Im an American and I would very much like to know why an exemplary soldier, who has been appointed to be a royal guard, mounted on a well bred and spirited horse belonging to the crown, must tolerate being degraded to the level of goats in a petting zoo? It hurts to see this.

[juliechristie]

Im so glad they have an emergency button, i was a little surprised how long it took somebody to come out to check on him and his horse though. I can imagine how much these horses and guards have to be patient and calm. And i just wish there was some type of barrier to stop people getting too close. Both are stunning in their approach to their duties.

I really wish there was a wde exclusion zone around these Guardsmen and Horses. Space and respect by tourists would help a lot.

[jaxbarny]

These horses are well looked after and trained, but like all living animals they get pissed off to, that guard knew the horse was not happy. That’s shows good horsemanship 👍🏻🇬🇧

[lesliegreenberg]

I don't understand why there is no barrier that keeps the tourists at an appropriate distance from the horses. Apparently they think that the warning sign doesn't apply to them. I can only imagine how relieved the horses and guards are when they go off duty!

[susanmuir]

Sensible to take the horse back to the stable, he was very unsettled. It's amazing what they and the troopers have to put up with. The noise, crowds and constant patting is a lot for the horses to cope with, all credit to their riders.😊

I’ve been a horsewoman for almost 50 years. From what I can see, the horses are wearing double bridles, which means there are two bits in their mouths; a mild snaffle (the “O” shaped ring) and a more severe curb bit (the “S” shaped bit). Or, a Pelham bit. The Guards are holding onto the curb rein, which gives a more severe check than the snaffle. Plus, from what I also witness, the bits may be too large in length. I’ve also noticed most of the horses toss their heads, and constantly play with the bits, which tells me they are not comfortable. One horse, in another video, even got his tongue over the bits (the tongue must remain under the bits), which means the Guard no longer has control of the horse, which can be dangerous. These horses not only have to deal with uncomfortable bits, they also have countless tourists approaching them, petting them, grabbing the reins, etc., it’s no wonder some of these horses don’t look happy. 😢

To think they have to stay in position and put up with human stupidity for 1h... This has to be one of the most stressful work shifts in the whole world... Honour and respect to the Guards and their horses.

[AshleyMickelsen]

Even horses have bad days. The guard did an amazing job contrilling the horse and keeping calm. Hope this horse got a few extra apples and carrots 😊

[karenallen]

These soldiers are excellent riders. Their ability to keep an agitated horse contained and under control in such a small crowded area are impressive. The tourists don’t even have the sense to step back and quit posing for pictures and videos when the horse is about to lose it.

The behaviour of tourists has changed a lot over the past 30 years. When my cousin was in the Lifeguards (one of the two division of the Household Cavalry) tourists were respectful, quiet and kept their distance. Now that his son is in the same regiment it has really changed: there are far more tourists and they don't seem to know how to behave in general, and around horses in particular.

[nanaj]

The guard knew that horse was about to play up, they can tell by the way the horse’s bodies tense up and the head throwing. Those guards are so in tune with their horses it’s wonderful. ❤

[lauratalmage]

Thank goodness these King's Guards have that panic button. That is one horse that has had enough. And who could blame him.

[Moriartycent]

I have a lot of respect for these soldiers. Their training, their determination, and dedication are phenomenal. To have the patience to sit through throngs of tourists who don't read signs, who don't seem to understand that these soldiers are indeed working soldiers. They aren't for ornamentation. Be respectful to them.

[gingergreenhill]

I'm not a horse woman and could see the horse was in some sort of distress by his agitated manner. The soldier did a good job trying to control the situation on his own while help was coming. I liked the point when the horse said, "nope! I'm outa here!" 😀

[jennyschocklin]

I will say it sign : Do Not Touch the Stand Back....then, post a policeman close to enforce...these men (police) just stand around in a group (inside the gate) chatting, and/or opening /shutting gates...AND, move the crowds back at least 15 feet, no ifs or buts...DO IT...
Kudos to the King's Guards for their dedication.... Thank You for your Service~~~

[sylviabeam]

This guard showed true horsemanship. To fully understand and read his horse's emotions is rare in horsemanship these days.

[PaganPunk]

Its not a damn petting zoo!! Drives me mad constantly seeing this....LEAVE THEM ALONE! ❤🇬🇧❤️

[modestyblaise]

When are the powers that be going to stop the blatant abuse of our fantastic guards and their beautiful horses?

[valeriemeldrum]

These guards and their horses are so patient with all this frenzied attention by sightseers. My hat goes off to them. Can't they see how disturbing they are to that poor horse .
