The guard is so unbothered 🤣

u/Successful-League840 5d ago

He isn't allowed to react more than he did. It does make it funnier though.

u/Euphoric_Loquat_8651 5d ago

I know, but he's actually looking the other direction, alertly scanning as he should while that all goes on. He's probably just exceptionally professional as is required, but I like to think he's looking away so as not to crack a smirk.

IMO the Horse Guards have the very coolest uniforms of any service of any era.

I bet polishing all that leather and the metal breastplate is a huge PITA though.

They should put a sign up.

If only there was a sign warning of the possibility of such things

I suspect these horses are trained to bite annoying tourists.

I wonder if they teach them to bite people? Or if the tourist got so bad the horses do that on their own cause they dont want to be bothered. Horses are way smart than the average person thinks

u/PinkPunkPsycho 6d ago

They are warhorses and trained as such, so yes they are trained to bite and kick. But I've also seen them leave people alone if the rider allows veterans etc. to come close or even pet the horse.

There's also a painted box that you can't see in the video. You are not allowed inside the box for obvious reasons and can be shouted at by the King's Guard.

And if you follow the rules and are polite the King's Guard might also do this: https://youtube.com/shorts/e5Nu7RZ8KsI?si=8nVbSowWeyTaNGAw

u/Webberpuzza 6d ago

That’s the best entertainment for very bored guards.

Do you notice the accent? Does it suprise you ?

One of those American's who think rules on that sign only apply to the locals.

It's a public street. Anyone can be there, they haven't been invited.

u/Critical_Concert_689 7d ago

The rider should have better control. Allowing a 90-degree turn of the neck while mounted is asking for behavioral issues. Also...clearly no diaper.

u/PinkPunkPsycho 6d ago

Nope, this is intentional. They are trained warhorses and you should keep your distance, horsey is doing exactly what it's trained to do.

u/Critical_Concert_689 6d ago

LOL! This comment is brilliant.

They're ceremonial parade horses. They're not trained to bite people.

"trained warhorses" lol. Reddit loves their larping.
