my goddaughter and a friend were there last week. A rather pushy guy was at the horse's head holding out his mobile phone. The horse turned and grabbed the phone out the guy's hand. The phone was damaged by the time he got it back off the horse.

The guards and the police really need to take control of the crowds and the ridiculous behaviour. The guards and their horses are on duty and deserve to be treated with respect.

With the conduct of people getting more brazen, the need a new sign that says DON'T TOUCH THE HORSES!

It really amazes me the amount of disrespect that the tourists give to the guards and their horses... after all they are not standing at their Posts as a tourist attraction!

I'm American and have seen too many of these. It's appalling that the military allows this treatment of their guards to continue. Shows a complete lack of respect for the guards.

What annoys me as much as the total lack of respect and manners, most tourists just seem to assume the guard is their for their convenience and Kodak moment, very few even bother to acknowledge the guard let alone ask if they can do things. A technical note, touching someone without their consent is assault. That’s not being woke, it’s respecting other people.

I know that London is always busy but presume that as the summer goes on then more and more of this poor behaviour will occur as the tourists flood in...time something was done to bring some control to this before somethinhg really bad happens.

I’ve watched quite a few of these videos of tourists disrespecting the guards and horses and I’m appalled at the way they are treated as photo-ops, theme park cast members and historical curiosities. They’re real soldiers and their mounts doing a real job of guarding the Monarch.

Put Arnie back he will fix them,they will keep their hands off of him

I cannot understand why the Army allows this abuse. These are working guards and horses and as such need to be allowed respect. The security aspect is alarming.

Here in the states, we’re not allowed to walk up and start petting military police dogs or civilian police dogs-WHY does the UK allow their military horses to be touched?????

What a magnificent animal that all black horse is! So well trained. Feel sorry for the poor guards who pull this particular duty.

Arnie is my hero.

How calm his the guard and the beautiful horse to have put up with all those hands mauling him

The trouble is that now people dont learn respect at home anymore, bad parenting, people need to good manners and respect, sadly lacking today, I feel so sorry for these wonderful long suffering horses and guards ❤ 😥

This sounds like an old record, but I simply can't bear to watch anymore all those annoying & disrespectful tourists constantly over crowding and touching the Kings Life Guards horses. It's outrageous. I want to scream at them that the Kings Life Guard is not a clown wearing a pretend uniform ... he is a military soldier through & through and is on duty to protect the Kings life - and not there for the unruly and disrespectful tourists entertainment who persistently touch the horses nostrils & mouth and grabbing its' reins. To make matters worse, the tourists are making such a racket by shouting and laughing out loud that could easily unnerve a sensitive horse and spook it. It has happened. I'd like to know exactly what these people find so amusing? They don't know the meaning of the word 'respect'. Kudos to this Guard💂‍♀️ for exercising patience and control 👏 It's high time measures are taken asap to protect the Kings Guards & horses. Perhaps two Police officials could stand on either side of each of the Kings Guard & horse to maintain some sort of orderly fashion (Resources permitting of course!) instead of, with respect, idly standing in a group chatting with each other. Just saying!😊 I do feel better for getting that off my chest!!😉😀

If it was me, I would just want a photo of the Guard and his magnificent horse.

I love the stare the Guard gave the woman who thought she had got away with stroking his boots.!!!

These people need to be told give space to the horse and guard Have these people never seen horses or guards at work before just leave the horse alone 😮😮

The amount of negative energy the guard and horse soke up from all those disrespectful tourists must really take its toll on them. Especially the poor horse being touched by thousands of tourists over the summer months.

I lv Arnie he is just so cool💕fights for his space😁 boggles my mind that people just stand & stare at the guards do they think they’r going to morph or something 🤨

At last - a tourist who asked if he could touch the horse and said thank you to the guard afterwards. I suppose one out of the thousands milling around is a start.

They are taking no notice of the sign if any of the tourists was bitten they would be shouting and screaming why did the horse bite me Then read the notice on the wall

The man in the green jacket was so respectful.

That was lovely Mummy and Son just slowly then this Beautiful Horse Acknowledged Simply Perfect 🐎❤️.

People should respect the soldiers on horse back.

Why do people always laugh when they get yelled at. What they’re doing is so rude. You never touch the horses reins. Unless it’s your horse.

These horses and their companions are highly brave and decorated military whose HIGH RESPONSIBILITY IS TO GUARD THE MONARCH OF GREAT BRITAIN! They do this duty with honor! I (as an American) am embarrassed and ashamed by the rude and ludicrous actions of tourists. These guards should not be subjected to this!

That lovely horse, so gentle when the tiny child stroked his nose, that kiddie will remember that forever, God Bless horse and guard ❤

Esse guarda é tão calmo 👏😍

I can’t believe there are so many disrespectful people out there! I was taught way better. These guards and their horses are working. Do they need to wear signs like working dogs do, asking people not to touch them?

I don't understand why all these people are allowed so close to the Royal Guards and horses.

Non sono mai stata a Londra, ma non avrei mai immaginato quanto stress hanno guardie e cavalli. Io amo in maniera viscerale i cavalli ma queste meravigliose creature sono da ammirare da lontano. Sono dei gioielli e i gioielli non li puoi toccare se non li acquisti.

Gormless doesn’t begin to cover it.

People don’t see with their eyes anymore..They see life thru their phones..

Thank you for your service. Be safe

What’s this guy filming the horses nose. What thehell is he looking at it’s about timethey stopped them touching the horses

There's no way I could be a guard, there would be a few heads on the ground.

Do something to keep the tourist away from the HORSES and guardsman. This is pass crazy!

The way some tourists are all jumpy and scared,you'd swear they were standing next to a fire breathing dragon.

Interesting the guards and these phenomenal strong horses are respecting the fact that their beautifully beings are being touched over and over and people then want to get right up into the face of these magnificent beasts is bad enough - when they grab the reins this is dangerous and arrogant - would they go and grab the lead if a dog walker - can you imagine what would happen….

Public in need of more controlling getting ridiculous at this point before long someone will be seriously hurt.

Jeez, I thought that man was going to put his camera up the horses nostril for a moment. If the horse grabbed the camera I’m not sure that I’d fancy either of them’s chances. 🤬🤬🤬

That is the calmest gourds horse I've ever seen 👍

The lady picks up the toddler to pet the horse a second time😳 right in front of the sign that says "beware horse may bite"

Why do people think that it's ok to trouble these guards and their mounts ? Hey there folks that's half a ton of prime muscle that you are messing around with !! Carry on at your own risk, if the horse doesn't bite or kick you you'll have got off very lightly, please show some respect to these working soldiers, guards and horses !!

You wonder what the horses are thinking

Waaaay to many people around the horses and soldiers. Loud and chaotic people. Damn shouting....

I would like to be a fly on the wall when these Guards are through with their turn on duty to hear what their feelings are regarding those rudy obnoxious, disrespectful people!

People act so stupid! If you’re afraid of the horse Go Away!!!

The problem is that at Horse Guards, there is only the Guards. Tourists need to take their pictures and move away.

they should put more distance between the guards and the crowd. make the public take photos from afar

as a tour guide, the location is if no consequence, I attest to the idiotic disrespectful entitled behavior of visitors.

That Chinese man really annoys me for some reason, and the black man doing finger signs at the horse.😡

I love the horses with white markings on their face and feet

Just need to keep tourists back and out of the whole area. They can take pictures of the guards from afar

I don't understand some people why they want to get too close to the horse...

The guards are not sitting on horseback to havearunning conversation with tourists thete doing a Jo. Guarding

I have never seen so many idiots that just have to tough the horses nose. Drives me nuts

There are more men than women scared of the horse 😅

I notice the guards aren’t marching fast or telling the people make way. Why?

Supposed to be respectful - not a circus. If they were in my house they would be touching everything

Tourists act like they can touch whatever they want. Get a grip people, dont touch. Put a sign up, do not pet or touch! 😮

These guards and horses are on duty. They are not there for tourist postcard photos or their disrespectful amusement.

It must be a pain having to watch constantly if anyone grabbing the reigns being on duty to doing his job...must say he is very good-looking though 😊😊

It's not fair the way some tourists behave with the Horses.

Actually horse control by bridle, people should not touch the bridles.

It would help if the group leaders explained that the guards and horses are not entertaining 😮 but are on official duty😊

you lied about video content AGAIN - you're unsubscribed!!!!!

How close does he need to be to photograph the Poor Horse ?

I must be going blind, I can’t see where any lady is told off never mind a reaction. One thing I don’t understand is how this Trooper gets away with his Albert being on the tilt every time, whoever is doing the inspection must be taking a bung!

Ummm I’m waiting for the lady to be yelled at?

Hate all these crowds, and it will only get worse as summer approaches. They are so noisy too. The guards and horses manage to tolerate it most of the time.

Who wakes up in the morning and says "Let's take our infant-in-arms sightseeing in London" ? What jerks!!

Still day these guards SHOULD NOT be close to the public. Unfair to them. People are idiots.

This is such an idiotic situation. place a barrier to protect these beautiful horses. How is this been allowed for all this time?

Way too many people and way too much noise poor horse and guard trying to keep eye on a ton of stupid tourists is very hard work the guards must be exhausted when the finish their shift.

Most people are stupid they think the guards and horses are there for them

No true horseman would subject his or any other horse to this antiquated abuse. A true horseman would read the clear body language of the hihgly sensitive horses correctly and put a stop to this antiquated decorative fancy dress tradition. Theses horses are trained to suppress stress. But that doesn´t mean they are not suffering from this hell that goes against every aspect of the essence of the nature of a horse. Leave the soldering and ´duties´ to the humans who invented that stuff. For a people that claims to be proud of their love for their horses, this antiquated abuse is hypocrasy at the top level. Exactly like abandonning war horses at the battle field polluted with bombs and landmines, left to fend for them selves after the ´Great War ´, because that was cheaper than bringing them back home.

There needs to be a policeman ( or woman ,before anyone starts to froth) STANDING ON the front were they can see what’s happening to the Guards and Horses AT ALL TIMES. Has it is the prefer 3/4 of them swanning about in the court yard chatting to one another and ONLY come to see what’s going on IF they hear the Guards shout.ITS TOO LATE BY THEN. A police presence out near the horse guards AT ALL TIMES.

This is horrible watching these people.Queuing up to touch a horse.? I hate it when with no regard for horse or guard,they crowd round even when the horse obviously doesn’t want them there, never knowing which way to turn to get away from them.I am surprised it is allowed.Stupid men walking around with their V signs etc,,

Meglepett a vidi ! A gárdista uis nem szólt rá a nőre, úgyhogy a jelzett reakció is elmaradt. 😒

What will it take to put a barrier between these idiotic people and these beautiful horses. It will take a horrific injury to finally get it done. Why are they out there to begin with. Amazing lack of judgement.

The horse did give that man the ‘right’ get lost look the one that works for the guard, but also shouting isn’t helping this are people who think they have the right to behavior like this, maybe because they have a smartphone and probably the phone is much smarter than them 😂😂❤❤❤❤

On the plus side not many jobs let you shout at and embarrass tourists. I bet many a waiter would love it

They allow tourists to do it, because of all the tourists sinking money to the King.

Why do they stick their fingers out is there a meaning for this it looks daft.

I'm going to save the guards any aggravation by NEVER visiting Britain. Rude tourists.

Since so many people have difficulty respecting the Horse Guard(s), maybe an additional sign of KEEP HANDS OF HORSE could take away any reason for grabbing the reins. It is just ridiculous that respect is lacking!! H

Do people realise its not a petting zoo

Maybe we should start with the tourists books....BEFORE they get to the uk, which explains that these soldiers and horses are on duty, not a side show for thir privilege. A sign that asks them NOT to touch the horses may be a start to stopping this daily charade of bad behaviour. Puts me off of ever visiting their country if this is their normal behaviour??. Mind you......we nust still allow the horses to nip and nudge whoever they want and have a nose in someone's back pack, which entertains US 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤

Guards and horses are not their to entertain tourists they're on duty and the guard can't stop the horse from biting ❤

Where’s the police on crowd control

Did anyone else see a ghost peek its head out behind the horse at the entrance?

These titles are clickbait. There was nothing worse than "Dont touch the reins"shout and there was no shocking reaction from a woman.

What a nightmare ..all those daft people.

How much money do the Windsors make from this spectacle?

I don’t like seeing these guards standing alone. Anyone could come behind them

I didn't hear anyone say anything after it happened.

I saw a young man get yelled at but, I didn't see a woman. What part of the video did that happen????
