(1 Dec 1998) Natural Sound
A cavalryman escorting Queen Elizabeth II and German President Roman Herzog to Windsor Castle was seriously hurt on Tuesday when he was thrown from his horse.
It was the first day of Herzog's four-day state visit to Britain.
At Windsor Castle, Herzog viewed a giant handmade gilded orb and cross created by British craftsmen for the people of Dresden.
German President Roman Herzog kicked off a four-day state visit at Windsor Castle on Tuesday.
But before he reached the gates of Windsor Castle, a cavalryman escorting the carriages was thrown from his horse when it reared.
The rider, who was wearing a heavy breastplate and armour fell on a sanded road in front of the queen's carriage.
He was taken to a local hospital with shoulder and spine injuries.
Herzog and his wife, Christiane, are the first to be entertained by Queen Elizabeth II at Windsor Castle since fire ripped through it in 1992, destroying some of its historic sections.
The last state visit by a German president was in July 1986 by President Richard von Weizsacker.
The queen last paid a state visit to Germany in 1992.
Herzog viewed a giant handmade gilded orb and cross created by British craftsmen for the people of Dresden as a symbol of friendship and reconciliation over World War II.
The 18-foot (5.5- metre) orb and cross is a replica of the ornament that once graced the skyline of Dresden atop the Baroque Frauenkirche.
The original was destroyed when the church was reduced to rubble in a two-day Anglo-American bomb raid on the city during World War II.
The 1.5 ton copper and stainless steel creation was made by hand.
It was commissioned by the Dresden Trust, a group of people in Britain who raised around 300-thousand pounds (495-thousand U-S dollar) from individuals, charities and companies across the country.

As a remember from the news bulletins, the rider was discharged from hospital a few days later with soft tissue injuries to his back and a fractured collar bone. The horse was spooked by a camera flash from the crowd. The flash temporarily blinded the horse and it panicked. Horses are flight animals, and will try to run if frightened. All credit to the mounted police officers who caught the animal before anyone else got hurt

No, so the horse won’t get hit by the car....that kind of car hit by a horse can be mended, but an out of control horse and rider who hit a car could be killed. The rider had serious shoulder and spine injuries from hitting the sand with a horse on top of him, but if they’d come down on the moving car, the injuries would very likely be much worse.
@sync7639
@sync7639 3 жыл бұрын
@@voraciousreader3341 I agree, but in this situation where everything happens in seconds, the driver would've thought to speed up so that the horse wouldn't fall back to the car. Also, horses easily weigh about 900-2000 pounds, so if the horse would've fallen back to the car, there would have been some glass cracks of some sort(if the glass wasn't bulletproof, then it would most certainly break and possibly injure the VIPs in the car). It'd be still bad for both parties if the horse actually fell back on the car so kudos to the driver.

@@G1NZOU Yes! There is a reason why I basically check every phone and camera to not have their flashes on when I take people with me to the stables. My mother has a very bad habit of leaving hers on, so now I only allow her to take her phone and constantly keep an eye for a slipping flash! I don't have a pal to film me during my lessons or to take pictures, so usually my parents (who come with me either way so it just makes sense to use them) are left for the job. Luckily my father never uses his flashlight anyway, nevertheless the flash so everything is safe. A bonus of dragging them along is that I have two trained medical professionals with us if we need to respond to an emergency. (Has already happened)

I find it curious, if not also telling, that although the horses were all in Groups, this one wasn’t with other horses but off to the side being HELD BY two officers on both side of the fence Before the car went by! There was no camera flash. Three people were pulled away when the horse pulled his neck up before his feet moved. I conclude that the horse was taken out of line for some reason BEFORE anything “happened”

It is his duty to ensure the safety of the people and the injured man. He looks to be leaving his post but it was a emergency so no trouble for him. The other guardsman who is sergeant - major according to his red salsh went over to talk to the guardsman and he sorted everything out. The car behind was the Queen's car but it was empty so no delay there, the car was there in case something wrong with her carraige.

The guards' horses are amazingly tolerant, but every now and then a flash from a camera sends them off. It must have been very close to his face. On a grey day, photographing a black horse, the flashes go off continuously. There are also an amazing number of idiots who think that it is OK to grab the horse by either the side of its bridle or by one of the reins. If the person here who appeared to be holding on when the horse reared, had pulled the bit into the horses mouth, then the horse is likely to react as it did.
