Look at the kings guard obviously he is having a meltdown to the untrained eye they see nothing. He’s talking and has facial expressions someone or something has made him lose all military bearing. People do not understand how hard it is to just stand there and put up with idiots all day. Why do you think soldiers are so nice to the kids? One it’s a relief to deal with kids other than adults and two they’re planting the seeds of respect that will ultimately benefit future soldiers in one way or the other.
The Royal British Legion's long-held estimate is that somewhere between 3 and 6 per cent of homeless people have an armed forces background, but there are concerns that some homeless veterans are rendered “invisible” by the way statistics are collected. Along with veterans who have mental health or substance abuse problems, veterans with few financial assets or who don't have family members they can turn to for support may find themselves on the street. If you can get help when you come back you can risk your life for our failing country or else you’re going to have to end up homeless because the country doesn’t care about you 🤷♂️.
This was said perfectly! After watching through the first time I definitely was confused where his “meltdown” was but this makes a lot more sense now. Of course a king’s guards meltdown isn’t gonna be like a civilians! I know it seems simple but thank you for clearing it up for some of us quick thinkers 😅

Its his job to do that. The guard isn't allowed to move. It's the other guys job to check how they're doing, keep them hydrated, fix their uniform if it gets messed up by wind/tourists etc
do you really think that?? Isn't it more because the supervisor has to review the state of the guard, the posture, the uniform, the weapon and after confirming, fix the imperfections and small imbalances?
my brother was a kings guard and people used to wait and wait with their cameras for him to change arms, as soon as they put their camera down to rest their arms he would change arms real fast so they miss it lol
Marine Corps Vet.here. It is not only painful to stand so long but when your circulation is cut off and your legs go numb it's face down before the flag . But you're lucky if you fall on your back. Bravo and kudos to this young Soldier. Salute!!
Semper Fi! Thank you for your service! My father was a Marine in the Korean war. I only say "was" because he passed in 2021. Again, thank you so much for your service.
As an American, i think of these guards, as i do our own standing guard over the unknown soldier, with lots of respect. These folks worked hard to make it to these positions, and that needs to be acknowledged with respect.
@@MandatedCupcake an action that benefits you. Killing somebody is also an action…doesn’t take a genius to understand the message. Nice try being a smartass though, dimwit.

No matter how ‘hard’ you think you are … kings guard , marine , seal, Gurkha Soldier or otherwise …. You have my respect even in the human moments you have or need :)
why does the kings guard hae your respect spepcifically? they are not there to help the common people if something happens. No kings guard will leave his post to help you if you are getting robbed or unalived right in front of him.

@@TheRealProdeigiIts not the head of state that puts these regulations in place its the officers in these regiments that put these regulations in, some of these men probably do it for the status as well as being garrisoned in places like the tower of london or windsor castle or something as well as the nice looking uniforms and if they do it enough they know they can reach an unmatched level of discipline
This. They're trained to ignore itches and twitches and ticks. I'd go into full on Tourette's meltdown after standing stock still for that long, and I don't even have Tourette's.
I hear ya man, I’ve stood motionless on a parade field for many hours before. Summerall Field, Ft Myer, Va. in the heat of summer, in the pouring rain as well as the freezing cold as sleet accumulates on you. Make certain you’re hydrated beforehand and don’t lock your knees! We called it Surfing Summerall because it looked like you were catching a tasty wave as you slowly lost consciousness before you smooth face planted only to be drug off field by your feet by an NCO behind the formation and replaced by an Alternate. Word on the street was if that happened to you, you’d find yourself at Camp Liberty Bell at the DMZ within the next 72 hours to live out the rest of your enlistment.
Sat next to a 94 year old royal military soldier on a plane once, he told me all about his time as a kings guard, people had no respect for his job and he only wanted to rip them apart but he couldn’t. He such a nice guy I can’t imagine how cruel people can be. Along with that he saved 19 men’s life in France, dudes a legend. His last name was Reilly or something I wish I could look him up.
I dont know about England, but the kings guards here are paid the same as a soldier, it is part of their military service, but only a few selected ones are selected to the work as you have to meet certain physical acquirements.
It happens when you stand like that. Soldiers in long ceremonies and can't move, your feet start to numb out and circulation in the legs start affecting you cause sometimes the knees lock. You learn to deal with it by shifting weight in your feet and breathing exercises. Big ups to him got being there for hours. I've seen dudes pass out for just doing 30 minutes locked in that position.
@Chris-dm1je yeah it's a natural reflex to preserve energy. It is also a habit that gets beat out of you if you go through boot camp. If drill instructors notice you doing that in formation your ass gets chewed.
As an American I completely understand and agree,I heard American tourist were calling him derogatory names and I'm really sorry we have a bunch of assholes over here,I apologize for their ignorance.
I used to tour in a choir, occasionally our concerts lasted longer than 2 hours, usually with an intermission. We were told not to lock our knees or we would faint. Also, we were old boys/young teens, so I'm sure that was on our side. I hate standing still. I'll walk all day if I have to, but not moving.... oof

@@johnboyne1 nope. Their guns are without bullets (unless there is a serious threat to the monarch) this is purely ceremonial. & By proper soldering I mean out in the field, peacekeeping/war etc.

@@KyleMoore-l1b people don't realise troop rotation, two or three tours of duty then one back home in UK for ceremonial, commemorative and official appointments and duties.
Absolutely I'm proud of our soldiers they should be respected. They do a job that most people won't do they deserve respect they've earned it. God bless our soldiers
People need to realise these soldiers are the same men who fought in Afghanistan and Iraq etc. they perform these ceremonial duties in addition to being combat soldiers. They’re not a joke, they’re not a gimmick.
The reason for the face expression is he is saying something to the other gentleman but your unable to hear him or read his lips. It's a tactic they use so people don't know what's being said.
They are on duty 24-48 hours. They have sentry duty (what you're looking at) 2 hours on 4 hours off. If you can't stand for 2 hours then take a 4 hour break you probably should seek medical attention. People stand at registers for 8 hours a day every day.
This is why at the Tomb of The Unknown Soldier; the guards make routine walks and routes. It helps with standing for long periods of time. Those micro breaks inbetween steps make a huge difference
But the guards at the tomb are allowed to correct the public when they step out of line and become a** wipes. The Royal guards aren't allowed to respond in any way.
They are allowed to move and you can see them doing this every so often. I think it's limited to 15 steps every 20 minutes or something like that. I'm sure someone will be more knowledgeable than me about exactly what's allowed. He doesn't look very well!
There's so much pressure on these young men to be perfect all the time. I hope there's no idiot who asks him if he's "the one who had a meltdown" to get a reaction.
@@SeminarioMAEimagine, people talking to you, taunting you, getting to close to you all the time and you can’t do nothing . I know for a fact that happened to you, you would answer back with violence or something. It’s a mental challenge
Imagine expecting a killing machine to do customer service at a ice cream shop. That’s what I’ve always imagined these men to feel like. They deserve so much respect 🫡
The Guards are recognized for being sentinel soldiers, so it can make it difficult for them to perform certain actions, such as adjusting their helmet for example. Luckily, members of the Police or Army are usually positioned nearby to provide support or reinforcements, whether it be keeping tourists away or adjusting their uniform to maintain its perfection. What a great team.
@@tonygallinal basically no terrorist is going to walk up to them are they😂😂 actually think about what they do , everyone knows where they are , they wear the most unconventional clothing for combat , they look like mugs , for tourists and they get to trample all over ur children if u get in the way of them , protecting a family full of pedos just remember that not “ sentinel guards”😂😂😂
There was an incident and guard is actually getting inspected and readjusted his clothing. The cue to military guard is the non response of the royal guard indication he is in command and ok else he says relieve me of my command
Exactly. You are the only one who sees this. Everyone else thinks he's angry. Nope he's about to pass-out. Could be from heat exhaustion or drugs. His facial expressions could also be mistaken for methamphetamines or cocaine. I've seen alot of drug addicts with that same face.🤷🏻♂️
You got this young man. Meltdowns don't always result in screaming, crying and throwing a tantrum. But he is having one, people need to be more respectful and realize that these guards are doing their job and their not theire for tourists amusement.
they don't it's pretty clear how hard being a royal guard is wayyyyy b4 you ever join. some people just aren't made for it and some people are. this man's composure and determination for his job deserves massive respect nit misunderstanding why they do this and have too.
allora dovrebbero smetterla di fare richiesta perche hey! nessuno glielo impone. È in lavoro come in altro, oltretutto ben retribuito. Sicuramente faticoso ma non è di certo schiavismo. È come lamentarsi se, una volta arruolato, ti mandano in missione e torni a casa senza una gamba. Mica te l'ha ordinato il medico di arruolarti. Sono solo cazzi tuoi, tu l'hai voluto e tu devi prendere il bello ed il brutto. Mai capirò infatti il lavoro del militare. Le guerre non dovrebbero esistere tra una specie che si proclama razionale, intelligenza, autoconsapevole. Siamo solo dei coglioni noi umani. L'umanità intesa cone condizione sociologia, non esiste. Siamo solo animali con la voglia di pisciare in testa al prossimo. Però a differenza di paesi comunisti o fascisti e/o Arabi, noi Occidentali viviamo tutto sommato bene. Le paghe in Italia sono basse, ma la schiavitù vera e propria non esiste. Dobbiamo guardare al peggio e pensare di stare tutto sommato bene. Perché "il meglio" non arriverà mai. Fatto sta che quella guardia guadagna più di me senza fare un cazzo. Ok è dura stare in i piedi tutto il giorno nella stessa posizione ma, quelli vanno in pensione anticipata. Le guardie reali sono tutte giovani se ci fai caso. Ed in Inghilterra avere un curriculum del genere, ti apre indubbiamente porte e portoni.
I was told by someone that from time to time Royal guards are tested like this. To check the reactions and make sure they are fit for the job. Maybe this is just one of those times.
I hate that I knew immediately it’s called a “tassel” a useless information that I don’t use but I’ll forget basic things sometimes. Like it took me a couple seconds to remember what I ate last night 😂
Bravo to the british army? are you nuts? Being an underage tepich weaver in a sweatshop is tough. But these jumping jacks have chosen their own fate! So anyone who joins the British army while they are still occupying their peaceful neighbouring country really has no moral compass. That doesn't make it any better if you make your job pointlessly difficult.
They can use lethal force , but they usually hold tourists to a different standard and give them WAY to many warnings. I’ve seen videos of them giving people exactly what they deserve . These men are to be treated with nothing but respect. Also, if anyone patriotic sees you harassing them, its a good way to get your bell rung . Those who get away with harassing them are VERY fortunate Its the equivalent of walking up to a marine and calling him silly names. You’ll see all 50 stars he stands for That being said They are doing this as a sign of respect . Not to harass Looks like he was upset before these people stepped in to comfort him

And people wonder why the police and other security personnel have to intervene, and why this young man looks stressed out? There's nothing wrong with him! He had a very normal, human reaction to an extraordinary situation. So, please respect these men... and simply anyone.

There was an incident and this was straight after. The soldier was fixing his hat hair thingy and that's why they apologized and said what ever else they said to him and put the chain back up.
Such a wholesome (and true!) comment ❤ He does look sick and maybe the soldier in fatigues was trying to talk to him / ask him if he’s alright without making it too obvious, he pretended he had to fix his hat (or whatever that’s called!) 😊
I tied my cadet sergeant to his bed with bungee ropes as a joke, and the whole platoon and myself had to stand on parade for 4 hours with out moving a muscle for a punishment. If one of us moved they added a extra 30 minutes. It’s pure discomfort and your mind starts crumbling after a few hours. Running 10 miles with your full gear on is golden compared to standing for hours on end.
I've never been in the military, so i can't say if your sergeant just had a lousy sense of humor (?) or if you were committing what us civilians call a "sex crime", but fyi on the civvie side you get a lot worse punishment than a bit of standing or running, its called prison (you might know it as the brig?)...so you may want to knock it off when you inevitability end up back on the side of the masses who can't just duke it out w AK's on a level playing field, but: 💯 I thank you for your service, regardless; it is sacrifices by people like you that make this country great, and keep us safe from foreign threat: if no one has told you yet today, I appreciate you 🤝 🫡 ("it" behavior referring to any sort of kidnapping, false imprisonment, assault and/or battery of any degree, riding roughshod over any "no means no" boundaries = accusing someone of not being able to take a joke falls flat when you are the only one laughing)... ...and if none of this applies to you and you are a just a gentle soul with a wink wink sense of humor, so much the better for humankind, my good sir! hopefully this bit of advice, while not applicable to you, will find its intended audience by happenstance some future day, and inspire a change of attitude or behavior for the better, if one has a mind to read what is arguably an off-topic novella in a youtube comment section... ... until then, namaste 🙏 👍✌️👨✈️💂🏼♂️🙋♀️ and good day 🌄
So gentle the way the soldier put the horse hair straight on the helmet of his fellow guard. They all need protecting from the ones who go to torment them 🚧
Looks as though they looked out for the youngster. Straightened his appearance looked him in his eyes. Then gave him some needed words of strength and encouragement. People helping people it’s what’s it’s all about.
Well said. It's ceremonial to be sure but it stands for more than a weird ritual. Not saying it's not a weird ritual. As an American, we are certainly full of our own military traditions that can seem to make no sense but once you take a moment to appreciate the history of every movement, every portion of the uniform, and or his acceptance of the duty and his relief of duty. One begins to feel a bit more weight of past souls giving to the ideal. Congratulations on a wonderful military tradition while not imposing said tradition on the public. Good on ya'll.
@abiA5 said that it's because tourists were being utterly disrespectful, and the officer and soldier stepped in to offer support and to make the tourists leave❤
He is either mad bc someone came to close or touched him (which would also be a reason why they closed that area and why they fixed his helmet) or its the heat of the summer paired with the thick coat and all that clothing. Most people dont understand how hard it is to stand and walk around in the heat with all that on.

When you have to stand still for extended periods, you get as many fidgets out and itches scratched as you can when you get the chance.
This. They're trained to ignore itches and twitches and ticks. I'd go into full on Tourette's meltdown after standing stock still for that long, and I don't even have Tourette's.
I hear ya man, I’ve stood motionless on a parade field for many hours before. Summerall Field, Ft Myer, Va. in the heat of summer, in the pouring rain as well as the freezing cold as sleet accumulates on you. Make certain you’re hydrated beforehand and don’t lock your knees! We called it Surfing Summerall because it looked like you were catching a tasty wave as you slowly lost consciousness before you smooth face planted only to be drug off field by your feet by an NCO behind the formation and replaced by an Alternate. Word on the street was if that happened to you, you’d find yourself at Camp Liberty Bell at the DMZ within the next 72 hours to live out the rest of your enlistment.

I dont know about England, but the kings guards here are paid the same as a soldier, it is part of their military service, but only a few selected ones are selected to the work as you have to meet certain physical acquirements.
It happens when you stand like that. Soldiers in long ceremonies and can't move, your feet start to numb out and circulation in the legs start affecting you cause sometimes the knees lock.
You learn to deal with it by shifting weight in your feet and breathing exercises.
Big ups to him got being there for hours.
I've seen dudes pass out for just doing 30 minutes locked in that position.
They also teach you to not stand with your knees locked, but unlocked, as it allows circulation to continue.
@@LEVI040910 That's what the Queen used to do when she had to stand around for hours at ceremonies.

This is why at the Tomb of The Unknown Soldier; the guards make routine walks and routes. It helps with standing for long periods of time. Those micro breaks inbetween steps make a huge difference
But the guards at the tomb are allowed to correct the public when they step out of line and become a** wipes. The Royal guards aren't allowed to respond in any way.
Thanks for mentioned it. I was a about to. Why couldn’t they pace? Still an exhausting but a bit less demanding of right stands
*mentioning not mentioned*
They are allowed to move and you can see them doing this every so often. I think it's limited to 15 steps every 20 minutes or something like that. I'm sure someone will be more knowledgeable than me about exactly what's allowed. He doesn't look very well!

The Guards are recognized for being sentinel soldiers, so it can make it difficult for them to perform certain actions, such as adjusting their helmet for example.
Luckily, members of the Police or Army are usually positioned nearby to provide support or reinforcements, whether it be keeping tourists away or adjusting their uniform to maintain its perfection.
What a great team.

He's probably close to passing out as usual. These guards need to stop being treated like freaking objects.
they don't it's pretty clear how hard being a royal guard is wayyyyy b4 you ever join. some people just aren't made for it and some people are. this man's composure and determination for his job deserves massive respect nit misunderstanding why they do this and have too.

allora dovrebbero smetterla di fare richiesta perche hey! nessuno glielo impone. È in lavoro come in altro, oltretutto ben retribuito. Sicuramente faticoso ma non è di certo schiavismo. È come lamentarsi se, una volta arruolato, ti mandano in missione e torni a casa senza una gamba. Mica te l'ha ordinato il medico di arruolarti. Sono solo cazzi tuoi, tu l'hai voluto e tu devi prendere il bello ed il brutto. Mai capirò infatti il lavoro del militare. Le guerre non dovrebbero esistere tra una specie che si proclama razionale, intelligenza, autoconsapevole. Siamo solo dei coglioni noi umani. L'umanità intesa cone condizione sociologia, non esiste. Siamo solo animali con la voglia di pisciare in testa al prossimo. Però a differenza di paesi comunisti o fascisti e/o Arabi, noi Occidentali viviamo tutto sommato bene. Le paghe in Italia sono basse, ma la schiavitù vera e propria non esiste. Dobbiamo guardare al peggio e pensare di stare tutto sommato bene. Perché "il meglio" non arriverà mai. Fatto sta che quella guardia guadagna più di me senza fare un cazzo. Ok è dura stare in i
piedi tutto il giorno nella stessa posizione ma, quelli vanno in pensione anticipata. Le guardie reali sono tutte giovani se ci fai caso. Ed in Inghilterra avere un curriculum del genere, ti apre indubbiamente porte e portoni.

I tied my cadet sergeant to his bed with bungee ropes as a joke, and the whole platoon and myself had to stand on parade for 4 hours with out moving a muscle for a punishment. If one of us moved they added a extra 30 minutes. It’s pure discomfort and your mind starts crumbling after a few hours. Running 10 miles with your full gear on is golden compared to standing for hours on end.
I've never been in the military, so i can't say if your sergeant just had a lousy sense of humor (?) or if you were committing what us civilians call a "sex crime", but fyi on the civvie side you get a lot worse punishment than a bit of standing or running, its called prison (you might know it as the brig?)...so you may want to knock it off when you inevitability end up back on the side of the masses who can't just duke it out w AK's on a level playing field, but:
💯 I thank you for your service, regardless; it is sacrifices by people like you that make this country great, and keep us safe from foreign threat: if no one has told you yet today, I appreciate you 🤝 🫡
("it" behavior referring to any sort of kidnapping, false imprisonment, assault and/or battery of any degree, riding roughshod over any "no means no" boundaries = accusing someone of not being able to take a joke falls flat when you are the only one laughing)...
...and if none of this applies to you and you are a just a gentle soul with a wink wink sense of humor, so much the better for humankind, my good sir! hopefully this bit of advice, while not applicable to you, will find its intended audience by happenstance some future day, and inspire a change of attitude or behavior for the better, if one has a mind to read what is arguably an off-topic novella in a youtube comment section...
... until then, namaste 🙏 👍✌️👨✈️💂🏼♂️🙋♀️ and good day 🌄
That's fucked
@@cleanserene6330very well read/said I agree 💯 with the genuineness of my appreciation for your service as well 🙏🏾
@@cleanserene6330what the fúck
Blood pools up.
I pace back and forth on a long shift if I can't sit like when I was working at a warehouse.
Massive respect to all three of the gents in this video
Something happened! Otherwise the guards keep their composure 100%! They are very well trained and do honorable work! ❤
What is honorable in any of that rofl
@@markkomarov4817 of with your head lol
Thanks for what you do.❤ Dealing with people that have no boundaries is hard. Stay strong you're doing great. 🤗
Doing great in what? What's its contribution?
I wish I was half the man it takes to become that highly esteemed of a soldier. These guys are the epitome of self control
bruh he's just standing there, with ceremonial equipment, he's a spectacle.
RESPECT! Make a good stressed job. Thats the army!
Full respect to these guys.
So gentle the way the soldier put the horse hair straight on the helmet of his fellow guard. They all need protecting from the ones who go to torment them 🚧
Looks as though they looked out for the youngster. Straightened his appearance looked him in his eyes. Then gave him some needed words of strength and encouragement.
People helping people it’s what’s it’s all about.
Helping him do one of the most worthless weird ritualistic jobs ever.
Sliping into lizard mode
@@lukehurley4437😂😂😂
Well said. It's ceremonial to be sure but it stands for more than a weird ritual. Not saying it's not a weird ritual. As an American, we are certainly full of our own military traditions that can seem to make no sense but once you take a moment to appreciate the history of every movement, every portion of the uniform, and or his acceptance of the duty and his relief of duty. One begins to feel a bit more weight of past souls giving to the ideal. Congratulations on a wonderful military tradition while not imposing said tradition on the public. Good on ya'll.
@@sethspot1it's weird asf to stand still for hours for no reason bro. Man's is clearly thirsty and be cant even drink some water. Thats messed up
He's tougher than me for sure.I could never stand for hours alone not moving or talking. Good job, sir ❤
Born to be a wizard, forced to serve the king.
no its volentary
gold
@@dfdempire8912 well he cant be a wizard in this realm :(
He looks super pissed off like he’s venting to the officer about why he’s mad. I wanna know what happen
This guards since of respect for his country is commendable and he is a credit to his homeland.
@abiA5 said that it's because tourists were being utterly disrespectful, and the officer and soldier stepped in to offer support and to make the tourists leave❤
He is either mad bc someone came to close or touched him (which would also be a reason why they closed that area and why they fixed his helmet) or its the heat of the summer paired with the thick coat and all that clothing. Most people dont understand how hard it is to stand and walk around in the heat with all that on.
Military professionnel who work for the queen have full right to touch the guard as long as there helping them/there Horse
Mas eles foram treinados para isso. Se não está bom, pede pra sair.
@@millearaujo5986being trained doesn’t mean it isn’t hard. 🙄
@@jackthehat6454I think they were referring to a civilian touching them, not another guard.
They don't wear the long coat in the summer lol😅
I. Love them. I am not from UK. I loved them. I respect them ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
