They are both soldiers. It's just that one is in ceremonial uniform and the other is in combats. 😊
Thanks for letting me know 😊 @@helencutler-hu1jg
Well done! ..people don't understand..che i Cavalli possono essere molto pericolosi!
Omg that little boy dress in uniform so adorable he even acts like a guard so nice to see 😁🏴🐝🇬🇧
There should be a barrier between the crowds of people and horses and guards for safety. They are an absolute hindrance. Insulting the guards. Messing with the horses reins. Its totally unacceptable. They soon complain when the horse bites them. Having a barrier woul stop all there stupid rude behaviour! The guards and the horses deserve better than this.
Yes definitely..
Only place in the WORLD where you can approach a military guard post and make physical contact with the guard without repercussions. Allow the troopers to use their sabers to protect themselves and their horses.
I completely agree, the tourists think it's funny when the guards scream at them so they deliberately provoke them. They don't realise that these people are not just a tourist attraction, they are real soldiers doing their job. At one time an attack on the King's guard was seen as an attack on the King himself. There are so many people crowding around constantly touching the horses and they get agitated too. Barriers would definitely be a good idea for all concerned.
@@abuelafromhell yes I agree but also a notice saying do not touch or go near the horse's they're on duty or something to this affect, tourists think it's funny for the quardsman to shout they have no respect whats so ever ..
Another Trooper/guard needs to stand near the horse and control the touching and goading of the horse and Trooper!
I had the thrill to visit the Horse guard Castle! Absolutely wonderful! I'm tired of these tourists with no manners and their disrespect for these dedicated horsemen who do an amazing job. The crazy poses with the horses is unbelievable!!
They saw all that horse went through, and they just don't care. They still bombard him and leave him no room to breathe. It just never ceases to amaze me.
Love it to see the little Kings Guard salute the Boss so much respect. Hope the Boss took time to acknowledge him to❤
Those horses are beautiful 😊
I often think, the horses look down at the tourists and say to themselves "Glad I have more intelligence than the majority of this lot"
The Guards and Horses should be protected at all times. NO ONE should be allowed to get near the Guards or the horses. There are extremely mean people that are waiting for the opportunity to do harm! Wake up!! Protect the Guards and horses!!
Never seen both the boxes from that viewpoint before. The officers look great in ceremonial uniforms. Thanks for a great video. ❤
People will do to the guards, what the guards allow them to do! Barriers and crowd numbers and restrictions should be in place. Fines and arrests will instill respect and discipline in the public for the palace guards. 🇨🇦
I feel for the horses and their guard. Understandable if the horse gets skiddish at times. Umbrellas, movements from the crowds, chatter and touching can ruffle even the best trained horse. If they had old tired plow horses they are more settled, but something a working guardsmen would use. I absolutely adore horses, grew up on a horses back basically. Bareback, twine around the neck and I was always barefoot 😊. Wish I was a young girl again. It would be lovely to be riding again. Love from Canada 🇨🇦 🍁
Yep! At the end of the day horses are prey animals, no matter how old and meticulously well trained they are.
I think byje big problem is tourist dont know these are armed forces people they think they're Disney
I love seeing the little boys dress up like guards in all the videos. Good parenting, too.
Don't blame him at all. Seeing the amount of plebs I would definitely wanna get out of there
Silly for people to sit on the ground when horse is playing up They couldn't move in time if the horse went their way
It's kids on a outing sore wee feet😂😂😂
Why do so many commenters like to say disrespectful things about the tourists? If they shouldn’t be there, then this should be closed.
@@Ripplesinthewaterspersonally? I think they’re being stupid. I’ve seen plenty of these videos where the horses’ “personal space” is completely ignored. The warning sign is there for a reason. Yet tourists still walk up to the horse without regard for their safety or that of anyone else. I would assume the guards’ horses are selected for temperament among other traits. Having said that, animals can have off days too. Then it’s on the guard to read his horse’s mood and demand space for the horse.
This is what I missed. Them stepping down and lead the horses out
Beautifull horses. That fresh team of horses and guards ai found beautifull because the horse on the right is so much bigger than the otjer one. And the other horse says nope not today much to crowded for me.. Oh sorry I will calm down and do my job mister soldier.. 😂😂😂
Its no pleasure at all, watching all these people standing around doing nothing at all. They are not interested in the history or the horses, its just a means of killing some time and ticking a box when they get back to wherever they came from.
You'll confuse people with these titles. There's enough ignorance about these regiments as it is. They are both King's Guards in the Household Cavalry and they are both active duty soldiers. These titles give the impression that the guys in camo are military and the guys in ceremonial uniform are something else. The only difference between these two men is that one is on ceremonial duty today and the other isn't. Tomorrow the guy in ceremonial uniform will be back in British Army camouflage and the guy in camouflage may well be on horseback in ceremonial uniform. I thought the point of these channels were to be informative. The regiment is active duty with a small amount of its time engaged in ceremonial functions. "King's Guard helps fellow King's Guard" would be a less misdirecting title. Edit: I've just come from a rather frustrating conversation on Quora with a particularly "gifted" US citizen about this very issue. I'm still riled up lol.😆
Well said, and theoretically like the footguards they are only known as the Kings Guard if the King is in residence in London.
Quite correct. Well said!!
When he is at Windsor then the Windsor Castle Guard becomes the Kings Guard, same principle when the King is at Holyrood, the Royal Regt of Scotland become the Kings Guard
Go and have a cup of tea and a digestive, then a soak in the bath, that should do it. !
Ignorant people can be corrected. Stupid people won't be corrected. Choose who you go into battle with as time is precious and you don't want to waste it on the latter.
Good afternoon! It's already Thursday again this week. I hope the rest of the week brings you good health and good things. And always cheering you on in your beautiful/fascinating activities. ^^
Me being a man who just turned 59 today I must realize that me visiting London is most likely not going to happen ever. The thing is I love history so I sort of count on these videos to see what I may have heard or read about. For example explaining to people Whitehall is not wear Jack the Ripper went to. So using what I know it is not often 2 regiments would be on duty at the same time in the same location. The guy in camouflage is the same regiment as the folks in the dress uniforms. The officers are the same regiment and I appreciate them engaging in conversation. So anyway thanks for the video and lots of love from Canada. Btw when a horse is a bit freaked out get the hell out of the way instead of sitting there gawking. One stomp could easily crush bones including the skull.
I actually had the opportunity to do a year of school abroad in Switzerland. During the spring break I spent a week in Paris then took the train under the channel and sent to London. By myself and I was 62 at the time. It is never too late. I did visit the Horse Guard Palace. What an unforgettable thrill! Follow your dream!
Amazing
It's too many people. The horses are probably overstimulated.
This place has turned into a social club that's what this is now. This is why so many people show up, stand around, and talk drinking coffee. They I are doing nothing. Sad
I would happily join them if I could. 😊. Instead I have to settle for videos where I can't experience the atmosphere of the occasion - but then again, many of the tourists will ruin the experience with their behaviour. 😢
I wonder about the use of steel shoes on pavement. If the horses shoes had some sort of rubber layer I wonder if that would give them better grip?
Too much noise from the 2 legged horses and so the majestic horses are disturbed.
Horse is having a serious nope!🙀
Adoro ver este vidios mas o que me estressa e essa multidão turistas se educasam 😡😡❤❤
Feel sorry for the horses.
Those guards would kick your ass no problem. They are highly trained and have total authority, the sword or pike alone would stop you. No guns visible but should a shooter bring a gun up he would be picked off right now from unseen guards
Nope not today, I'm not going in there 😅
Pobres caballos también se estresan con tanta gente😢
Ils en ont peut-être ras- le- bol ces chevaux de tout ces protocoles... immobiles pour eux,si bruyants pour leurs oreilles et stressants pour leurs yeux...ah! Ces humains !!!
Usual misleading title 😮😮😮😮
this didn't happen this morning...this morning it was blues changing to reds...not this at all
There's your s>gm
How long is each shift ?
One hour.
Try rhis in there own country be arrested for even shot
I dont blame the horse at all knowing it has to stand surrounded by morons for an hour or more.
Should not be sitting on the ground.
Winter coats covered the chubbier ones
Far too many People around.
Seems all these horses could do with a couple of miles gallop to work out the jitters.
Warum versperren die Menschen alle zugänge? Damit sie nichts verpassen👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻❤ ist für Wächter u Pferde❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why the guards slap the horse in the side? Can someone tell me?
It's to show the horse that his duty is over for the day
@@susanbotterill6725 thank you..
Have the uniforms changed? I do not remember the guards wearing black boots.
It's a fairly recent innovation that started during the Napoleonic wars 1803-15
@@rogerfielding1117 what a gentleman with such a helpful response.
@@rogerfielding1117 lol
Ils ne portaient pas des ……. Tennis !!! 😂
“Recent innovation started in 1803”. Lol, only in the old world is this recent.
Is that older man( without braids) in the red a Chelsea pensioner.???
Yes
People don't have any respect .Why put horses and good people through it. Sell the horses ,lock the gates and use that money for the good of the country.
These visitors really think this is like Disney World and it’s just put on for their benefit they really don’t understand this is for real.
There Shouldn’t Be a Regiment of horses any longer! Just for Parade
Really ????????????????????????
Can’t say I disagree
This seems so cruel to me. How long do the horses have to stand there? 😢 the guards take all kinds of abuse. I would think they would stop this idiotic act. Those guards do nothing but bring in tourists. It maybe a custom but should we not change with the times?
The horses stand there for just one hour , and I can guarantee you the horses are not abused , they are better treat than you and I. The guards are highly trained soldiers , ready to go to war in case one start.
Traditions are what brings history to life and we British are exceptionally proud of our traditions on the whole. Most soldiers are proud to wear their uniform.
Than you everyone. I feel better. I thought they were made to stand there for like eight hours but one hour not a problem. I understand tradition you’re right, it does bring history to life.
@@Sophiecjp No worries, yeah 8 hours would definitely be cruel lol.
Most horses if left alone will nap. Standing.
Horse is smarter than the guards. Lol
I don't see the point in posing with the horse like so many do. I would love to see this but I don't need to see myself.
Maybe the horse wants a day off
Royalty has now lost all it's dignity with such tourism greed and loss of Queen. It's a gong show now . No wonder guards get made fun of. It is exposed for its crimes and no one of younger age takes it seriously rampaging through the beautiful dignity of horse guards Disneyland. Camilla 'queen' pretty well tops it all!
Excuse me, can anybody explain why there is the police and military as well? For me as a foreigner it seems police has enough power to handle rude visitors. Please could anybody explain? ❤🥹
