Exactly. I’ve said it before, and il say it again. Stop bulling these guys. They are working soldiers and working horses 🐴!
LLllllllllllllllllllll,tltlllllllllllllllllllllllrr

As a British subject I have walked down that street before and I would never dream of even getting that close to those guards let alone touching the horses or interfering with them in any way. If I was a tourist in another land I would respect their police and military and heads of state.
The best comment I have ever seen "people come here and think it's Disneyland" I hope one day to visit England and NOT be a stupid tourist.
As a US citizen, I find it utterly rude that people would even think of grabbing the reins. These horses are on duty, just like the guard in the saddle. I wish these boneheads would realize that they are part of the military, not a petting zoo. I also would thank the guard and horse, for the photo opportunity and for their service.
Wish they were all men, it's embarrassing to have women soldiers.
Sommige mensen zijn dom. Die moeten rukken aan de teugels. Die weten niet wat dat met het paard doet. Paard en ruiter zijn publieke bezit. Denken veel mensen.😢.
Soms denk ik laat het paard eens een goede hap uit een toerist nemen.
Of een por met het zwaard😂
GSF * totally agree, unfortunately a lot of people don't have that respect
I simply don't understand why people think it's OK to cross the line of inappropriate behaviour towards the Queens Guards
Queen's Guards/
?
King's Guards now, dummy.
@@deadghost1964 you don’t have to be rude about it
@@donnamcnair6730 Why not? He just watched how rude the guard was, and people are applauding it.
As I have commented before, anyone who thinks these soldiers are purely ceremonial is in for a short, sharp shock...well done Trooper!
Actually police took over duties of protecting the Queen so they are backup and tourist attraction.
@@gbjanuary Actually...Those are Met Officers and not Royal Protection Squad and act as security to deal with nutters and terrorism threats, they are there more for the protection of the public. My comment alluded to the fact that these are trained soldiers (as was I once upon a time) and not just window dressing, they would not hesitate to get stuck in as required. Reconnaissance troops with three operational tours in Iraq and five in Afghanistan. "Honi soit quimal y pense!"
@@Tonad1978 some of them are young only 20 so doubt they have seen any combat. Yes I agree they are trained soldiers.
@@gbjanuary I agree, I was very surprised to realise how young the soldier was by the sound of their voice. Combat experience notwithstanding I highly doubt any would fail to act if required, I can attest from personal experience that the training fully prepares a person for this. If they were not up to it they would not be on the gate for all the world to see.
@@gbjanuary Some may only be as young as 20 and have not seen active service, however, many of the soldiers have seen active service there are two roles in the Household Cavalry, Armoured and Ceremonial many of the soldiers have rotated through both roles and have done many operational tours of most recent times it was Iraq and Afghanistan previous to that is was Northern Ireland, Bosnia and Kosovo. They provide armoured reconnaissance to the Airbourne and Commando Brigades. Those who start out on the ceremonial duties will go on to the Armoured Regiment later.
People, as a whole, are astoundingly dense and rude. You don't touch a horse, a dog, a cat, or a child that is not yours'. Should have been learned way before going out in public.
(...unless they're young and unsupervised and about to step into a road)

7400; Thank you for teaching me.
Does anyone else watch these just to see them jump when "Get off the reins" is yelled at them, cause I always get a kick outta that.
I do 🤣🤣🤣 I love when it makes them jump!!
And they always look amazed, offended or both!

That Horse looks well looked after.Absolute credit to all involved.
there is a behind the scenes ideo, showing the Sta lks & the soldiers for ing there, they also showed the soldiers polishing the ar. armour & cleaning the leather saddles & reins, if people sR nowngit takes to do this, I am sure they uldshow the guards. ore respect, and not, touch the reins, it takes, hours, the uniforms cost £2k each the saddles about, £1500, each, very interesting video, so yes more respect needed please, Amen!
I bet these guards see so many stupid people.
Especially in the palice
Endless amounts, I'm sure.

So she perhaps didn't understand this shout :
《OFF THE REINS》!!!!!! 🤔
Eh, their only "job" is to be a tourist attraction. It's not like these particular guards are armed, and they're surrounded by police and other guards with weapons and equipment who do the actual guarding. Their job is basically to put up with this
@@rkuzmic They are highly trained troops, they don't have to put up with this shit from stupid tourist.
It's as if people think these guards are a Disney World attraction and not active members of the military on duty.

@@marioglory8528 That explains her stupidity
I thought anyone with brains knew not to grab the reins when there is a person on the horse. Stupid !!!!!
why oh why do these tourists always want to hang onto the horses reins?...baffles me..lol..💐🇬🇧👑🌺
Because those tourists want the perfect picture for their instagram, tik tok or whatever 😬 😅
I know I'd never dream of invading the soldier and horses space like that photo or no.
Because they are thick.
Good trooper! Bloody tourists are thick as sludge! I’d put a barrier around the horses. Stand close but NO TOUCHING of any kind!
I used to go, there was a bit of a barrier- also, at Windsor Castle, when I took students. About 10 feet to the right, left, front and back- and it was marked. I had a student who stepped across the line... once. I almost flew him home on his parent's "dime". We could take pictures, but from a distance. I was surprised that ppl could get that close.
She was an old woman and didnt think gosh what harm was she gonna do.The sign should say no touching if they dont want people coming up.Simple.
They don't seem to mind people stroking the horse, it's when they have the audacity to hold the bridle &/or rains etc....
This is how the officer controls the horse! A horse, which is well trained soldier & as a weapon, & is more than fully capable of hurting someone! If someone else is holding the reins/bridle & the officer needs to move the horse, the signal is stopped/changed & horse doesn't know what is wanted from it...
It's like walking up to an armed guard/police officer & holding onto their gun... Taking hold of the reins, is basically, taking hold of the soldiers weapon...
Plus, the horse is not only regarded as part of the soldiers weaponry, but it is also an officer in the Kings Guard, in its on right!
It can receive medals just as a human can, it has to good through a lot of training to do its job too! They are a team who have trained together & they look out for each other!
@@kookycat9663 Well said!!
Guard Horses should be regarded in the same light as Guide Dogs. They are working & should not be distracted.
the woman who touched the horse is greek at 1:54, she spoke greek saying oh my "holy mother" in greek axaxaxxaa
Dumb comment. If the military wanted the horses to be treated in the same light as guide dogs, then they would prohibit the horses being touched at all. Since that is not the case, it is clear the horse and rider are for the tourists to have their pictures taken with them, and from all the videos I have seen, the tourists are permitted to pet the horses. The horse and rider are on site, strictly for the tourists, they are not guarding anything (the police are on location and they are the real guards). However, posting a sign that says "Do not touch the reins" would be appropriate.
@@JPB-wy5cl Oh they are real guards. Do not doubt it. They may be making a pretty picture for the tourists & superficially that appears to be their role, which allows them to keep a very close eye on people indeed without appearing oppressive. A horse is a powerful weapon if needed to be.
And a horse can hurt you a whole lot worse if it's provoked or frightened. We're talking 1200 pounds of horse vs maybe100 pounds of dog.
@@JPB-wy5cl As far as I know, it's not prohibited to touch a working guide dog, it's simply accepted that it is not the correct or sensible thing to do as they are to a large extent, in charge of their human's life.
The same should apply to these working horses but even if it was prohibited to touch them, many tourists would ignore that (possibly on the grounds that they are Greek (as at 1:54 😀)) and stroke the horse anyway. They are not encouraged to stroke the horses, and most horses don't like their noses being stroked by complete strangers anyway, but if people desperately want a photo of themselves next to a mounted Life Guard, that's fine. It's one of the reasons why London is a popular tourist destination. In a way, this is a regular training exercise for the horses who should be able to stand or walk quietly when required, ignoring distractions, although some of the Guards' mounts were getting very riled up coming up the Long Walk to Windsor Castle at the funeral on the 19th September.
🤣🤣🤣 well done guard
Not really. It's pretty rude for window dressing to act that way. It's pure theatre.
@@littlebitofhope1489 Window dressing? you couldnt be more wrong if you tried,highly respected position mostly held by soldiers who served in conflicts

Why do they let these idiots so close to the Guardsman on the horse. Can’t they be kept behind a barrier, The feral people, not the horses.
I personally do not believe the public should be allowed within 100 feet of the Queens horse guard… this is a good example of why…. I guess there is stupidity everywhere..🤔
the woman who touched the horse is greek at 1:54, she spoke greek saying oh my "holy mother" in greek axaxaxxaa
Don’t people teach them to not touch anything but pet them, the guard doesn’t mind it when they stroke the horse put touching horse equipment like the reins and such that they shouldn’t be touching they deserve to be shouted at and never allowed again to take a picture with it again
Correct !, and its about time these cretins are kept well away.
Hello Sheryl how’re you doing?
@@marioglory8528 So! If I went to Greece and disrespected one of their military I'd probably end up in prison. Good manners and respect should be international.
Amazing how many people don’t understand how horses work.
Let's pet the horse that the sign says "MAY KICK OR BITE!" apparently said every tourist. 🙄
the woman who touched the horse is greek at 1:54, she spoke greek saying oh my "holy mother" in greek axaxaxxaa
You forget. 'Tourists' do not necessarily speak, or read English. Typical English perception 🙄. Common sense and decency should be universal though.
@@Chafflives Agree on all counts.
She was quite right to shout as she did. I don’t understand the idiocy of tourists to London who think it is okay to disturb and harass guards, whether mounted or not, performing their duty. The guards from all regiments must dread having to be on duty in a place where the public have access.
I am amazed by the tourists attitude. Why do they lean on or against the horse , and grab the reins.
Can't they stand on their own two feet.
Well done to the Trooper.
Would they grab the steering wheel in a moving car? It's basically the same thing
the woman who touched the horse is greek at 1:54, she spoke greek saying oh my "holy mother" in greek axaxaxxaa
I hate to say so but some people are just stupid enough to grab the wheel.
When that soldier yelled at her - priceless!
There should be a giant sign saying 'DON'T TOUCH THE HORSE OR THE SOLDIER", or there should be a gate thing around them to protect horse and guards from the stupidity of some humans 🤦🏼♀️😠
Maybe the sign should say “stupid don’t touch the horse you idiot” otherwise I’ll bitch slap your husband for marrying you.
I, would not like to see a gate around them as I am very respectful the Horse is on Duty cage the ignorant people instead.
There is a sign, but it's in English for the foreign tourists.
I saw one video earlier, where the idiot actually put his hand on the Guard's knee! Why did he think that was acceptable?
It’s never okay to touch a service dog without the handlers permission, why people think this is acceptable with a horse is mind blowing. Horses can be very smart, but they can also be very dim, fearful, confused, and downright aggressive.
I wouldn’t let random people touch my horse when I was mounted on his back “or otherwise” because (A) he was a F*ing biter and (B) I didn’t want to risk getting thrown because someone put him in a mood because they started acting spastic.
Even an expierienced horse is still a horse, stroking their face can sooth them, but it can also distract them, and even alarm them depending on the person doing it, how they’re dressed, how they’re behaving, or what other circumstances happen to be going on, and a scared horse is a dangerous horse.
Royal guards have strict rules that they can only interact with the public if absolutly necessary, so they can’t sit down and have a chat to explain this to every tourist that passes by.
So the lesson here is DON’T TOUCH the pretty ponies.
Well said!

If you want to touch a horse, go to a petting zoo. This is the Queen's Guards job!
I think that soldier ought to be able to use her sword for ‘Darwin Award’ moments like these.
Her its a woman
@@anitathrusfieldgrunter1551 thank you for the correction much appreciated! 😉👍
Just stand don’t need to touch
Ought to have a sign warning tourists to keep their hands off the reins.....written in every language !
Idiots should already know that.
Haven’t got a wall big enough
Wouldn't make any difference, it's just like if you are out walking your dog and someone comes over and insists on rubbing your dog and when you tell them no there is a mouthful of abuse. No one puts their hands on my dog, the horses and riders should be left alone, it's bad enough having to put up with the heat without having to put up with annoying tourists.
@@walterlatham8851 yes, so true.
What the hell for? They still won't obey. Nobody reads signs anymore, everyone feels entitled and call people names like Karens or Kevins for offering and respecting and warning others to obey.
It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to actually have a sign that states "Do not touch the reins of the horse".
It’s an idea, however you wouldn’t grab hold of a steering wheel whilst it’s working just for a photo.
But would they read???😵💫
That means you assume people can read XD
I've been a military police officer (did a less glamorous similar duty to these guards) and a tow truck driver and let me tell you something about reading... most people treat literacy like a burden or a deadly tumor they are forces to carry around and absolutely will NOT EVER read anything even if it means helping themselves. Giant white arrow painted on the road? Too confusing. Car broke down in a dangerous neighborhood? Can't be bothered to read a street sign with 1 word on it or look around for a number on a building. Most people would rather step on a landmine than read, unless it's a McDonald's menu, but I've noticed it's mostly just pictures on tv now...
People don't read signs...it's one reason why there are so many car accidents.
Poking the reins means a loss of control for the soldier. That silly woman could make the horse behave in an unpredictable manner, potentially causing injury.
They should be allowed to use that sword
They are, but everyone hopes it doesn't come to that.
they are able to use all weapons but only a last option they give warnings first and if you dont listen they are able to use force but luckly that has never had to happen because most people listen to the warning

The guards rarely bite people to be fair:-)
the woman who touched the horse is greek at 1:54, she spoke greek saying oh my "holy mother" in greek axaxaxxaa
That’s why the guard shouted, he lets everyone stroke the horse but won’t let anyone touch the reins, since I’ve ridden horses before I understand why, riders need control of the horse with the reins so if people touch the reins then the rider has less control of the reins
Well, if they have a sign about Horses may bite and don’t take any notice why would the take notice of any other sign?
When will people realise that you do not mess around with the Queen's, now King's guards. They are not there just purely for decoration. Each one is a serving soldier and will react as such if someone gets in the way
They should not be allowed to touch the horse’s at all I am sure they get fed up with it and it is just not on grabbing the reigns they make me so mad what is wrong with people ? The other day a young girl about 4 kept going in the arch from behind the horse’s right up to their hind legs where were the parents beggers belief if that horse got spooked and kicked out that child could have been badly injured disgusting .
Served her right .....fool 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Agreed. Stupid woman?
They pickup every little trinket in the souvenir shops, look at it, and put it back on the shelf. The palace guards and their horses are not bloody trinkets.
Fabulous guards and horses I could look at them all dayx
Why do people think that it is ok to invade the space of the guard and their horse? Then get surprised and angry when the guard tells them to move or stop what they are doing.
Shouldn't even touch the horse , its a working animal , you wouldn't keep touching a guide dog when working , bloody tourists have no respect
That is a silly comparison.
@Real Aiglon their still a working animal
The public should not be allowed to get so close to the guards and the horses. There should be a barrier.

Here's a "Top Tourist Tip" (did you like the alliteration, there!): when I was the father of 3 little boys, I would take them there on the way home from Nursery, stand calmly to one side, whilst speaking softly, so that the Trooper could hear me and my boy's questions and answers about matters equine (the horse's name is on a bridle-piece, underneath the noseband, for example).
When it came time for the obligatory photograph, I would tell my boys what we intended to do (again, so the Trooper could hear) and EVERY time, the soldier would cooperate; courtesy, communication and care (more alliteration!) is all that's needed, at the stressful guard post.
I agree 100% I have so much honor in my heart. For the work that they put into everything they do I'm over here across the pond but it makes me want to go there I'd buy them a pint or 6
the lack of respect is astounding, but this what happens with weak brained selfish people

Don't be so stupid. They are not guarding anything, they are strictly on location specifically for the tourists.
Exactly look and do not touch the rains show respect to the guards 😤
People don't understand that putting your hand on or taking hold of the reins is like someone putting their hand on your steering wheel while you are driving. In truth you really shouldn't even pat the horse. While theirs are well trained, there's always the risk that the horse may react (to your perfume, moisturizer, jewelry, or simply be tired of the invasion of personal space) - and you'll get quite the kick (well deserved too).
But then the ignorant little darlings would sue.
@@janem.hunt-webb7463 The case would be thrown out, the signs are pretty obvious.
Respect the horse.
That's 2 different people I've seen doing this to this same guard and her horse. As an ex groom I can honestly tell you... Never mess around with a strange horse. You would not approach and mess with a strange person so why do it to an animal that you don't know and that does not know you ?
Hi how are you doing?
There should be penalties once warned!

Good for her. I love it when the guards yell at morons. Yes, they are a tourist attraction but they are also WORKING. Would you just walk up to a civilian and touch their tools? You'd likely get more than yelled at from them so please, respect the guards and their personal space.
thier is only so much patience you must have working there everyday with the public.

Respect for the royal guard means we never touch, not even the horses. The royal guard allows photography next to them, but always keep a distance from the guard and the horses. Every guard can't explain all the time. Tourists who do not know, should be informed before visiting the royal palace
People are so freaking stupid. Walk up to a horse and rider that you don't know and grab the reins. INSANE!
Those reins seem to be impossible to resist for some people. They have to hold them. Like this woman here.
These are the same type of muppets that sees a sign saying" Wet Paint'........and touch it anyway to see if it's wet
There’s no answer to stupidity
Exactly right. You can't fix stupid.
There needs to be an adaptation for modern times. A line of M4 armed guards need to set a perimeter to preserve the dignity and safety of the guards. The public are no longer to be trusted to act in a dignified manner. A line of M4's will fix that
I had my photo taken standing next to one of these mounted guards. It didn't enter my head to even try to touch the horse. It's not my horse to touch! Plus it's working!
There is a big sign but they just think the guard and horse is there for their selfie..
I would love to see one good bite when they all crowd in...

WHY does anyone think it is ok to grab the reins of a horse that does not belong to them? Especially a working horse on duty. They are not a prop for pictures.
I would love to come over the pond and visit. Are there any pamphlet for this.
How he contained himself is beyond me,I would of lost my cool allot sooner. Lol
You don't grab a strangers steering wheel, the throttle on his motorbike or the reins of their horses... its basics!!!
The woman looked so offended lmao
Some tourists do not have common sense, they do not know what they are doing. They think it is all right to touch anything.😲😲😲😲
To be fair, all of the others were touching and they did not say a word. And the guard could have given a first warning in a normal voice. It's not like they are anything more than window dressing anyway.
Not only should you never touch someone elses animal without asking but imagine walking up to someones car while they are in it and grabbing their steering wheel. 🙄
TBH they should actually write Get Off the Reins on that board.
I don’t know why people are allowed so close. The horse is working, don’t touch it.
They have a principle job + if you interfere with that there could/would be consequences… great job done well!
The only visitor attraction in London that doesn't worry about it's Tripadvisor score.
These are the same kind of people who stand in the way of a marching column and get knocked down/out of the way, and wonder what they did - JUST PLAIN STUPID. I once crossed a yellow line on a flight line, and got a "royal" chewing out, I didn't know I had to enter the flight line at a choke point, closest NEAR DEATH experience I've had, beside a few parachute malfunctions.
They don't mind if you touch the horse, but grabbing the reins is like grabbing the steering wheel in a car - you DON'T do it!
People rathers it's the Queen's or kings guard horse or someone in your back yard Don't touch the reins !!!!!.
Show respect to our guards WHI are serving soldiers
When will people realise the horses and guards are not there as a tourist attraction.
They are there as a tourist attraction, they are not guarding anything. The police are doing the guarding.
There seems to be so many instances where people touch the reins so perhaps they should add a line to those notices to tell people not to do it. It might help.
These people are so thoughtless! Also in all these clips of people taking photos i have yet to see ONE say 'thank you' to the very patient rider! Maybe a sign needs to be up to stay 1-2 meters away from the horse when taking photos.
Very much like the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown at Arlington.
You should not be allowed to touch them in the first place.
