@chickenfist1554 off course it's the horse and guard fault, never theirs. They're on holiday, need pictures, pose and pats the horse. Grab the reins upset the horse they have no respect of these professional soldiers
@waxkopp Disneyland soldier yeah 💯%. They 0:52 don't see the discipline it takes to control the horse and then backyong the horse back into the box. 2) Most underestimate the horse, it has feeling too. They don't realize a horsej hooves or bit can cause damage. 3) they never seen a horse before that's exciting.
As an American citizen. The lack of respect for these solders and their duty is disgusting and shameful. These tourists need to learn the simple rules of respect and distance. Pisses me off to watch the ignorant tourists go and do all that.
The problem is not the sign. Let's say you are lost in a foreign land. Over there, in this weird looking shelter, there's a huge black four legged creature. A top of said creature, there's a weirdly dressed rider wielding a long spointy/stabby metallic thing. Why your first reflex is to say "Yup, I gonna pet that beast!" ?
I'd love to be a woman, i'd get praise for doing the bare minimum a soldier is required to do lol.. they even lower the requirements to join for me, like the ammo cases would get lighter somehow if i was asked to carry them for my fellow soldiers who desperately need it.. and if i couldnt carry them because i had lower requirements, then it'll be okay, because i'm the quota..
I wish they all responded like she does. The tourist would be put in their place. I feel for the Guards and the poor horse. Have to ask is the tourist dollar worth it?
i agree with you. and also, if they want to touch it, they should ask permission from the rider. those horses are working horses and trained for that purpose.
Unfortunately the pavement belongs to the local council and not the MOD. The local council are more interested in tourist revenue coming into their borough than anything else.
When I was a boy in the 1960s I am sure I was told by my Dad that “Interfering with the Sovereign’s Life Guard was a criminal offence” - boys of my generation wouldn’t have dared to have tugged on the reins!! Are these tourists crazy?
The horse who saw off the three teenagers , and the last man is the magnificent Monty ( Montgomery ) at 17.3 hands one of the biggest in the Blues and Royals .
Yes I dated a Blues and Royal in the 80s and was lucky enough to go in Knightsbridge Barracks Stables. They had a huge horse back then that had to go in a stall he was too big for a stable. Magnificent animals
If they're like the limited number of pros we have, attacking them or the sovereign will have the attacker discovering the horse is as much as a threat as the rider is. Once got selected for the september 'Throne speech' where the budget is announced by the king. You're taught to ride and must show proficiency to take party, but there's a cadre of professionals who are the actual escort. The horses are trained to kick, bite and trample as the rider indicates. Horses seem to have a good time doing it too, each time one came up you could just see the horse thinking "Yeah, my turn!" In such a case we were supposed to simply turn and ride off controlled as possible. We weren't part of the security response in case of an attack. Last thing they need is people with a couple weeks riding skill and no weapon trying to interfere.
Génération pas de respect , pas responsable de mes actes , génération selfi ! Mon papa me prendra un avocat , c était pas inscrit à la gauche du cheval et non plus en français que c était risqué , pathétique mais generationnel
When the police went to tell that man what he did wrong the man & woman both brushed the police man away. The police shouldn’t tolerate that & tell those two to leave the premises immediately. Kudos to the person who yelled out “ thank you for your service”.
Great compilation Buska, so many entitled tourists who seem to think that the rules don't apply to them. The guards certainly don't put up with their unacceptable behaviour.
The second last Guard, the female is my favourite. She has a good shout. Also when one of the Guards pushed his horse forward the parents should have moved back their children.
Noting how the man in the blue poloshirt and sunglasses thought it was funny when challenged by the guard for grasping the reins, suddenly stopped smiling when approached by the military police. Good!
Imagine what would happened if we walked up to an on duty police dog handler with his dog and grabbed the lead or the dog handlers jacket. You just wouldnt would you!
I hate to think of you learning how many horses the Household Cavalry have got killed since 1660. Must be in the hundreds of thousands. That horse is one of the lucky ones in the British Army.
I feel bad for the poor horses too! No horse should have to stamd still for long periods, bring gawped at like some kind of circus freak its not natural!
I do believe they have break time or rather exchange of animals like the same way K-9 units are treated, however the horses seems more bothered with the mouthpiece and the dumb tourists keep pulling the cord that holds that piece.
It’s their job and been doing it long before the tourists showed up. They aren’t there to be looked at, they are there doing what they are trained for. They are very well cared for and have great lives. They can bite and kick if they get annoyed, and often do with no consequences, and the guards have got their backs. If the horse didn’t trust the rider and didn’t like the situation it was in, believe me, they’d be off.
@@Melior_Traiano is that including not hearing??? I like the idea of being respect- and thankful to those soldiers. I guess he recognized it. It is not necessary (or allowed) that he answered!
Il faut beaucoup de patience aux Gardes ainsi qu'aux Policiers devant le manque de respect des touristes. Personnellement je pense que je perdrais patience face à certains ...... Énorme respect aux Militaires et aux Policiers.
People forget or don’t get the fact that those are war horses and those are highly trained soldiers and they are on duty. I have utmost respect for the King’s Guard!
People (tourists) don't understand that these guards are real soldiers. They are not play acting, they can and will mow you down if you don't move. Love your channel. Hello from Canada.
Perhaps it’s time for new signs? ‘Danger. These horses may kick or bite and while we don’t care if you get hurt, we don’t want to risk you hurting the horses.’ I don’t suppose anybody would read it though.
@@shellyamy4878 I get that… but still hate seeing it. People are horrible… they think upsetting an animal is ok & fun. Makes me sick. (As a reference, I also cry in zoos … they should be free.)
I’m English, grew up all over the world. I see this when I visit, and I’m not surprised at what trash walks through London. I don’t care how much money they haven. Respect for your restraint.
I love how the two cops at 1:32 were trying to reason with the idiots, clearly getting nowhere, walked away looking at the guard as if to say ‘do what you want we don’t care’ 😅
Captain Grammarpants called. Said the apostrophe is placed within "tourists" incorrectly. An apostrophe must either denote possession or missing letters... and NOTHING else.
TOTAL respect they really have to be so tolerant of total idiots is this what they have to deal with on a daily basics,,, they do deserve the highest respect
That last horse looks massive. Such a stunning creature. People need to understand that touching the reins, bridle, and head gear makes the bit in the horses mouth move, which causes the horse to move or get ready to move. If you lead the head, you lead the horse, the reins lead the head. These horses' mouths are very sensitive.
I am very happy that they install those stoppers to protect the guard,the horse, and the people who don't know their limits and keep approaching the horse. Thumbs up
Not from my experience of working in hospitality and American tourists 😂😂 the only decent easy goong one we had was a group of kids travelling round Scotland and they were so lo Ely they got free coffees and bacon rolls Al round.
@@kes78 Most patriotic Americans do appreciate the military. In America culture, its customary to thank soliders. The tourist here does represent some of our American culture and customs well. American tourists may behave badly in general, but they will still take the time to thank a solider before getting drunk and embarrassing themselves at a London restaurant lol...
@@patterdale4332 I agree, expressing our deep appreciation for the military is a uniquely American thing. I'm sure the Brits appreciate their solider as well, but they may not feel the need to always thank them. In America, when you see soldiers on the sidewalk, in a restaurant, or at an airport many people will approach them to thank them for their service. Most of us were taught to always thank a solider when you see them.
