The white horse at the beginning - "I don't like these sunglasses - they don't suit me" 😂😂🤣🤣🤣 Can they actually see through those visors - the plastic is curved!
Yes they can see! Horses also use flymask, essentially a head covering made from mesh to keep the eyes and ears free of large bugs and they can see through those aswell.
Awesome. I've always hated the noise and disorderliness at Notting Hill Carnival but went along with my mother for a chance to glimpse a mounted police officer. I even visited Imber Court training centre with my stables and briefly considered becoming a mounted officer as a career path, but I simple smoke too much weed for that; even at the 420 demonstrations in Hyde Park, I cannot help approaching officers for a chance to say hello or thank them for monitoring the event, keeping it peaceful,. That and keeping working horses in London, as they are long part of its history and a great reassurance to the public.
Really excellent close up video footage of the Metropolitan Police Mounted Branch. Are there scheduled times of the day where one can witness the mounted patrol? Thank you for your help. I appreciate it. Cheers
As it happens, I have a hobby in which I try to see as many police horses as possible. Patrol times are regularly changed (so that criminals can't accurately predict where they won't be at any one time) so finding them is a game of chance & observance. As for crowd control duty, you can generally see them if you go anywhere that traffic news advises you to avoid due to a football match.
Those horses must know what's to come as they get tacked up like that.....yet they are so calm. What wonderful training.

The Brown horse is clamping it's feet to say HURRY UP
Did anyone else notice the brown horse kicking when the officer was putting on the viser
Flies
These mounts are pretty laidback, HC mounts are skittish. Time to put those Raybans on, riot gears on ok human time for work.
Why do the horses wear Protective "Vests" along both sides of their Neck?
caran andrews What are you talking about ?
What part of the gear do you mean? Is it attached to the bridle or saddle? Cause these ones aren't wearing their full riot gear.
To stop them getting stabbed
Look like they are getting ready for trouble / riot ?
A football match, so pretty much the same thing! 😆
Excellent work done by the mounted police .... well done all
Bandits in uniform. I wonder who is the animal here? It is barbaric to use horses against humans. Psychopaths.
