HE MESSED AROUND THEN THIS HAPPENS! | Horse Guards, Royal guard, Kings Guard, Horse, London, 2024

[@atedogs]

I don t think anyone should be able to touch or come near the horses. For one thing I don't believe they are trained to endure people's constant touching poking and crowding them. Being bitten is no joke. They can shred a shoulder or remove a chunk of flesh quite easily. Being kicked is life altering been there done that soft arena saved me but never got on a horse again. I would thank the guards maybe it's not done but they deserve respect.

[@lizbarakat2191]

I’m positive that the guards would appreciate you thanking them… They’re not allowed to speak on duty as a general rule, but I’ve seen them occasionally say a few words to people who are extra polite… Sorry to hear that you were injured and I’m glad to know that you at least had a soft landing…

[@ezlow1065]

Well said!

[@masonyoutube7347]

What you think doesn't,'*t matter. If they didn't want the horses touched they wouldn't't allow it. They are exploiting these horses for the sake of tourism.

[@anjou6497]

​​@@masonyoutube7347 Yes, there is a good argument in that. It's not strictly NECESSARY to have the horse guards out there. It is a huge boost to filling the tourism coffers, but i see nothing wrong with some traditions. Unfortunately there will always be some nitwit annoying them. 🤔

Is it me, or do others feel that there should be more restrictions on the crowds around the Horse Guards? I don't think people realise that these are soldiers who fight for their country, who protect their royalty, who can fire a gun if necessary!!

[@CaballeroBC.]

I agree yet they know it's a customary presentation from the past of the old guard, and not a show of true military might to defend against 21st century enemies. They just can't with what they're armed with. Ridicule of anyone's culture and customs is outright ignorant, yet I'm sure they are well aware of exposure to idiots and knowingly take on the customary roles. The armed police do a good job taking care of the jerks!

[@janetcarbone4213]

In full agreement. Just finished my post a couple of minutes ago

You’re not alone. These crowds of ignorant and disrespectful people need to be kept at a distance. It’s seriously disrespectful to the guard and distressing to his or her mount

[@christinesabel9826]

It's true!

[@jjfoo32]

The guards & horses are magnificent! But I don’t understand why people on vacation insist on acting like they are in some way superior to the host country, therefore they can do/say whatever they like. You certainly wouldn’t walk up to a mounted police officer & grab the reigns of his horse. If you notice when the horse refuses to box then another guard comes & takes the reins & guides him back in. Taking the reins gives you control of the horse. So these idiots walk up and think they’re entitled to grab the reigns of the King’s Guard? If the King’s Guard is meant to be taken seriously, then they should ban tourists from the area.

[@GitteRittaNielsen-ke7wu]

It's sad to see how disrespectful people are towards the Guards. They treat it like it's a show. These Guards are soldiers and are there to protect the Royal family and they deserve respect! I hope they change the rules, so people can't get so close to them anymore. It's clear to see it stresses the horses. And people just laugh.

The patience they have is admirable, having to deal with such disrespect.

I assume he does not know what respect is, therefore, does not know when it's missing.

You got it wrong. The guy with the camera is Buska in the Park, who has had his own channel for a long time, and is one of the only KZbinrs who educates ignorant visitors and tells them off when they’re being disrespectful. He told the crowd in this video, “You have to leave.”
