Indeed, but most guards walk so fast (some almost run !) that people often barely have the time to hear or to react, especially in big crowds. Imagine if they make a pregnant woman fall or someone carrying a child, an handicapped person... There's a trooper (I know his name but I think that's not OK to spread his personal info online), he always walks slowly, I think I've never seen him shout, he just walks between people and I think that's a better method especially when people are packed.

There are plenty of videos of him shouting at tourists touching him when standing in front by the gates. He had a moustache at the time, so looked a bit different.

@@isabelros2947 That's why I typed "..." as a "etc" (but the comma is missing, sorry about that) because I can't name every situation. 😋 Exactly ! I too understand the tradition but I think that at this point, if they don't want to be more flexible they should forbid people to access the yard and this part of the sidewalk, like people should stand behind the black poles and that's it. No one should be allowed to touch the horses or to stand that close to the guards anyway so that would be more safe and less stressful for everyone. There's one guard in particular who's thicker than the other ones, he has a mustache and looks a bit older, he's always very aggressive in the way he walks and speaks for no reason, he walks like a tank with his weight forward ready to make fly anyone who would be standing on his way and I really don't understand this type of attitude because it doesn't look militaristic to me, just ridiculous.

Thank you

Just waiting on someone asking if their kid can sit on the horse with him

Could it be your equipment? The picture on my phone screen is crystal clear.

They can't put barriers around them the horse and guard could get hurt in an emergency .

are you serious? these people are on military barracks!! he is a military soldier doing his rounds!! if you are in the way of these military soldiers from doing their job, they have the right to do anything they can to get you our of the way!! as someone pointed out in the comment section, the horse and guards always have the right of way!! by the way, the guards are not allowed to go around people!! and one more thing, if you got in these guards way, you would be crying for your Mommy, because you would more than likely be on the ground, humiliated!!

@m3gan7737 out gate's is public he's really brave bumping into a little older lady isn't he, common sense says step around her, would he be as brave if it was a 6'4 bodybuilder I have my doubts.

Really it is part of a military base. Please get a clue as she needs to pay attention.

@@dbn52 shouldn't be barging into elderly people get a life

In civvie land he might be out of order, but not the Guards. No one gets in their way. The only person who can get in his way in the King. That's their training and the tourist have to learn the hard way, unless they've looked up the Horse Guards rules of training.

@@user-oo2dv9qq2h I should have said mince pies 😄

I think he is lovely. 😍

@margaretshanahan9754 I'm happy for you. Send him a big box of chocolate biscuits, he'll love you back 😁

I think you need to show respect

Such a derogatory comment. I'd live to see be able to get up there and do they job! They only go this 10am til 4pm. Then they have to everything else. Also, this is a lady guard. You should lay of the drugs mate!
