3:40 The reason we took them up is because the grenadiers defeated the French at Waterloo and wore their hats as a way to remember it! Also the chinstraps don’t serve much of a purpose anymore, they were to protect soldiers faces from cavalry sabres.
They do, the chinstraps are incase the hat falls in a battle or something, if it were under their neck their neck would break
They are now King's guard
True Well done for remembering that the queen died witch is kinda of sad the queen died
Bingo
Um… “passed away”?@@Rosie_Rose401
Rest in peace 🕊️
@@Rosie_Rose401just kinda though she was old😂
I think the head guard is made for that, in case someone drops down flat on floor, the head is saved!
Whoever's reading this, i pray that whatever you're going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! Amen
fanta
Amen
Thanks bud
@Mohd Aaqib Hamdule bot love to copy my original comment over and over again
Amen.
I always feel bad for them.. it’s inhumane. No bathroom breaks, no water break, no chair to take a min rest. 😏
Imagine if they accidentally uses the bathroom on themself.🤣
Even after they train for many hours a day, it still hurts
Maybe that’s why they faint?
@@lucyarem they are supposed to do that
Bots are taking over
There are times ,I feel sorry for those guards!🇺🇲❤️🇬🇧
Same
Same
ABSOLUTELY! I can't even begin to imagine what they go through, especially when it's hot or raining. I imagine those 9lb hats get pretty heavy in the rain. Not being able to talk would drive me bananas! I love how they will take photos with civilians.
@5:25 "Since a full day of work can last over 24 hours"
Hmmm....
The King's Guards 😀
Exactly so.
btw the bearskins cost £1000
3:57 Incorrect, the natural hats are repellent. When they tried to switch to synthetic fur however, it did get heavier
Most of the information in this video is incorrect. For example, the Grenadier Guards have a WHITE plume on left side of the bearskin, and, there are only FIVE regiments that wear the bearskin - The Grenadiers, The Coldstream, The Irish, The Scots and The Welsh. Please double check the information you already have.
That's not most but I see that your talking about.
The queen has now died
SHE IS LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
At Buckingham Palace, out on the lawn green is the waterloo vase.
Wellington's Victory at the Battle in 1815.
After the battle of Waterloo, the British brought back bearskin hats and lancers to their military.
Life is mostly odd.
Yeah 😅
Its the Kings guard.
WE KNOW!!!!!
love the content
Salute to all of you…. My utmost respect as well.
I don't think Bright Side has been updated
He said "The Queen" and it's now "The King"
The video is prerecorded.
@@danielledewitt1 that makes sense
Amazing
It's really hard for them.
It’s actually the KING’S guard now…..
Lol
YEAH THE QUEEN IS DED
The Grenadier guards have a white plum
I used to do this so some facts for you:
1. You only do 24 hours in the summer and 48 hours in the winter at location.
2. You only do 2 hours on a box and that’s you finished for the day, the rest you’re in the guardroom.
3. Fainting protocol is right. Faint forward and remain stiff is the correct way as standing to attention is slightly forward leaning.
4. Guards do talk…they just don’t make it obvious.
5. Only 1 guard is on a post when HM is out, 2 guards when HM is in residence.
I can't imagine how stressful it has to be to be a royal guard. I mean, you can't break character, you have to have your whole hours planned to the minute, and also be in character at all times! Kinda reminds me of the actors at Disneyworld / Disneyland. But these Royal Guards have such an important job so it has to be more stressful for them, I would imagine.
Nice video
Fun fact an Executive office and higher have a little bit smaller of a hat
*Can we Just believe how this guy never ever disappoint us*
Yeah!

@@kassis2002 hey, we brothers? i do the same thing as you.

It's - MAKE WAY OF THE KINGS QUARDS!
Extrememley hot outside meanwhile in australia
Rest in peace your royal majesty
My dad was a royals guard 💂♂️
Did he encounter anything weird or almost broke character? Any stories of his time being a royal guard? Super interesting!!!
they are no longer the queens guards they are now the kings guards
Imagine.. your mom just died and your working as a (kings) guard now and you arent allowed to show any emotion
They chose that Job, its not Like they didint know in what they are going into
Every job where you face people require you to maintain a professional appearance, regardless of your emotions
Kings guards actually.
Some royal guard folks told that some of their guy connected his brain to the nearest wifi and was watching youtube videos in his head
So the guards actually don’t stay in the same place when it rains they stand inside there sentry box
How they eat?
i live in the uk and i seen them
Be respectful 👏🏻
So what happened if a kid wanted to join the British guards
Its a really Difficult job life to be a British Army Royal Foot Guard.
Not easy atoll.
Crazy
🎃Trick or Treat!🎃
When the guards fall on the ground face first they can loss their teeth and often will get a broken nose.
90000:35 was the best part
2:10 pretty average weather (it is not that's why it is called a heatwave)
again we were
never in
The near of The Guards
Incorrect. Their hats weigh approximately 0.7 kilograms / 1.5 lb.... NOT the NINE (9) pounds stated in the video.
King guard now
NAHH MAN MY COUSIN JUST SAID SKILL ISSUES
Wait, didn’t the Queen die in September?
Sadly yes.
Its not worth it
Hey everyone

Nothing but a clowns 🤦♂️ royal guard....... Sent them Spetsnaz and they will cry like a babies 🤣🤣🤣🤣
They fought ( Welsh Guards)in the Falklands, and we all know how that ended for Argentina .
Go to Wales and say your comment, and see what happens , Boyo .
You know nothing about the guards then 😂
Paddington bear 🐻 from the uk

*kings royal guard
the guards:💀
Hi
ℕ𝕚𝕔𝕖
No thanks!
What if they need to eat
They have 2 hours on duty 4 hours off.
He said queen
Prerecorded video.
Live in the uk
I already do
Oh ok
0:16 help what 💀
It in the uk 🇬🇧
Where do the guards sleep?
Depends on what duty and where your stationed. on ceremonial duties, (at Buckingham palace) you are placed in the barracks beside the palace. If not you go into Wellington barracks. But there’s much more barracks
You pronounced Woolwich wrong. It, s not pronounced Woolwich, it, s pronounced woolich
Hard
wow
Why are you talking about the queen we know she passed in September 😢.talk about the king
Probably recorded before
👋 Hey
The first woman to be in the British army did not look like a British army it looks like a German army person and say goodbye to one of the guards if they die of heat and do not just fans
Why queen's guard there is king charles on the throne
They probably pre recorded this video before Queen Elizabeth passed on .
They used to be called redcoats
nah they all had regiments. Redcoats are just a nickname sort of thing
They still wear red coats.
Pathetic ancient rituals , It's 2022 , not 1822 .
i want to be a royal guard i can do all the rules but i dont live there
If you're a citizen of the Commonwealth you can apply. We have people from all over the world serving, bless them all 😊
23 MINUTES AGO?!
I served in the Scots guards in the 80, s. Some of this is BS. There are only 5 regiments that wear the bearskin the 2 regiments of horse guards don't. Fainting protocol if you go down go straight down otherwise you will get charged with bluffing it. 😊
I’ve always wanted to become a Queens guard
*King*
I’m actually a boy and I’m just using my mom’s account
I can’t believe it I just became a Queens guard
Congratulations
Thank you
*YOU WILL BECOME SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE*
if you believe type *YES* to reply this 🙏🏻
YES
YES
Yes
Yes
*YES*
Plz they need to change there rights
They’e fine. Don’t act like they’re slaves. They chose this job knowing what was going to happen.
wow a comment after 2 months how was the video i don't even remember
Why don't we all vote to give them a sofa a tv a cup of coke to enjoy them selfs!
Question:Can girls be a guard or not?
Yes they can
No
Yes girls can be guards did you watch the vid
3:53
This should be illegal 😡 no breaks really!!! 😭😭
They were trained and signed up for it
They do. They get 2 hours on and 4 hours off
@@Princeton5 oh ok
4:22 not true
How do you not go to the bathroom then
Well yeah true it is the kings guard because the Queen unfortunately died…I know it’s very sad but yeah but also I have a joke why can’t you play chess in England 🏴…BECAUSE THERE IS NO QUEEN HAHAHAHAHAHAH but still not trying to be mean
LoL
Does gurads walk like a NPC
If they are never allowed to move or talk much then obviously people could just get right by them. You’d think guards would be allowed to move freely. Especially hauling tail if anyone runs away from them.
They are allowed to move and speak but ONLY when someone is getting top close to them or the palace
