STAND BACK! You Have to SEE THIS YOURSELF! 

The horses are! These guard still live in 15 century! And if the guard want to look like fools or dressed up Muppets that's their choice but these horses didn't choose for this!

P

Nuts

Stupidity comes in all sizes and colors.

Guards and their horses need Guards, sad, so many jackasses show up

How about the ones that have their shield on their back with their back to the horse🤪

A nie pomyślisz o koniach że one też się męczą tak stac bez ruchu ulica ludzie !

These are indeed excellent horsemen but the horses are equally amazing I did a google search once on the horses and it said they must be capable of carrying a 13 stone person plus 4 stone of uniform.

@@Maggie_1957 wow that is alot of weight to carry !!

Many of these soilders train to ride and control their mounts without the use of reins. The standard of training is very high for both human and horse. You have to remember that these horses are not just trained to stand, but also to charge and it's a tough job to keep them calm with the amount of movement, noise, etc going on around them. I had the privilege of riding with mounted recruits in Berlin, many years ago as a teenager whilst my father was posted there. I wasn't treated any differently and believe me you knew you had worked hard. They then had to go back to stable duties and cleaning the tack, etc, I got to go home and rest. Absolutely have the highest respect for those that met the standard and do this job.

@@dawnclampin4449thank you for this insight.

Horses don’t just throw themselves around !!! There is ALWAYS a reason. Horses are prey animals and their instinct is usually flight over fight. In the wild, the stallion is the protector of the heard. The most predictable thing about horses is they are not predictable. Please have respect for these magnificent horses. They have a lot of power and should always be respected.

Right 🤗

Whack!!!!!

Dame right

Indiana USA. Hi Texas.

She's highly trained

She is a pro. What a statement.

That horse is trying to communicate that he is NOT a happy camper at this time! The guards need to give him a good going over to see if there is something off. He may have a thorn or burr sticking him somewhere.

Not a happy horse!!

She is a professional soldier who rides the horse as part of her job.

And that’s okay we all have a moment like that. You can only hope both won’t get hurt. But yes I have a great respect for the guard to control that beautiful horse .and sometimes I think the ground is slippery witch is a little dangerous. Don’t know if people have noticed it tho

@@justbystander770 magnificent and well-behaved as they are, each with its own temperament, they are still horses, and are there for whatever the hour brings. That horse, for some reason, was temperamental from the time it was on camera. Maybe that horse’s day had come around to be left alone?😂 In my observation, of horses, guards, police, and tourists, tourists have the highest number of deportment marks! In fact, horses and guards put up with far more than I would in their trying circumstances. Clearly more. In fact, I’ve never seen them at fault, and I have the highest respect and enjoyment in both and watch several times daily from across the pond. I wish my childhood friend were still alive to watch. She was a horse riding instructor and an accomplished rider, with her own stables, etc. I hope you’ve been able to see them in person!

@@littlebrookreader949 did I made a complaint? I agree with you it’s the disrespect most tourists show and think it’s a circus attraction. It’s not they are on duty so have a job to do. The ignorance of most is disgusting. I love horses owned on myself , a spicy one but I knew him and his behavior. Some don’t like crowds surrounding them and some love it. But it doesn’t mean they can have a bad day. I have great respect of both guards and horses. And I can watch them for hours but sadly you get the annoying tourist with it. I would not mind to place the tourists behind a fence .they still can take pictures if they like. The only thing is they are not on it themselves. Or they can buy a postcard. But my opinion from all I have seen leave those magnificent horses alone and if you want a picture approach them calmly but don’t touch. But that’s my opinion. And I have seen them but it was long ago. We never came on the thoughts to walk over touch them or take a picture with them. We behaved. I have seen on the square the change of guards. It’s a awesome view. We were lucky to be there. And it was a journey I will never forget.

@@justbystander770 Hello again! I don’t understand your question. I thought your comment was excellent. I happened to wake up and saw your reply. I hope this is a simple misunderstanding. We are obviously both in awe of the horses and guards, although you seem to have far more experience than myself. It’s 2:33 AM here, and I’m normally asleep at this time. I wish you well, and I hope every good blessing for you and your family.

@@littlebrookreader949 I apologize I misunderstood, sorry 😞 this isn’t my language of birth . I did agree with what you said. Sorry look after yourself and your family 🙏🙏🕯🕯greetings from the Netherlands.

He is called Corporal of Horses and is an NCO, above the rank of Sergeant I believe.

@@maybarnard1088 The Corporal of Horses (CoH) is the same rank as a Sgt. in the Household Cavalry. They do have the insignia of 3 chevrons over a crown. I believe The Household Cavalry are the only regiments that still have Sgts.

I do believe ,,,yes❤

deaf at 71 but still understand hand & arm movements. BC🇨🇦

And I would be right behind you !!!😮🇬🇧

So would I!!

They are 'Rubber Neckers' ... The same type of people who stare at road accidents 😵‍💫🤔 Although what more can that distressed horse do to make them understand he wants back to own herd safety ... So distressing just to watch 😢😤

I've often wondered that.

They simply don't care or don't know how to read a horse's cues. Not always but typically watching a horse's ears will guide you. Not that they know what to look for or even would. I'm amazed when a horse nearly trounced them and they giggle and go right back for more of the same. Smh

Yes 💗

❤

I was going to comment on that, but you beat me to it. And both he and the Guard did a great job of trying to soothe the horse.

Yes and didn’t it work !, i was watching closely & that horse was definitely calmed down by the officer, when the officer moved away the horse became unsettled again but the officer was watching and reassured that horse. Real interesting horsemanship.👍

Sao tolos sem e ducasao que coisa feia de viam por uma placa a fastense nao ci a pro cime paga multa

I feel sorry for the horse. He sure as anything is saying I DO NOT WANT TO BE HERE TODAY 4:22

Army Officer not police

@@victoriadriscoll3931 MOD police

The reason horse wants, is his sugar when he is calm. If he doesn't get it, he shows his foot ballet.

I agree

What an arrogant set of assumptions about these wonderful horses, their human handlers and the entire King’s Guard. I am so grateful for these wonderful creatures that show us a bit of ancient England.

You makea good point, in this country we rareley say thank you for your service as often as americans do , in the states they can serve e a year and. be called a vet

@@Gogetemscoobie I’m Australian… and yes I’ve noticed via RU-vid videos that Americans do say “thank you for your service “ a lot, hopefully it’s a sign of respect…🇦🇺🤎🤎

I think it’s only Americans that say “ tHank you for you.r service”

Amen to your comment. I wrote mine before I read it. Bc this video bothered me so much. I guess these people don't realize that they are real military. I don't know. I can tell you that There are Americans that Don't. I did. But I'm guessing the Average doesn't know that. 🙄. And they don't care to know it.

These horses are trained for noise , thats not the problem .

It’s really unbelievable how tourists are behaving. I feel so sorry for these poor animals as well as for the soldiers.😡

Why point out the guard was female, I thought we were beyond the sex thing.

He's there to see if they should bring the horses in. They are not too happy with the protest.

He new police officer was protecting him and helping

Stupid protesters, some of them do not even know for what or whom they are protesting for. RESPECT FOR KING´S GUARDS AND THEIR BEAUTIFULL MAJESTIC KING'S GUARD ´S HORSES 👏👏👏👏👏👏❤

She is female!

C'est un humain comme les autres et les chevaux ils sont à plaindre les gardes certes ils sont rien d'autre à faire soyons plutôt unique et simplicité ralebole les riches du profit et les pauvres la misère

​@@annickchipie9241Notice the Campaign Medals.

Amen

They are regularly turned out to grass in Melton Mowbray .

Only for 6 weeks per year....😢

Horses are slaves

@@diapricea4888those horses are Not slaves… they are pampered and fussed over… their coats are kept clean and brushed… their hooves are kept trimmed and shoed… they are loved deer.y by their stable keepers and their fellow soldiers…

Yes. Also hear that those nearer the coast are taken for run and frolic on the beaches. Saw video of them enjoying themselves rolling over in the sand and run ing alone the shore with the sea covering their hooves. Lovely sight to see.

She seemed okay, till that grabby guy came up @ 30:28 ish. Then came Back again.

Just a question? Do they need to have those bits in their mouths? He looks so unhappy with it.

London is beautiful’. Hope to see it in person some day!

Shiny coat doesn't mean they are well taken care of! Just means they are in stalls not stables so they don't get dusty,they are brushed,and they don't get turned out so no dirt,then they see an hour of sunlight per day so they stay black,but you should see the news from yesterday finally the truth is coming out about animal abuse,all I just said plus they get dirty water and have dirty stalls!

I agree , they look clean and shiny, but I still think it's torture to have them standing all day out there like an idiot... A horse or human was not meant to just stand there for hour....

In this era of social media too much personalisation could lead to video stalking - the last thing they need.

With that awful screeching noise in the area I’m not surprised that beauty is protesting, so would I.

I'm not sure that serving members of the military would appreciate their personal details being shared on these uploads.

I know what you mean but its to respect the guards privacy.

Well just the names of the gorgeous horses would do

Apparently the crowd lacked anyone who thought like us. They should have a " common sense day"

Bc they are selfish people and apparently never taught basic respect for others.

Hi. I love Brasil from Snow and Curt on RU-vid. Beautiful country.

I hope that one day you will achieve your dream. At least you are able to travel the world through internet.

I always assumed they had a 'horsey' background! Kudos to them then for learning to do all things military as well as learning to ridd and look after horses.

The mauling is the worst

​@@user-lz6yz5zy8t I don't know. Being forced to stand in my own "droppings" for hours, while being mauled by complete strangers is not how I would really choose to spend my time.

No English understanding

Cannot believe the guy picking up the money thrown into the fountain. I am sure this is not allowed as the money collected later for charity!?

Ja, ist doch zum Kotzen, London ist groß genug um woanders Demos zu machen

Hermoso animal sólo quería demostrar que no se sentía a gusto que estaba muy estresado

Entre los 2 viejos parados al lado y tocandolo mas el padre con la niña en brazos..realmente el caballo debería salir trotando...pobre animal y pobre jinete

Try reaching them!😂

How would city folk know that? A high percentage of them have likely never seen a horse before. Step down off your high horse. 😉
