When I went to England, some people were being total dicks to them. I said something to the people and it turns out they couldn’t speak English but they stopped. As I was walking by a royal soldier on horseback said “cheers” to me and nodded his head slightly.
Why can’t people just look, be respectful and move on?
Because clearly they want to be whacked or stabbed by the Guards
@@ninofromkitchennightmares1497 Or shot by 10 rounds if the queen's there because they load 10 rounds into their mags but don't chamber it unless they must.
@@addust no they cant they gun is actually not loaded
@@HectorSalamanca20 When the queen is at the residence, their L85's have 10 rounds in the magazine. Don't believe everything on the internet.
@@addust But what you said here is also on the Internet. Why should he believe you?
On paper, yelling at tourists and just marching around all day seems like a good deal
They still do operational tours so that means some not all could/probley of been in afgan iraq or kozervo

many if not all of the guards in my ex reg hate the ceremonial duties with a passion due to being undermanned and poor organization and more plus you stag on through out the night in the guard room in combats, staging on the tower is the worst one out of all of em

Matsimus Such a classic, that is!
Oh man funny
That's what my teacher screams when he gets into the classroom :/
Nice to see a channel finally do a video about the British army with the correct information, background footage being accurate to the equipment used and non biased. Thank you 👍❤️🇬🇧
Matsimus figured I would see you here
Ha, Matsimus!
Matsimus yeah although the line about the rifles not being loaded is misleading, that's not always the case
1IbramGaunt That's actually correct. All of the ceremonial soldiers weapons are actually unloaded, the other troops who are not on guard are sat around with combat equipment next to them as a QRF or quick reaction force to actually deal with any threat. These guys are alerted by an alarm button inside the hut of which ceremonial troops stand in/out of. Also there are Metropolitan Police officers almost constantly on patrol around the palace.
Thanks Matsimus
Who would win?
A thousand+ tourists
Or
One red boi
lmao
One red boi win
Who will win?

A thousand tourist that are most likely unarmed

Gaius Wyrden we’re not leaving 😉
@Gaius Wyrden yes, it was already voted on
And even if we did leave, they Scots soldiers would likely still guard it, as the soldiers all serve the crown
@Gaius Wyrden Says the nationalistic EU supporter. The IMF have foretasted that the UK is going to grow faster than the EU after leaving.
www.thetimes.co.uk/article/british-economy-will-grow-faster-than-eurozone-rivals-says-imf-k2h3vbdjm
So take your 'massive economic disadvantages' and learn to do some basic research. The EU has the lowest economic growth on the planet. Joining would be like shackling yourself to sinking ship.

I have great respect for these guys; it’s sad however that many people and tourists see them as a attraction or gimmick.
Matt Aaron "hurr durr hey guard man com on here and have a goofy photo with ma kids here"
Viktor Samoja exactly
cause they really are a gimmick lol
Viktor Samoja and you speak for brits? Do you? The royal weddings are some of the most televised showings in the world, millions tune in internationally to watch them. The queen is also a descendant of the first king of England, Alfred the great. They give milllions in overseas aid and support small businesses around the UK. Anyone bright enough to care about history, would realise that our monarchy is a historical gem that we hope lives for many more generations.
Matt Aaron They look like oblivion guards

ok?
@@decasaint532 what ok? If your not gonna say anything then don’t comment
Now, as the queen passed away, they shall be the King's guard again
Well todays your lucky day
3:33 oof...that's going to leave a mark.
ha!
Dillon Bright A couple of marks.
For making way for the queens guard dilly dilly!
3:50 the queens guard rifles are loaded when the prime minister put the terrorist threat levels past a certain point.
It would be impossible for the rifles to fire anything because they're all DP rifles (DP = Drill Purpose). The only difference between a regular rifle and a drill purpose rifle is that the DPs literally have concrete in their barrel to stop them from firing. So good luck shooting any terrorists with those.
Chief Whip they don’t use DP unless on parade, while on sentry the guns are real and the magazines are loaded but there won’t be a bullet in the chamber. They are more ceremonial now as police and CCTV have taken over the front line protection but they are still the last line of defence.
It also when the queen says as she is head of mod you cant disobey her.
Isnt it not loaded and they have a mag in the jacket
Pure radio rifles will always be reddy to fire with a max of about 20 or 30 rounds with safty on when not firing
when the queen is in residence they have loaded rifles as part of royal protocol, i hate how everyone is mocking the "not loaded" comment, there not loaded during non-residence, but when her majesty Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith is in residence, DO NOT PISS OFF THE ROYAL GUARD
It's good to know someone knows HM titles and has respect. There is one Monarch who duly cherishes her people.
@@mightymystery9204 let me just say, im no royalist, but i always stand for the national anthem, i respect people who deserve respect, that is why i use the full title of our ruler
the gun is not loaded lololololollolol
When I was stationed in Germany and we had a terrorist alert, a soldier in combats with a rifle was added to the guard but the magazine was kept in the guardroom safe so there is no way the rifles are loaded when the Queen is in residence. If you bother to look there are armed police alongside the soldiers, they carry loaded weapons. It is the duty of the police, not the armed forces, to keep law and order in the country.
No they always loaded actually.
3:33 "The marchy guards match without stoping regardless of who or what stands in front of them."
There's a bomb on the way.

Great Britain was an American colony all along
There is really conflicting information on if the Queen/King's guard do carry loaded rifles but based on what I have read it appears to be situational as to weather or not the rifles are loaded (but not chambered)
While the Queen/King's Guard is mostly ceremonial but there still tasked with protecting the monarch and there residence.
The Queen/King's Guard also has the authorization to arrest or shoot anyone who poses a threat to the guard or the monarchs safety and well being.
Each sentry box also has a panic button so that should they need additional assistance they can push it.
Didn't knew the panic button stuff, really interesting.
Nope never loaded
James Alexander Always
Loaded, only when there’s a royal family member, also they have loaded magazines
Alright so I did some further reading into it and have some really conflicting information, some say yes the rifles do have loaded magazines others say no...
It seems to be situational but I can't find any substantial evidence that confirms one way or the other.
I will edit my comment accordingly.
@@Generik97 That is probably the intention, somewhat a state secret when they have loaded rifles or not, but your assumption that they have loaded rifles, when someone from the Royal Family is present, seems logical.
When Buckingham Palace is empty, there is "only" the building to guard and damage to a building can be repaired. Damage to a dead monarch, well, not so much...

Aquafina Waterbottle there's a tree?
*Queen gets in the way*
Aquafina Waterbottle there wouldn't be though because the places they march to and from remain the same, they have for centuries, no-one would plant a tree there in the first place. The only things that would get in their way are temporary; cars, animals and people and if they don't move their arses I'm sure you've seen online what happens :)
MAKE WAY FOR THE QUEEN'S GAURD
I'm curious, what if there was an elderly man or woman who struggle to walk in their way while they are marching? They wouldn't just walk into them, surely.
"MAKE WAY FOR THE QUEENS GUARD"
*god save the queen anthem intensefies*
Well uh…
3:50 they are loaded, 10 rounds in the magazine. However there isn't one in the chamber.
This is standard procedure in British Army guards, including the RMP (but they have 30 rounds instead of 10)
Interrogative, do they carry spare mags in case the worst happens?
@@indonesianbassbooster5167 I'm not sure, I believe they rely on the number of them to potential threats, especially when the armed police presence at the moment is pretty high
@@indonesianbassbooster5167 as i heard that if you remember that they have guard room right I heard they keep extra ammunition in the palace guard rooms also the barracks are close to the palace
@@indonesianbassbooster5167 No but they have access to it should the worse happen. It's unlikely an Army would sneak up to London without anyone noticing though... They're more for show than actual use, for a terror attack it'd be next to impossible for anyone to get even close to the palace

Maybe!
Smooth, still, it's the act of standing up for most of the day that must hurt

It's not uncommon to see a member of the Queen's Guard pass out due to the heat. Especially during the Trooping of the Colour in the summer.

Point of note: The Coldstream Guards were founded in 1650, as mentioned in the video, but they were founded as part of Oliver Cromwell's "New Model Army" during the English Civil War (so they represent the English contingent of the Foot Guards).
For reference, the New Model Army was formed by the Parliamentarians (in opposition to the Royalists, who fought for King Charles I) and so the Coldstream Guards were formed in *opposition* to the British Crown. However, they did not get the name "Coldstream Guards" until later, after they had already been inducted into the British Army under the restored monarchy.
As a result of this, the modern Coldstream Guards do not wear the symbol of the crown anywhere on their uniform. While the other Regiments of Foot have crown icons on their tunic buttons, the Coldstream Guards do not; instead, they have a garter star emblem, the same as on their collar.
This is also why the Coldstream Guards are unique in being commanded by an officer of the British Army, and not by a member of the Royal Family.
Additional fun fact: The motto of the Coldstream Guards is "Nul Secondus", which means "Second to None". During ceremonial occasions, the Foot Guards are introduced in the order of their button spacing, starting with the Grenadier Guards. However, this would dictate that the Coldstream Guards come second, since they have their buttons in pairs. Instead, the Coldstream Guards are always introduced last, as a way of honouring their regimental motto.
*"GET OFF THE FENCE"* "Nah, you don't have loaded guns."
catonoy but they still have the ammo to load it and a very sharp thing stuck at the end
*i like fruit*
catonoy. *Guard Loads Gun with ammo from his Pockets in the Chamber* *Click Click*
Alucard they don't tho... hey have covers over their sights so how can they fire back accurately and they would need those sight to be accurate because there are A LOT of tourists there and they wear a highly impractical uniform. And even if they were the primary defence.. then why would they have armed officers at the gate and AR vehicles patrolling the area?
it's ya boi Mozart over time the queens guard has become more ceremonial, as police and technology have expanded they have taken on the front line. Police will patrol outside as they have the jurisdiction, some of the police are armed, if u commit a crime and are not an immediate threat the guard will call the police to deal with u, using a button in there box. But they are the last line of defence, the guns are not loaded but they carry ammo, the sight cover can be easily taken off. And of course they won’t fire into a crowd, they will most likely take cover and wait for back up as they will want to minimise casualties, but if u try to force your way in they will shoot u.
*Insert Joke about French people needing Bearskin to look tall*

Maxime Lechasseur hon hon hon ui ui 🥖

Gabriele Genota To be fair, the French Imperial Grenadier Guards were required to be tall. They used the bearskin to make them more taller and menacing and to project fear. Other requirements for the Grenadier Guards were high accuracy and best performance. And this is probably where the jokes about my height were conceived (French metres are longer).
2:22 every 15 minutes, 10 yards and back

I was lucky to see the Gurkhas guarding the palace. Stupid tourists next to me were complaining that British soldiers weren't guarding the palace. When in fact they were.
they might be even more patriotic than most brits

Mr. Arnold no they weren't. They were Nepalese, serving in the British Army. As many nationalities do.
Sam Sam You are royally spliting hairs, most of them have aquired British citizenship or will soon. And really does that matter? They are serving in British Army and without question would die for the UK. They are probably more loyal to Crown and country than the average brit is.

Some get close, but none have ever had this much accuracy and authentically non biased information, and most present outright false and insensitive information. Thank you for being a very trustworthy and entertaining source of information about history.
When I went to London a couple years ago, we stayed in a hotel by Buckingham Palace. Every morning we would walk by Buckingham Palace during the changing of the guard. It was quite an honor.

I'd have to say the most decorated guards in the world..
What about the marine guards of the tomb of the unknown solider?
Shaun Fleming kinda common uniform worn almost every country.
Shaun Fleming The Queen's Guard actually guard a person of royal blood, and it's a hundred year old tradition, nothing compared to guarding a tomb.
Bill Nye The Russian Spy that's in those tombs anyway.
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is a memorial to the unidentified American soldiers from various wars past. I believe that there are only a handful of them, less than 10.
Now it is Kings Guard.
I love the details of these animations..the kit, rifles and the tunics. Good effort.
Is there a reason why they have the name “Grenadier” guards? Like, do they have a primary role of a grenadier? Chucking grenades at the enemy?
For the last 6 years this is what I thought. Am I right?
Striker - Grenadiers used to be responsible for carrying and throwing explosives when the army had riflemen and fusiliers, back in the days of empire and gunpowder. So you're kind of right, but now it's just a name attached to a regiment.
Striker It think during the battle of Waterloo they defeated the French grenadiers and took the name as like a battle honor.
Faugh a Ballagh You’re correct. Grenadiers full name would be first of foot Grenadier guards.
So as this video is very accurate though the Coldstream are the second not first.
Eventualy the grenadiers became sort of commandos/special forces, sort of like SAS today
Tonda Je Nej no they are not. Para ain't even special forces, neither are commandos.

Yes!! Excellent, Informative & relaxing.
I found this channel doing schoolwork and I like it.
They’re obviously being traditional, so why not have a unloaded musket rather than an unloaded rifle?
Edit: It appears that, according to many replies, guards have a losded mag in their pocket. If thats the case, I understand why they shouldn’nt use muskets.
Because a musket takes two minutes to ready, rather that pulling a mag out your pocket and switching the safety off
Douglas Roempke and because the tradition IS to use whatever the standard service rifle or long-arm of the era is, before this they had SLR's and before that Lee Enfield's and so on
When the country is on high alert the rifles are loaded and they carry a poach of ammunition all the time.
We are on high alert...
I'm pretty sure they are loaded. They just don't want you to know that ;)
