John, a quick questin for you. I've just watched a couple of shorts by someone I think is on Tik Tok, London something (no, not you) Both titles refenced 'this is abusive and they were referring to the horses. Then a load of 'experts chimed in on both shots, , especially when the horse (who had been taken into the box possibly because it was anxious) when someone approached ( an elder gent) and the horse had a meltdown. All these so called experts were blaming the boxman for holding the reins too tight, causing him to rear, and accusing the rider of spurring the horse. Also they said the boxman was not experienced enough and the usual about the horse standing there for too long. Any ideas ? calling a horse abusive when it's normally provoked by tourists , just got up my nose so I disliked both and flipped back to sanity (you. Any ideas who it might be? I don't watch Tik tok.
I see the good manners have flown out of the window again John. Pushing and shoving each other just to get the picture of the year..
There's a lot of so called " experts " like to pontificate on videos , most because no one pays them any attention ! I find a good way to shut them up was to tell them to contact HCav with their " knowledge and experience " 😁. Or just simply ignore them 😊. I prefer to stick to the expertise of those who post on John's videos .
@@mayajrj Best idea = block those pointless TikTok accounts : )
Totally agree Kath. Too many amateurs experts around, let's just listen to people who know what theyre talking about
Admittedly a horse’s bite power cannot compete with a crocodile or a grisly bear - but then no one would be daft enough to willingly stick their arm in their mouths. But a horse’s jaw is attached to a huge masseter muscle - the most powerful muscle in its entire body. This muscle allows the horse to both bite down and grind food. It’s the muscle you see working at the side of the horse’s face when it’s eating.
A horse’s average bite power has been measured at around 500psi - over twice that of a pit bull and stronger than that of a a wolf. By contrast we puny humans can only boast a bite power of around 160psi So if Waygood had decided to clamp his mouth shut on her wrist it would have stood little chance of emerging in one piece.
Generally speaking a horse is quite willing to respond favourably to attention from humans -unless it feels the need to protect itself. Then it can, and will, turn aggressive through fear more than anything else. The most extreme case I’ve read about is of someone treating a horse abominably. He came out of the conflict without a face - at least not a recognisable one.
So confusing the cavalry blacks as some cutesy little exhibits in a petting zoo is not a smart move. Gorgeous and magnificent as they are read the signs - laid back ears, head tossing, tail swishing, pawing the ground. All indications that the horse is saying “back off.” They deserve respect.
As for moving the bit higher - placing it around one wrinkle higher in the mouth does give the guard more contact through the reins which gives them a bit more control on the nippers - spoilsports!
Excellent feed back thank you.❤❤ 🇬🇧🇬🇧
There should be a small sensor on the reins so that every time someone touches the reins they get a small electric shock😂😂😂just a thought!!😂😂😎🌻
Or a lot of vaults.
That sounds just great!!
Sounds like what the guard shouting does, from what I’ve seen of people’s reactions, lol.
Yessss
Aimed at the genitals
That had to be the Stupidest thing to do, placing your wrist inside the mouth of a horse! She's damn lucky that the animal didn't bite down with his teeth! Broken wrist for sure! It's amazing to me the lack of common sense, and the amount of stupidity shown by tourists when they are close to the horses.
That woman was out of order putting her arm in the horse's mouth. If she had done that with another horse like you said John she wouldn't have been smiling.
There are a lot of strange people in this world and they all visited London ❤❤
Crazy that lady did that. That was perfect timing on that shout from the gates man
Darn. I missed it
The complete ignorance of most of theses people blogs my mind!!!!!!!
Did you notice the reflection of the sky and building across the street on the boxman’s boot? The horse on the left. Amazing. Thanks again for my daily dose of horses, soldiers, London, and of course cheeky John.
This woman has lost the plot , putting her wrist in the horses mouth. If he bites her , the one to blame is herself.
I hope that she didn’t have anything in her hand to hurt the horse
She was reckless...😮 glad he didn't bite down. I don't understand folks who think these horses are pets.
Жаль,что не укусил.
What I’ve learned watching people is that they’re crazy! Who and why would you put your arm in a horses mouth? That’s crazy.!
Lol I have seen people put their wrists, arms, and hands in horses mouth and the genuinely shocked when they get bit. Not just horses either, they do even do it to cattle. Our neighbor has 2 horses and then one large bull and 7 cows. I've seen people stop and do it to then as well. The cows don't use come unless they know you but the bull will. And yes he loves to be petted but if you stick something in his mouth he's gonna eat it, or try to. And it's never kids. It's the adults.
They are narcissistic entitled people that lack respect for the workplace of the Guards and horses. Nasty tourists.
What the heck…why would you put your wrist in ANY animal’s mouth. Even your own pet dog who you trust and know won’t bite. But still, WHY?! That is one of the most bizarre things I’ve seen.
I really loved the StJames Park video, beautiful area.
Good afternoon john what a stupid thing to do putting your wrist in its mouth radan giving hugs now how cute
What a nice guy....bringing you a drink....
Too funny! The look on the royal guard's face is priceless. Tourists grabbing the reins.🤣💂🇬🇧
Came home from work, it was not my best Day😢. Found the video - yea 😊 relaxedwith a cup of tea.
But then that fabulous grey and trumpeter came out. Glorious, apart from the 🐏 🐑 dherp im the yard ,- sorry tourons in the way. Glorious. Thanks for changing your schedule and filming in the afternoon. 😊
I don’t know John people today have no common sense. I am not perfect in any way shape or form but at least I have my manners and some scruples not to do anything stupid when I’m away from home.😂😂😂
LMAO. John looking for a bike to put his cup in. 🤣🤣. You make me laugh everyday, Thank you💜
Stay cool John and have a great week. Love your videos.
Mannequins…😂YOU HAVE HAD too much sun…😂
But they look so life like😂😂😂
What a difference between the quieter and more respectful young Brazilian football team and the very loud "rich" Brazilians (?) from the hotel across the road. Surprised that neither the stableman nor the MOD police didn't tell people to move back just before the trumpeter came out on his grey.
Hi John, any horse has sufficient power in its bite to break a wrist easily, or drag someone about or pull them down. Really there's no accounting for the total stupidity of people who seem to think a huge animal they don't know is a friendly teddy bear.
I have said previously that I knew a woman who had to have two fingers amputated because her horse bit her hand and fingers crushing the bones so badly they could not be fixed. So go ahead you guests who feel so comfortable putting parts of your body in the horses mouth. But no crying should the worst happen.
John, If the bit is too high in mouth the horse appears to be smiling. There should be 2-3 wrinkles at sides - then it’s in right place.
I can't believe people just stood there when the huge beautiful Grey came out, and the Trumpeter had to tell them to move.
It appears Waygood has been talking over stall walls with Raden/Arnie. I see your tongue is firmly planted in cheek today.
There are too many tourists crowding these horses at times. The horses are getting fed up with it day after day. The tourists need to respect these horses and give them their space.
I think the reason why people come up to touch the horse or do STUPID IDIOTIC things is to prove they are not afraid of the horse. I just wish they would leave the poor horse and Guard alone and allow them to do their job. They are after all MILITARY!! IT IS A MILITARY INSTALATION, THEY ARE REAL SOLDIERS ... THE 2 LEGGED AND THE 4 LEGGED ARE SOLDIERS!!! For God's sake show them THAT RESPECT!! Quit treating them as if they are a carnival or zoo. THEY ARE NOT!
I just wonder how many would even consider treating their countries military in this same manner. What would happen if they did? How far would they get in doing so? Would they like other country's tourons to come over and do the same as this to theirs? These types of actions just annoy me to no end.
WHY CAN'T PEOPLE JUST STAND A RESPECTABLE DISTANCE AND HAVE THEIR PHOTO TAKEN AND LEAVE? There is no rule saying to touch the horse in order to have an authentic photo with the Horse Guard.
In Essence I agree with your “Rant” but this is not Normal Circumstances. Yes they are Military but in a Pageantry Form which our Great Country is Famous for, is the envy of most of the Free World and draws in millions of tourists a year and their money in our coffers. These are not ordinary horses either but chosen for their height, stature, temperament, and trained to the hilt to accept the rigours of the career that is their destiny. Is it right? Is it fair? being an animal lover I must say I find it a tad disturbing to see the horses standing still with a weight on their backs for an hour - it must take a lot of Mental Discipline for the beasts and is little wonder a minority “Kick Off” as John calls it from time to time. It is Pageantry though, a Spectacle now, dating back to King Charles 1 in the year 1661 apparently and I am sure you will agree the world has changed since then and the Tilt Yard no longer needs this mode of protecting as we have now more efficient Modern Security. I myself accept it for what it is and if a crowd gathers too close and Disrespects the Horses then it is up to the Trooper on his mount to Shout and Reprimand. He is in charge.
wow! I think this officer is rather a dish in his wonderful uniform
Great day. Very interesting from start to finish!❤😊
I was wondering if the troopers get to put an ice pack down the front of the cuirass in hot weather? Start a petition!! Great video John...thank you!!! xxxxx ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing your video with us today. Enjoy the sunshine.
The horse all wear double bridles so that means 2 bits in the mouth the higher is the bradoon and has plain round rings, this is a gentle bit and the reins lie looser, the lower mor fancy bit is the curb bit and allows greater control with less pressure by the guard, as it acts with the curb chain noseband and head band to apply the pressure to the horse, so the reins are held a little tighter. Horses like to play with the mouth pieces which causes the froth you see, and often get a tongue over (normally when you see the tongue sticking out the side of the mouth the tongue is over the bit). head tossing can cause the tether chain to work loose (the one that goes round the neck) as it can dislodge the toggle.
Horses can sneeze and they are affected by strong scents, like perfume, just like us.
I've noticed occasionally the horses like the scent of little girls. Sugar and spice and everything nice.
@@bonnieweeks7601 I knew a cute spotted school pony who was a civilized beastie only when ridden and handled by prepubescent girls. After they reached that milestone, he became stubborn, mean, and uncooperative, often shockingly so. He bit, kicked, refused to move/speed up, bucked, and/or ran away with them.
I watched so many little girls win so many ribbons on him & fall in love with him. He was beautifully behaved, whatever their skill level, and sure seemed to return their affection. Once in their tweens, those broken-hearted girls were suddenly very ill-regarded strangers to him. It wasn't a weight thing - all were still quite petite - he was almost horse-sized & up to much weight.
He *twice* threw my mother, an experienced rider who'd jumped her own height, and even expended a lot of energy in failing to make it three times. He unsuccessfully attempted to unseat me almost every time I rode him, but I was too many for him, Epona be praised.
Fab video. Thank you. Lovely to see the mid afternoon goings on at Horsegiards. The tourists? Well they were as “interesting” as always 😂
good morning John have a wonderful day. The weather looks fine.😊❤
Have a great day and keep the great videos comming😊
I had a quarterhorse named Ralph. He loved to stick his tongue out and I would tickle it. He was a true gentle giant. I was so glad to see the closing today of horse guards as I have never seen that. You are the best at showing as much as you can, and it is very much appreciated.
Bom dia.sou do Brasil cai no seu site e fiquei emcantada.nao falo ingles mas consigo perseber o que você fala.gosto muito quando você mostra a cidade e os parques. Ja me inscrevi. ❤
If that woman had put her wrist in Ormondes mouth she would be minus a hand.What are people thinking 🤔 😮
Thanks john that coffee went down a treat! 😂
Hi John, this was an interesting part 2! 😊
Any news on the Grey that was injured during the panicked running of the horses? Hope he/she id doing okay. Thanks john. I try to watch all your videos every day.love the commentary.
Last report from the Army said both horses Vida the grey mare and Quaker were recovering but no further information as yet .
Mannequins!! You're funny! 😂
Good timing John lol
You know John, since the Horse Guards (especially the guard on right) don't shout any more, it would help if you and other YT filming would tell people to get off the reins since they aren't acknowledging the pulls that the guard does to get them off. Just tell them the sign says 'DON'T TOUCH THE REINS!' SO GET OFF!! Quit being RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL! I would love to hear you, Buska or any other YT filming tell them, help the Guard and the Police by keeping the RUDENESS away from the horses. Just a request to stop the rein holders that DON'T seem to be able to read. Yeah and then, there are those that like to lean on the Guard's boot, thinking it is OK to do so.
Some people just have no manners intruding on other people's photos 51:44 like this old lady did to the young boy.
No one reads the sign
John another success even if not in early morning walk. Those type of peoe put themselves in danger then cry when what they were doing gets themselves badly hurt.
Lost her moment of concentration. Good horse he spared her from her lapse of horse sense
You are outstanding!!! And a bit of a HOT MESS! 😂😂😂😂
John. The more i watch ..the craziness I see. Sme are really unbelievable..but as you say (it is what it is) take ..always
Hi John,
I understand why you do not video at Buckingham Palace.
I love your walks to horse guard.
Aftrnoon john great video as always
My heart is quickening as you rush to get to the lime bike……will you make it before it’s rented….YES 😅😅😅😅😅
Excellent part 2 John a part from that prat putting her hand in the horses mouth what is wrong with these people. You've got a sign on the wall telling everyone the rules and they completely ignore them. What Morons honestly I'm that mad I'm shouting at the video 😂😂 good job I'm watching it alone. Anyway looking forward to part 3 John Thank you Stay Safe ❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧
There is a pretty Grey in the stable lane 30:32, which means there was a Long Guard yesterday. Ok you saw him as well ;) Besides, I will never understand how people just stop as soon as they see a horse coming towards them. Do they think the animal is going round them?
Wow, great early morning viewing here in New Zealand. Your posts come up first thing.
Wednesday morning here.
The bell still doesn’t have its bing-bong back yet, but it’s got a bing-bing now 😄
THE IDIOTIC BEHAVIOR THESE GUARDS & HORSES PUT UP W/IS STAGGERING
Shouting.!!
FYI: There is a video by Forces News
How the Household Cavalry is Keeping its horses cool
Its from last yr and shows what they do when they take them back in, from rub down,bobbing apples and special mash replacing electrolites.
You can tell people then how they are well cared for. 😊
Looks a great time to see horse guards is late afternoon with less people about
Thank you John.
It all depends on the type of bit in use, as to how high it sits close to the cheek.
John I have often thought that some woman where strong smelling perfume I find it very suffocating.
Hi John, what is a long guard, and what do they do? I don't want to sound stupid, but I'm not from the UK, so I have no idea. I know they are military, but we don't have them here in the United States that I'm aware of.
Super detail here: householdcavalry.co.uk/museum/blog/the-kings-life-guard/
The last guard on the right is probably my fave. It always seems like he has a grin under the chin strap. I know he doesn't, but I like to think so :)
Love raden ,they,re all amazing
Love the grey and the trumpeter telling them to make way❤
John, why are some people call Raden as Arnie? ARNIE is flawless, no socks whereas RADEN have socks on the right hind leg & foreleg. Since you have a proficient knowledge in horses names, could you please kindly clarify? I appreciate it.
Also, any news regarding The King‘s Life Guards tall, dark, handsome with distinguished grey eyebrows & the fastest horse in the Household Cavalry, INVADER? He’s one of the 2 horses riding behind Queen Elizabeth‘s coffin, the other JAVELIN, a grey horse. That was the last time I saw him. I feel his absence at Horse Guards…
Hi. I can somewhat explain the Rarden, Arnie difference. The original Arnie was all black. We don’t know the real name of that horse. John wasn’t reading the hoof numbers back then. Because Rarden is a nipper and a saucy girl someone started to call her Arnie. So a lot of people just started calling her that. John started reading the hoof numbers and found out her real name and that she is a mare. Hoping that helps. 😊
Catching the money shots today. Rodham now on the left
❤soon as the camera man said the horses name the horse was focused on him, I loved that but I still feel people should not touch the palaces guards and animals too because the animals are guards, they can hurt you and kill you. People are too busy taking pictures that’s crazy. No respect ❤
Love your videos😊
27:16, way to go John! Coffee cup problem solved. Of course, if the wrong person sees this video you may be arrested for littering. I have wondered why there is no waste bin anywhere near the Guards.
Is this a new craze? Never seen so many touching the boots 🙀
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧💙💜🩵🐎🐎🐎
Lol Madame truso's mannequins haha
JOHN, who can we write to about changing many of the expectations for the tourists to follow? There’s no one acting aggressively enough to protect the Guards . most people have no common sense so they need more guidance on proper behavior. It’s so chaotic and unfair to the horses and the Guards.
Hey John, I hear there’s a trashcan behind the Guard shop 😂
😂
I sincerely hope the Life Guards are getting their 'time 'n 'alf' for having to do the extra day.
Working on yuh sun tan John. Hello again from Fremantle Western Australia 🇦🇺
Give the cup to the guard shop
Right side horsey is Ransom.
Brilliant as ever Geli - thank you!
Thank you 🙏 I can remove the ?? From my list 🤣
Oh yahooo. Thank you Geli. 😊
you forgot because you were thinking about the brunette green-eyed police woman 😊
That lady was very lucky not to have her wrist injured! 😬
I saw a title Arnie is nipping everyone by Abdullah,would it be the same day you were filming John?😊
Possibly, but I couldn't say with absolute certainty as I was only at Horse Guards yesterday afternoon.
OMG it’s mind boggling that no more serious accidents , injuries haven’t occurred yet “Horsepower “ ears back , head up and down, horse moving forward’s, backwards ❗️❗️especially with tiny 👧 I agree about the bit and they’re tongs get stuck . Sorry I don’t want to offend anyone and I’m 😂 and 🫣at he same time! John always a pleasure to watch and a big shoutout to the troopers 👏❤
Lol i hope we get to know the new horses name before its forever remembered as shiny nails. Love the horses personality though.Poor raden is going to board after awhile with his favorite hobby, tasting tourists!
GM. Waygood on the left. 🏇🏇
Moody Mares back then John
Said Waygood,it's the only horse i recognise with the stripe bending left.
Germaine Greer. Love it!!😎😎
Nice job, we have 20 c at 8:00 am here in Amherstburg Canada we are going up to 28 today
Same here today in Ontario 😊
@@LynnL3588 it is 30c now
@@kizzyarseneau5740 Wow. I am North of Toronto in cottage country so a little cooler. It was 30 the other day. Odd for May long weekend.
I love your comments so funny
So the horse had an agreement with the lady in yellow. You let me nibble on your wrist so other tourists could get Lured in, and I can bite them. Smart horse 😂😂😂
The Horse has been talking to his mates out the back. Biting the tourists helps the boredom. LOL. Don't you have trash bins around London? We have them all over our tourist spots in NZ. You've just answered my question John: Pleased you found a place for your coffee cup. LOL. Seriously; the Horses are really magnificent as are the Guards. A beautiful day in London . . . enjoy . . . Thank you John: Kiwi
For security reasons no trash cans. Not around the Military areas or the government buildings. Dangerous things could be dropped inside.
Yeah the issue is basically due to the fact that back in the 80s when the “troubles” were still a thing, a favourite trick of the IRA was to hide bombs on timers in rubbish bins or parked vehicles. There were bomb attacks in the area in the period, the worst being the one hidden in a parked veh on the Mall which killed several Blues and Royals troopers, both humans and horses. Hence NO parking along the Mall, and NO rubbish bins in the Whitehall area. Yes it’s inconvenient but the reasoning is deadly serious.
Swanoaks,John said in the video that there's no rubbish bins in the area because of the fear of bombs in the trash bins. Good video
@@starvingartist2824 I never thought of that. Thank you for reminding me. We don't have that sort of danger back home.
@@paulinemegson8519 Coming from a country where that is not a problem, it hard to visualize such things happening.
The newborn baby is so cute.
Good evening John as of 21/5/24 xxx
My first thought was, what if someone had something on their skin that is poisonous to horses? I remember visiting horse farms here in Ocala Florida and walking right up to paddocks with million dollar horses in them, Rugged Lark, Secretariat (in Kentucky), Silver Charm. The world today is one where you really can't trust people and their intent.
People should believe the warning sign. A woman at the Preakness stakes this past Saturday had part of her finger bitten off by one of the horses while petting him. The danger is real.
Anyone else think there should be those 'warning' signs on BOTH sides of the horse - because anyone on the opposite side cannot see it. Also I think they should have it in pictogram style too for the non-English speakers. Plus there needs to be signs near the arches to stop meandering tourists. This place is crying out for much better signage!
Hi John I very often pick out my favourite troopers from your videos and send a comment to you. I haven’t seen one from Lifeguards and two from Blues and Royals since I sent a comment to you. Please could you let me know what the troopers do or where they may be posted when not at Horseguards. Just curious :) I hope they have not left the regiment altogether! Thanks Is it just pot luck to see a particular trooper at horseguards if you visit? I guess security has a place to play, quite rightly so, for the troopers. Wonderful daily footage John! Thank you
Postings are not made public for operational reasons. 🙏🏻
it’s not good for the soldiers or horses in this heat. Those poor soldiers must get so hot !!
Why do so many people do such rude, stupid, unkind things to the poor horses and Kings Guards? I mean - seriously bad behavior!
I just talked to the fella who went through the tunnel, he doesn't know why it happened either
