I think it's time that the actual courtyard and the area immediately in front of Horse Guards is made clear of all tourists and only small, supervised groups are permitted inside during proscribed hours. It really is an indignity for professional soldiers to be subjected to this constant harassment by members of the public. At the very least "guardians" - like at Windsor Castle should be around to make sure that visitors keep their distance and treat the Sentries with proper respect.

I've wondered why they don't do that. It's sad that the guards have to tolerate this, and it's harder for them to pinpoint threats, because of the gaggle of people all around them like this.
I totally agree. People seem to have no manners at all. Plus it must be a personal security risk allowing crowds to gather around him and behind him like that.
Why do you think they are dressed in their 19th century ceremonial dress rather than the usual fatigues? Because it is MEANT for the tourists and visitors! There is nothing for them to guard at this location, other than The Horseguards museum. Their barracks is miles away, other than a place behind two wooden gates here, only used as a resting place for this duty. Any soldier is properly briefed about people wanting pics taken next to a man or woman wearing this garb, and not to be too aggressive about it. They are serving soldiers, not easily offended kids.
@Real Aiglon Their primary function is to act as sentries whereas ornaments have no purpose other than to look aesthetically pleasing. That's why I used the word ornaments.
Why don’t people understand that these are NOT actors playing dress up but actual soldiers, many who have served in war zones, SHOW THEM THE RESPECT THEY DESERVE!
@@kpopfan674I'm from America and even I know that these are very real soldiers and those weapons they carry are very real. If you don't believe me then look them up on youtube. There are many documentaries on them.
@@tracyjohnson4486 So? When they're working as in the above video, they're wearing silly costumes from the 1800s, totally impractical, and carrying swords, not guns.
@@kpopfan674 I'm so thankful that I grew up with the military. My dad was a soldier in the army. He taught us to have respect for all military branches weather they be enemy or alli. Because despite politics they give up a lot more to protect their country. Oh and by the way, every country have uniforms that are for ceremonial/formal use. And none of them are practical. And those swords are very real and can be used as a weapon. I wonder if they were allowed to use those swords to stick a few rude people in the backside people might start to see that they are very real.
Wow, I’ve never seen so many knuckle draggers in one place. He’s not a toy for you to play with, he’s a human being who serves his country. Show some damn respect!
@Real Aiglon Quite right they weren't forced and chose to join. That is one of the reasons we should respect them. Just have a real deep think where we would be without them, as well as all other members of military personnel having made that choice.
Treat the guards as humans. Do these ignorant tourists think they are in Disney land?The British are too accepting and calm.It wouldn't be allowed here in France.
@@gavinpaice8008 don’t be such an ass. The French have elite soldiers same as we do but they would not allow tourists to treat their soldiers so disrespectfully. This seems to get worse and worse now every moron has a camera phone. Time it was stopped.
They are guards first ambassadors second. He did not have to allow those pictures to taken. The thing that amazes me is how they walk with those boots while carrying a sword, the scabbard, wearing that heavy helmet and making it look easy. Total class
@@hermiendrridder875 I was just thinking the same- this looks like the height of a British Summer- blazing sunshine and all those tourists in Summer clothes 🥵
A British army Trooper stands guard at one of the entrances to the most famous palace in the world guarding a monarch with only a sword....that should tell you something. Stand to trooper and well done!
And not one of those tourists even said 'thank you' to the poor guy whose space they were invading. What a lack of consideration for someone just doing his duty. Don't they realize there is a human being inside that uniform?

@@beakytzw Nowt worse than flamin’ ignorance. This is a duty being carried out by a professional soldier and all the tourists know is inane cackle. Not on my watch. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
It really boils my water how tourists treat our troops, wouldn't like it if same happened to their military. Total disrespect and needs to stop so many people being around them, its intimidating!
If i had had to do this during my time in the army i am not so sure i could have been as professional as this young man. He is a soldier on duty, have some respect you ignorant people get your photos but not invade his space so much.
Look at him! Just look at him, stood there unflinchingly in all his magnificence. His adoring fans gazing upon him, as if he were some sort of god, and that concept wouldn't be far from the truth. As they stand there in awe, next to him, taking in the electricity and manly muskiness emanating from his every pore, his sinews like guitar strings, knowing little pain or fatigue, his fans can't help but wonder, why it is that he chooses to do what he does. It is not for respect or often the lack of. But it is for duty to his country, his Queen, or King, and for the fraternity and cameraderie and brotherhood that is seldom to be found in any other theatre. Such is his pride in his chosen brotherhood, and the acceptance he feels from his brothers in arms. And the uniform, that awe inspiring uniform that he wears with such pride and dedication. THESE things are what sets this Man apart, and helps him to grow, understanding truly, what it is to be a MAN. Awesome!
@Real Aiglon yes because they weren't forced to join is a reason to respect them. They did not join up to be shown disrespect. We should show respect for each other regardless of profession, gender, colour or sexual orientation.
@@adamw1944 I don't think they suffer at all. I expect and hope they see a source of amusement and have a good laugh in the mess afterwards after seeing some very sill tourists.
how as the guard got so much patience ? ? i"m sure the tourist thing that the guard is a statue ? until he suddenly MOVES and frightens them GOOD ON HIM
the guard behaved really professionally, a simple stumping warned those two to stay clear from the, and allowed all the tourist to take pictures with him.
I think all this people take pictures with any of guards don't even said thank you even though he can't answer back not because he's rude its because the rules but it would be nice to hear that just for they're service
It irrates me that people are so rude .The Guards are people not a statue that is there for people to take photos of . I understand that the Guards are used to these obnoxious people. Add to the rudeness is not one of them even say thank you. People just assume that the Guards are there for their amusement.
When i used to do st james palace years ago ,sometimes when a tourist used to come and stand beside me for a picture,i used ti stand to attention shoulder arms and commence marching,well it helped dass the time,a couple of tmes sometimes you could get talking to a young lady while standing at st james and this was before mobile phones i used to arrange to meet them at punch and judys covent garden ,i used to say bring a friend and ill bring a mate,this was very early eighties.Also when i was a corporal at tower of london at the entrance ,we used have a little room where we used to sit in daytime cant remember too much of what i was supposed to do even then but i had a nice american girlfriend studying in london ,came to visit me when on duty.There also used to be a little booth just outside great for popping out in tunic and forage cap for a packet of cigarettes.Needless to say within a year of me reeiving my corporal stripes they were taken off me,but i can honestly say that posting in london chelsea barracks was a brilliant postingearly eighties kings road fantastic
Honestly, I don't think it he got angry at all, and was polite to let them finish their selfie since they took it and put their phone away before he left, otherwise he wouldn't have left his post but instead just given the order "stand back". I think he just moved to a different area for a different reason and simply waited for the guys to take their picture. They weren't disrespectful at all, and it's a usual expectation that visitors will take photos with them as long as they aren't being disruptive. Being military myself, I don't find being disrespected or treated as an object for someone wanting to take a picture with me. Those with the loudest complaints most likely never served a day in any Armed Forces. It's not like they were being goofballs trying to make him laugh, obstructing his view, getting too close, or touching him
How would these idiots like it if the soldiers came to their place of work, laughed at them, stared and took photos with them as if they’re dressed up Disneyland characters?
I totally agree with Richard Bond No Tourist has the right to annoy and harass the Guards and their Horses yet the Soldiers name their tormentors as Karen's those that pull reins and swamp the poor horse with multiple touching of the animal on his face the horses hate it There are those who go their determined to make as much harassment noise even touching of the Guards that they can it's become a joke with them and they laugh at the discomfort caused Unless these people are put outside the gates , one day things will go too far it is a circus please put a stop to these people having a laugh at our Guards and their Beautiful Horses Now. . .
The guard is human, come on people have some respect for them. The public are very difficult to tolerate. Rudeness is the problem. God luck to the guards.
Back in the 60s you were never allowed to cycle through h g p and we showed those SOLDIERS respect Those morons today don't even say THANK YOU very rude they should be ashamed of themselves
Tourists should Not stand behind guards. They are not for display,...and they are not on holiday. If there was any kind of threat ,they would Not be able to react, surrounded by so many tourists.They are Guarding...it should be Obvious.
No respect for these guys they stand in there way they don't move out of there way its unbelievable they are going there job at horse guards gates people shouldn't be aloudto go pass those gates let those soldiers do there job for King and Country god bless them
Totally agree these men are Warriors. Have seen action. The disrespect should be noted. The best thing is to have a specific area for photos but not the crowds as we see
It is time this stopped, these soldiers deserve to be treated like a Respected person not some toy please stop this disgusting practice our country does not need it !!!😢
Robert Smith, No of course they don't they will have forgotten (as will 99% of the other muppets who have their photo take) by the next day. It just something to tick off when visiting London. And of course they almost certainly could not approach a Guard in their own country.
People seem to think of these guys as a big joke all they wanna do is torment them and get selfies and pics with them like they dress like that just for show like it's a Walt Disney character or something like these guards are just standing around for there amusement .it literally would get on my nerves day in and day out people touching me being rude not moving out of the way I have even seen an a**hole not move out of a guards way making the guard go around him and then you hear him call the guard a f*cking jerk .like wtf really .

Tourists who come 2 London these days R so bloody rude! Why can’t they respect the guards’ space???
I have never seen a tourist, not one, ask permisssion or say thank you. Military personnel, in any form of uniform, are not models posing for the public benefit. They are on duty.
I’ve been watching these videos for a couple of months now and I have a few questions. The swords/sabres are ceremonial in there polish but… Are they manufactured to be utilitarian in battle? Are they sharpened? Do they train in the use of these weapons in a real fight? (No disrespect is intended, their duty is to guard so I suspect they are real weapons. I’m just curious about their utility.)
People just walked up to him like he was supposed to be there just to take pictures with him. They have no respect for this guard. It’s just the audacity of people.
I think it's time that the actual courtyard and the area immediately in front of Horse Guards is made clear of all tourists and only small, supervised groups are permitted inside during proscribed hours. It really is an indignity for professional soldiers to be subjected to this constant harassment by members of the public.

Crowds need to be kept at a distance. Guards can't do their job properly. Like a zoo
Why are bikes allowed. Give me strength
People can be so stinkin' rude. Shoving their kids up next to the guard, trying to get up close to him. Have some respect. The man is working.
