don't know how these came up in my suggestions, but fascinating. Amazed at the constant number of people getting photos, can't be easy for the horses or the soldiers. hats off to them for their patience and discipline. proud of our armed forces.
I can’t believe how rude these people are to each other. They just get in front of people who are obviously trying to get a picture. They are so into themselves that they have to get their picture no matter what
These horse guards must be pretty pissed off as I am at these awful people. They have the patience of a saint but I wish they would shout more often at the rudeness of these Numbskulls. 😡😡
Come on folk let us preen,pout and pose....V signs a lean in,teapot impressions and not forgetting a push of the agitated horse for good measure.Dear lord what patience the guards have to tolerate all this whilst at work!
Barriers are not possible for 1 it's a public street 2 barriers would cause problems for horses and riders if the horse became unsettled and ran forward it would be dangerous .
@@kathellison8084 I'm wondering why it's not possible to paint red lines on the paving between horse and tourists, and prohibit crossing the line? That would be a safe solution for all. Too many people apparently don't understand that horses are wonderful but potential dangerous when startled.
It’s just a shame that they aren’t allowed to give a short sharp tap on the top of heads with the pummel of sword when people just don’t get the message or just totally disrespectful.
Having had horses all my life it makes me howl with laughter every time the horse moves they shriek like they’ve never seen a horse before and suddenly move away at speed - so much over reaction 🤣🤣
Their working and the tourists are an inconvenience. Sad, but they bring a hell of a lot of money into the country this unfortunately gives them a sense of entitlement. This behaviour wouldn't go down very well in a lot of other countries.
At 1:06 the lady in orange with a whilte head covering comes up to have her picture taken and the horse is fine - almost sleepy.. At about 1:20 ish, she's still standing there and the horse starts tossing his head, and continues to do so for the rest of the video. Is she wearing a scent that maybe irritated him? After she leaves he's still tossing his head and the tourists seem to be flock8ng toward him faster, possibly adding to his agitation. Kudos to the guard for doing what he can (using the horse) to move people away/back to try to settle his horse. These are not small animals! That horse stands nearly 6 foot (16.3 - 18 hands is the general size. 1 hand = 4 inches) at the withers (shoulder) and weighs probably 1500 lbs, so a head tossing irritated animal shouldn't be ignored.
People don't understand horses are very powerful animals ,horses are known as flight animals any sign of danger and their take off,even a little pony has a lot of power ❤
T If barriers are not going to be introduced to keep the tourists away from the horses then it's time to remove these guards for good now. They're not actually "guarding" anything in the true sense of the word, so for the wellbeing of the horses and the guards themselves I think it's time to end this craziness.
That horse was so stressed and the poor Guard i bet he/ she was cursing them ignorant disrespectful morons under their breath. This shouldn't be a loud surely the police could do something about these crowd's or put the horse and Guard behind a barrier so no-one can get near them and when they are changing the Guard maybe a trooper soldier could come and open the barrier its just a thought because i feel for our Military and their horse's. Thank you for your service Godbless you all ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Tourists be damned! Just put barriers up around the guards and be done with it! Even with the signs up, the still insist on touching the reins and the horse! And the way they crowd around them is insane!
It’s unbelievable that these ignorant people keep getting in the way of the Kings Guards on Horseback as the poor Horse have to put up with ignorant tourists it boils my blood 🩸 as they get too close to the Kings Guards unbelievable 🤬🤬🤬
It really is shocking at the disrespectful attitude from the public. They ought to stop them getting so close to the Guards.. They just think it's some sort of show put on for their amusement. I bet they wouldn't allow it in other countries..
That terrible large woman in the Green Pant Suit just snarled “move!” To the little girl then nearly pushed her out of the way. I really hope she isn’t the mother of this poor child. Big Bully! 👎
I just don't understand having to have your picture taken standing beside a horse and guardsman that are clearly trying to do their job. To show you were there? Then stand back a decent amount of distance away and take a picture of the guardsman and horse. Don't be a mindless, disrespectful jerk. I don't go into operating rooms and take pictures next to surgeons while they're operating. Good grief!
I have a feeling adjustments will be made. The little boy must have smelled like peanut butter or some other yummy food. The horse gave him a good sniff down looking for goodies.
Unreal the amount of brain cells being used 0% you could clearly see the horse was not comfortable with the amount of people around him let alone the guard and a great job she did too it boggles my mind to think that people can assume it's ok to harass them both and it's ok to do it how would they like it if someone got up in their space leaning on them and touching them it wouldn't be real nice hey simple rules read the sign and respect them 👍❤
The flies were on his face near his eyes. All he needed was someone to rub his head and then he would be fine. Only he wouldn't because they would come back. Soldier realized and warned people away.
Are people really that dense that they cannot see that all of their antics make the horse feel fearful, AND can these same adults are teaching the joung people that they are entitled to do what they want and don't minds the signs.
They were so rude. The woman in the grey puffer her daughter or granddaughter was trying to take a photo of her for ages. She to be fair only moved closer in the end because people just kept standing in front of her and also between her and horse. She was trying at first to get a photo at a respectful distance. If I had been there I probably would have said something to the other tourists. They needed someone assertive there to ask the others to wait. So many rude self entitled people in such a short video uggh.
the horse got a bit unsettled and people getting in the way and standing too close to horse while guard trying to calm horse down so stupid tourist too many people crowding the horse
Still can't believe these idiot parents allowing small children so close to the horses, they can see that a horse sometimes flicks its head without warning that could really hurt an adult, but it could kill a child.
These clueless prats are really upsetting this poor horse
I cant believe the powers that be allow this to go on ,i really felt for the young guard ❤
They should be moved on by a soldier.
@@Fishhead217 It's a shame they can't make the same $ if they stop letting idiots touch the horses and crowding the guard.

Hear hear.

No self-awareness, whatsoever! 😳
100%. Self absorbed people.
@@windonthevalley Seriously? They are full of self-awareness; they just aren't aware of anyone or anything else around them.
These horse guards must be pretty pissed off as I am at these awful people.
They have the patience of a saint but I wish they would shout more often at the rudeness of these
Numbskulls. 😡😡
They are not allowed to shout anymore…Spoilsports..Not worth watching anymore😢
Good grief. This poor Guard has hands full from the clearly agitated horse from crowd.
It’s getting beyond a joke now, something has to be done, too many people lacking respect or common sense now.
Come on folk let us preen,pout and pose....V signs a lean in,teapot impressions and not forgetting a push of the agitated horse for good measure.Dear lord what patience the guards have to tolerate all this whilst at work!
I love the " influencer " type , ridiculous poses . What gives with the V signs and Egyptian style posed hands anyway.
Those stupid hand signs are ridiculous. The horses definitely don't appreciate them and waving arms.
Look how well those little children behave..Shame their parents can’t do the same.
Time to put up some kind of barrier around the guard and horse. AND some of these people must really stink to the horses.

@@Randomequestrian-pm4hl They don't pay attention to the signs so I seriously doubt if they'd pay attention to painted lines on the pavement.
I so wish they would do what the mounted police does, for crowd control: let the horse step on people’s feet.
Good for the guard, not allowing people to touch the horse! I'm glad to see a guard who really knows how to take care of her horse! Kudos to her!
And they still dont move
They should be able to tell tourists to get back and not come near,
It’s just a shame that they aren’t allowed to give a short sharp tap on the top of heads with the pummel of sword when people just don’t get the message or just totally disrespectful.
I'd pay a million bucks to see that, lol! (Oh how the guards WISH that they could do that, eh?)
Quick poke with the Sharp end
These people act like anoying flies. The keep coming back after being pushed away
Having had horses all my life it makes me howl with laughter every time the horse moves they shriek like they’ve never seen a horse before and suddenly move away at speed - so much over reaction 🤣🤣
Good to see new signs up saying not to touch the reins and the guard not allowing people to toucb the horse.
These guards are only put there for the rude tourists.
Their working and the tourists are an inconvenience. Sad, but they bring a hell of a lot of money into the country this unfortunately gives them a sense of entitlement. This behaviour wouldn't go down very well in a lot of other countries.
Stubborn Stubborn people
Can you imagine going to any of these peoples jobs and just posing with one of these people without permission? It’s so thoughtless for all involved.
Very hard to watch. Poor horse is upset. Very rude tourists
Never one ounce of respect for these soldiers....disgusting behaviour

Why don't they paint a circle on sidewalk around the horse and tourist cannot get closer than the circle?
People don't understand horses are very powerful animals ,horses are known as flight animals any sign of danger and their take off,even a little pony has a lot of power ❤
We should start a petition
T

That poor bloody horse, Half wits are loose in the U.K.
They always have been.
What was that woman in green top @ 4:22 trying to do...Push the poor horse over!!!
That was a good photo,they didn't stress the gard or horse❤ well done the couple who stood in between. ❤
The horse hates being touched
That horse was so stressed and the poor Guard i bet he/ she was cursing them ignorant disrespectful morons under their breath. This shouldn't be a loud surely the police could do something about these crowd's or put the horse and Guard behind a barrier so no-one can get near them and when they are changing the Guard maybe a trooper soldier could come and open the barrier its just a thought because i feel for our Military and their horse's.

Superb job of managing the crowd to stay back & stop touching the horse!
Tourists be damned! Just put barriers up around the guards and be done with it! Even with the signs up, the still insist on touching the reins and the horse! And the way they crowd around them is insane!
They need to put some kind of gate up in front of the guards and horses. This is beyond ridiculous!
Not possible it's a public in in Whitehall , any form of barrier would be potentially dangerous to horse and trooper .
It’s unbelievable that these ignorant people keep getting in the way of the Kings Guards on Horseback as the poor Horse have to put up with ignorant tourists it boils my blood 🩸 as they get too close to the Kings Guards unbelievable 🤬🤬🤬
Ridiculous situation that these Guards and horses are put in. Such rude entitled people
It really is shocking at the disrespectful attitude from the public. They ought to stop them getting so close to the Guards.. They just think it's some sort of show put on for their amusement. I bet they wouldn't allow it in other countries..
Where’s Arnie?
These people are not contenders for models
Police should step in as ideots could cause a problem for others
It's obvious that the horse is agitated and wants to be left alone...why are people so dense?
Anything for a photo... Gives me the sick!!
they think working animals are machines, clueless individuals.
They don't care about anything but themselves so others don't exist.
That terrible large woman in the Green Pant Suit just snarled “move!” To the little girl then nearly pushed her out of the way. I really hope she isn’t the mother of this poor child. Big Bully! 👎
With this amount of stupidity, it’s a miracle we’ve survived… so far…
These stupid tourist have upset the horse but they still have to have that photo.
I see the new signs are back up again.
I think they should make new ones that say. " Do not touch the horse or guard"
Não percebem que o cavalo está irritado!!!!!!
What part of, “I’m going to bite you!! I’ve had enough!” don’t these tourists get?
I just don't understand having to have your picture taken standing beside a horse and guardsman that are clearly trying to do their job. To show you were there? Then stand back a decent amount of distance away and take a picture of the guardsman and horse. Don't be a mindless, disrespectful jerk.

Very rude people butt right in front of others
No one should be aloud near ! 4 FT in front zone >
I have a feeling adjustments will be made. The little boy must have smelled like peanut butter or some other yummy food. The horse gave him a good sniff down looking for goodies.

I think the horse was getting too crowded! Too many people around him!
Respect the country your in or get out.
In a video posted after this one.I noticed the new signs were gone then along came a soldier and put the old signs back up . Anyone else see that.
Probably an older video..the signs were repainted.
It's all about what they want regardless if someone else was there first like that lady in grey puffer jacket
A stiff fine might help
it is obvious that the horse is agitated and yet thry insist on patting it’s face , so cruel. It’s like a power trip… I’m here and I will stroke you…😡
The flies were on his face near his eyes. All he needed was someone to rub his head and then he would be fine. Only he wouldn't because they would come back. Soldier realized and warned people away.
Way too close
"Con comme un touriste".
Why don't they shout anymore? Has it been stopped?
does anyone know how often the horses have to go through this - is it every day?
Are people really that dense that they cannot see that all of their antics make the horse feel fearful, AND can these same adults are teaching the joung people that they are entitled to do what they want and don't minds the signs.
Take the damn photo!!!
I cant watch it
