Best Changing Of The Guards In 15 Countries
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- The changing of the guard, is a formal ceremony in which sentries performing ceremonial guard duties at important institutions are relieved by a new batch of sentries. The ceremonies are often elaborate and precisely choreographed. They originated with peacetime and battlefield military drills introduced to enhance unit cohesion and effectiveness in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. (Source: Wikipedia)

Seeing different countries with their own unique series of movements during their changing of the guard is intriguing.
It would be interesting to break down each movement and learn the purpose and meaning behind each gesture.
That's of course a matter of taste. But for me the British are the best by far, their splendid uniforms, their bandswith excellent musicians, their majestic drum majors. I love them, that's it! Sorry about that but the Greek are ridiculous in every direction. The Chinese are perfect, too perfect. And the American are also ridiculous robots.
I do agree with the Greek being ridiculous and the British being good (Your are clearly British), however, the American is not ridiculous it is impressive, and they have been known to guard during any weather such as hail, storm, snow, lowest temperatures highest temperatures and China of course is perfect (like always) but cool parades and ceremonies do not prove power though.
@@robertsherwood6817Dear Robert, thank you very much for your very interesting answer and comment. I'm not British, just what we call in my country an "anglophile", which means a person who loves very much the british way of life, culture and language. I have to reconsider my statement about the Americans who perform a perfect drill. However, it is not quite my taste to see soldiers wearing sunglasses during an official ceremony and moving and marching like robots. The word "ridiculous" was too much and disrespectful, l apologize for that. I wish you all the best Robert, it was a pleasure to talk with you.
@@Laurent-Raggos I accept your apology and I also very much love the British uniforms, additionally I also indeed love the way they march, I even love their all dark green uniforms with a hint of red and gold here and there. They are personally my favorite out of all of the Royal Guards however, I do understand where you come from with the Sentinel Guards, I personally do not favor the glasses and I don't hate there march/movement but I don't love it I guess it is kind of cool. There is something else I wanted to share, I also quite like the Norwegian Royal Guards and the Swedish Royal Guards, but also I would like the British to use a glossed wooden rifle because I just feel like it looks better and is more classic. Though, the newer weapon may be more useful if it came down to it but the British Royal Guards do not usually have a loaded gun, just my thoughts.
And Laurent it was a pleasure sharing each other's opinions on a matter we clearly are interested in!
@@robertsherwood6817 Dear Robert, thank you so much for your great and kind answer with which l totally agree. As we both share the same points of interest, we may chat again together on UA-cam. There are numerous nice videos from MrBaton74, TheKingsGuardsChannel and many others to watch and make comments at. Remain healthy Robert and till next time. My very best regards
Taiwan also has some pretty nice ones at three locations in Taipei; the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and National Revolutionary Martyrs' Shrine. And they also have a flag raising ceremony every morning in the square in front of the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall.
I'm sorry Greece, but I can't stop comparing your changing of guard with Monty Python's Ministry of Silly Walks 😳
That was a ridiculous fail in some cases. The Buckingham Palace section was just some bands walking around. And why was unnecessary background music inserted in random places?
Whats wrong with the Guards bands? Their trombones are insane!!
The changing of the guard in Greece takes place in extreme silence, and the noise of the shoes, the movements, as well as every detail of the uniform have a special meaning. They are addressed not to us , but to the unknown dead soldiers of the Greek wars throughout history.
Divine Greece , long live Hellas.
Thanks for the info
Which one of those soldiers do you think is actually guarding that gate in the Czech Republic?
Norways change of the guard was a special occasion
Greece's looks like it was designed as a humiliation ritual by the Monty Python team.
😂😂 what a comment burst out laughing
I think it's nice with traditions like these, but I can't for the life of me stop thinking about the ministry of silly walks
Good ideas
Silly walks are epic to me.
The British Grenadiers have the best shuffle.
Where do you think they got their inspiration from?
I either am losing it or tired because I don’t see any captions…
The stupid music overlay in this vid is frustratingly annoying and it's why I turned it off half way through.
Especially playing the United States Army Song when the Swedish Band began playing... that was REALLY annoying...
Fun fact: The one in Canada does not take place in Ottawa, but in the Quebec City Citadel.
Also the polish army cap is gorgeous.
The one from Norway is just some random millitary tattoo, not changeing of the guards...
dont forget these guys are from sparta and many heroic deeds so let them be.
and yet, you missed the most elegant ones: Denmark
(like the British/Canadian, but with shorter commands and without the silly movements)
Does anyone know what march the Canadian band is playing as they march onto the parade grounds?
its so clear that an american made this video
Who dressed the greek guard his parents or his granny? Good kid 😊
It's an historical uniform from the independence wars. Yaya (granny) would definitely have approved.
The best one is Gyeongbok Palace's
My favorites are Russia, Poland and China. The rest are just funny with their little steps... Greece is generally a comedy.
28:26 Turkey best
Their helmets look ugly
@@lemonfish245 and not only !
Unless Japan is out.
Lord Helmet was a Turk!
I have never responded to comments from people who support their countries to belittle and ridicule them. I see that this behavior is a Western culture and tradition. even worse, I have a feeling it's in your blood. wherever you are, you have these egos of superiority, supremasists and you disrespect other ethnicities. continue like this, already that the world hates you, you will arrive at a critical moment where you will have no more friends and only enemies. on those days don't cry if you disappear because the world knows it's in your genetics to be vermin!
I hated doing drill in the British Army but there is a sort of logic to it derived from several hundred years of fighting in straight lines. These days the British Army needs police protection.
The American thing looked just plain odd with a weird moonwalk and that weapon inspection might explain why there are so many firearm accidents in the US.
The Greeks must have a great sense of humour.
Goose step marching just raises the question why? It is also is a warning from history.
The Scandinavians looked to be having fun all dressed up and the Dutch could just about be bothered to turn up.
The Turks looked sinister.
Was that the whole Monegasque Army?
Space balls was great success in Turkey obviously.
Why Americans cat walking?
Good question! Hopefully someone can answer it.
We don't actually know how to do things.
@@christabor4909Don't be disrespectful. Those guards are highly elite and protecting the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Their steps are precise and calculated, it's not just some silly walk.
吵杂中的童话世界
It's all Greek to me...
It’s said that Greece is one of the birthplaces of civilization.
@@theworldandgeorgechan3844 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@theworldandgeorgechan3844 in Greece they were called choliades or evzone, the first mention of them is from the time of Homer
With respect to their service, there is not enough money in the Greek treasury to convince me to dress in that uniform and do a skit of ministry of silly walks. I commend all of them, not one of them smiled.
Greece evzones great
