They do, but not on hand.
the Halberds are tradition and mostly for show. but of course they carry modern weapons too.
Yes they, the halberds and morion helmets are only for tradition
If I was the Pope, I'd prefer dudes in suits with submachine guns. But what do I know.
The Swiss guard are highly trained individuals, they are also trained to use firearms. To become a Swiss guard you have to be military trained and there are also many other strict requirements.
they carry glocks, sigs and mp7s
They have them too, all the time, rigged up and ready to go out of sight.
Not to be rude, but that would have some type of gun
They do have modern weapons in the armory.
The Italian millitary is on the outside anyway
only the ones standing in public use Halberds the rest of them use modern weapons
Swiss guards, why, ask why?
I hate the idea plastic helmet, they are not toy soldiers!
They switched to 3D printed helmets because the traditional metal ones can cause burns when standing out in sunlight for extended periods of time.
@@Sugar_Spike damn you climate change
Are those halberds real and are they authorized to use them
papa francisco's cute little army, how sweet, and the costumes are just adorable 💕💞 bang-bang!
Sweet but deadly
ᴛᴏᴍᴍy ᴠᴇʀᴄᴇᴛᴛɪ the soldiers in uniform are just because of tradition. There are swiss guards with guns to:)
Those whom need protection have something to hide.
So queen elizabeth, lady diana , same dalai lama had something to die....🙂🙂🙂
6 ft 4 inch swiss guard here
Next we'll be printing the "Guard"...., everything else is printed so why not.....!!
As an orthodox Christian, I really don't get it. There is no human that is selected by God for anything. There was one and He died 2000 years ago.
Don't be a Hypocrite, you guys have the Patriarch which works in the same way, he is not selected by God he is selected by a council to lead the Church
Juan is right. Y’all have an elected patriarch depending on which Orthodox Church you are from. , this is the same thing except there are not a dozen Roman patriarchs in schism with each other.
Hypocrisy
I'm sure the various Eastern Orthodox patriarchs needed/could have used security in times of persecution throughout history e.g. the Russian Orthodox Patriarchs in Soviet times
Sou Católico.
idem
Eu também irmão 👋✝️
Certainly the most outdated one too
Yes
Wym thats just their tradition, they have modern weapons in use too
i’m not religious but if becoming catholic meant wearing cool armour like that i think i might consider being catholic
Can the money not be used to help the poor? Specially the boys that have been abused by priests?
The catholic church is the biggest or atleast one of the biggest donaters to charity.
Also as the leader of the Catholic church the Pope is a big target for assassinations so requires the best protection
Didnt Jesus say not to swear (make oaths)🤔
Oath to office
Can people from other country be the Guard?
Only swiss who have completed swiss army basic training etc.
Plastic helmets...
Jesus is real god
Lmao
Jesus christ dont know if I can devote my life to one man's personal army hmmm
Men in Tights
I hate the new plastic helmet, it's kinda like a kids toy

What were they thinking when designing the costume😂
It was fashion back in the 16th century.
These are the colors of the medici family and jules repond designed the uniforms in 1914
Poor guy
It's a uniform not a costume and 2nd of all it's a very old style one as you can see.
I love their uniform.

Can They Use Guns And Wear Soldier Armor
They actually do, they are equipped with guns concealed under their clothing, and they carry them when the Pope travels

What if they all had pistols under their helmets tho 😳

The pope shouldn't be needing guards when you look at the bigger picture, is faith is suppose to guide him as Head of one of the biggest Faith in the world
