Colonel, I'm an old American cavalry trooper. Please allow me to speak for your troopers and say THANK YOU for keeping your priorities straight. Soldiers first, always. As we both know, there is a type of officer who would worry about this accident's effect on their career first or worry about the equipment first or the public perception first. It appears that your command does not tolerate such behavior from leadership and I think every soldier can appreciate that. This is a professional and clear briefing for the public... the language is simple, the talking points are clear, filled with facts, and the key point is repeated twice: this is the number of soldiers injured, they are receiving professional care, all the mounts have been recovered and are likewise receiving care. EXCELLENT work, sir. A sincere and respectful tip of the Stetson from a distant cousin from across the pond.

I agree. That poor white horse with the injured chest is probably going to not like being groomed there for a long time. How upsetting for everyone. And to see the horses careening off like that not knowing what would happen to them, it must have been awful for everyone.

Thank you so much for this update I have been so worried about the troopers and the horses, watching them as often as I do at Horse Guards I have grown very fond of many of the horses and guards. I even know some of the horses by name, so as you can imagine I am hoping and praying that non of them have serious life threatening injuries and of course the same goes for the injured troopers. Having worked with horses myself I know how you grow to love them and I know your horses are treated extremely well and I am sure loved as well. Praying and sending love to all concerned💖
Accidents happen, this is the first I've heard of, glad that the soldiers and horses are all OK. Keep up the good work you do with the horses. Britain wouldn't be the same without you guys on active duty and ceremonial duty. Horse and man/ woman working as one.
I am glad that all are safe and receiving the required treatment. Best wishes in particular to the injured service personnel as this shows some of the dangers of the job they do every day.
Thank you for your update. I’m wishing well to all that were injured and I know that your horses will get the best vet care to help them towards a speedy recovery.
Our Armed Services do a fantastic Job daily...wishing the Soldiers and Horses a speedy recovery. And please when around horses be careful not to suddenly frighten them with loud noises.
Also the incessant, various flags waving, tour guides lack of control + required respect, and loud excitable silly, high pitched noisey nonsense!! PLUS the usual repetitive "STRANGE GAWPING & MOCKING" done by those Hasidic Jewish Men with their curls and beards etc They most definitely need stricter Police controlling.
One has to hope the dropping of construction materials was not a deliberate act. Being a rider and driver of horses I am aware that some people deliberately try to frighten horses because they think it's funny. A ridiculous, and incredibly dangerous mind-set, for rider and horse, but sadly it's all too common. Note I am not suggesting that this is the case here - we shall no doubt never know - but I sincerely hope it wasn't.
This was a health and safety issue!! Construction workers should be trained in health and safety but clearly this hasn't happened in this situation. Concrete falling from height! It's enough that injuries have been incurred from just the noise of it but what if said concrete had actually landed on top them? 😮 A public inquiry is needed as to how this happened and the Army plus anyone else affected by the incident should be suing the construction company 💯💯
Sorry for the unfortunate occurance and the injuries that resulted. Hope everyone fully recovers. Thanks for the update. It was upsetting to see the horses so panicked and hurt. Thanks again for the update on everyone. Alabama, USA
Professional delivery addressing the situation that transpired, well done and best wishes for full and speedy recovery off the injured personnel and horses…..
That's so awful for everyone involved. Thank God no lives were lost. Thank you, Sir for the update. Prayers for a speedy recovery for the soldiers & horses.

Very sorry to hear of the injuries to both horses and riders . Good to hear all are well taken care of . Much love and many gentle hugs from BC Canada .
That myst have been almost like a bomb going off- stuff dropped from a great height into a skip or whatever- Horses in panic just don't ''think'' they are deaf too all rein aids, and the voice, too. Hope all horses and riders make a good recovery.

The Horse Guards have been in London since 1750. They regularly exercise 150 horses daily and things like this are a rarity. London without the Horses, The Trooping of the Colours and the horse guards outside Royal Households would be deeply missed. This was a clear and direct update of an accident. It was very well delivered. I hope no one uses this as a reason to remove our much loved horses from the public.
@@PapaBurgandy111 😂 very amusing PapaBurgandy111 but I did mean their welfare, especially as one of the horses was shown injured and bleeding in the footage released today.

Something wrong with builders who would drop rubble from a height right next to horses. I hope they (the horses) are ok, especially the white one, he had a bad cut somewhere. Glad the riders are ok too.
appreciating the update. i hope the riders and horses are all recovering. as a horse rider and owner myself i can relate to this. i have been in a similar situation myself. no one could fail to be frightened by consturiotn material dropped from a height let alone a horse.
This is a shock simply since for 60 years I cannot remember this happening like this before. It shows that noise pollution can have terrible effects on us all. Wishing a speedy recovery to Horses, the Men and anyone else injured. God Save the King.
Thank You for the update! My family have a soft heart for horses, they are just like our children, waiting for our word, that it will be alright, We pray for the horses and the people who look after them!
A few horses get spooked and run around in London for a bit and every newspaper and influencer is saying its dramatic and horrific 🙄 And the army have to come out with a statement for everyone concerned wtf 😮 Near to where i live the national park of Dartmoor lost many animals to careless drivers last year. Below is the numbers and personally this is horrific because nobody is talking about it or doing anything significant to stop this from happening. 161 animals had been hit by traffic last year, of which 126 died. Of these 27 ponies were killed and 11 survived. While 84 sheep were killed and 20 survived and 15 cows were killed and four survived. These figures happen almost every year so we loose hundreds of animals in 5 years alone to stupid people driving to fast and without care. Four horses running around London gets national coverage while hundreds of animals get killed every year and nothing gets said. And if you think that blood on that horse was bad you should see the state the carcasses are left in while the foals and young of the animals that are hit watch thier mothers die Infront of them. That is a disgrace and disgusting.
I guess it gathered so much attention because these are the king's horses part of the military (which is why they are the ones to come up with a statement) highly trained and used to cities so it's unusual that they would be this scared and uncontrolable. It happened in London too where there are a lot of people who witnessed it and shot footage. It must have been very spectacular though not in a good way. But the numbers you are citing are very sad indeed and i very much agree this problem deserves way more attention.

Very best wishes for all to recover soon.
Thank you for the update. And a speedy recovery to the soldiers and horses xxx ❤
I am glad that all are safe and receiving the required treatment. Best wishes in particular to the injured service personnel as this shows some of the dangers of the job they do every day.
Thank you for your update. I’m wishing well to all that were injured and I know that your horses will get the best vet care to help them towards a speedy recovery.
Our Armed Services do a fantastic Job daily...wishing the Soldiers and Horses a speedy recovery. And please when around horses be careful not to suddenly frighten them with loud noises.
Also the incessant, various flags waving, tour guides lack of control + required respect, and loud excitable silly, high pitched noisey nonsense!!
PLUS the usual repetitive "STRANGE GAWPING & MOCKING" done by those Hasidic Jewish Men with their curls and beards etc
They most definitely need stricter Police controlling.
Thank you for the update. Hopefully everyone, soldiers and horses recover quickly and soundly 🇨🇦
One has to hope the dropping of construction materials was not a deliberate act. Being a rider and driver of horses I am aware that some people deliberately try to frighten horses because they think it's funny. A ridiculous, and incredibly dangerous mind-set, for rider and horse, but sadly it's all too common. Note I am not suggesting that this is the case here - we shall no doubt never know - but I sincerely hope it wasn't.
My thoughts too.
Seems it was concrete that fell off an elevator/lift, so thankfully, really unlikely to be deliberate. Just a horrible accident.
Yes sadly that's what I've found too.
This was a health and safety issue!! Construction workers should be trained in health and safety but clearly this hasn't happened in this situation. Concrete falling from height! It's enough that injuries have been incurred from just the noise of it but what if said concrete had actually landed on top them?
😮 A public inquiry is needed as to how this happened and the Army plus anyone else affected by the incident should be suing the construction company 💯💯
Most likely they weren’t aware of the horses, I think🙂
Our thoughts will be with your soldiers and horses as they recover from this difficult time. Regards.
The images of the bloody horses running down the street is horrifying.
Important to remember a horse carries 50 odd litres of blood on average, even a superficial injury can look a lot to our eyes.
@@samjl4 Exactly. Just ah half a cup water can make a large patch.
Do you often get horrified so easily?
Life's a little rougher than that!
if Tarantino directed Lloyd's TSB ad's 🤐
@@Capitalisst Some people are "easily" (judgment, yah) horrified than others. Best not to shame them for it.
Sorry for the unfortunate occurance and the injuries that resulted. Hope everyone fully recovers. Thanks for the update. It was upsetting to see the horses so panicked and hurt. Thanks again for the update on everyone. Alabama, USA
Professional delivery addressing the situation that transpired, well done and best wishes for full and speedy recovery off the injured personnel and horses…..
So long as the soldiers and horses plus everyone else is OK and safe that's the important part
Great information and thank you for updating us. I'm so glad all involved are recovering.
So glad all appears well! Hope the white horse is OK considering that was the main horse going around the internet - he looked pretty badly injured!
I believe Vida is back at Hyde Park
Grey horse. No such thing as a White horse FYI.
That's so awful for everyone involved. Thank God no lives were lost. Thank you, Sir for the update. Prayers for a speedy recovery for the soldiers & horses.
Thank you for the update and letting us know that the soldiers and horses are all receiving medical care by hospital staff and vets wishing them all a speedy recovery.🙏🙏🐎🐎👍👍
… And that all received the vax like you surely, buying whatever the establishment and royaulty tell you ,ever docile lambs . poor souls …no hope,. Let’s just hope that the poor horses are fine, because according to some people on videos chats, they re not quite treated properly by the army,,?!
Very sorry to hear of the injuries to both horses and riders . Good to hear all are well taken care of . Much love and many gentle hugs from BC Canada .
Thank goodness everyone is being cared for, praying that there are no long term consequences for anybody- human or horse❤🙏
Bless you all and especially those beautiful horses! Please do give an update on their recovery! ❤
I am glad the horses and your soldiers are doing well ❤🩵❤ Thank you for your service 🙏
That myst have been almost like a bomb going off- stuff dropped from a great height into a skip or whatever-
Horses in panic just don't ''think'' they are deaf too all rein aids, and the voice, too.
Hope all horses and riders make a good recovery.
So relieved to hear all are doing well. Thank you for the update.
Thank you for your update
💯🇬🇧🌟🌟🌟🌟👏👏👏
Thank you for the update. I was very concerned for both horses and riders. Your report was sufficiently comprehensive with clarity to put us all at ease. May your beautiful horses and riders continue to recover and stay safe.
Funny how guys like him are typically just really sound and level, their generally the best of their class, interestingly so where a lot of upper classes are scoundrels, bet he's a very ernest good fella, very genuine, very respectful, very well molded.
Very true, my dad’s a scoundrel and he wasn’t in the army. Lazy git.
Praying for all involved
I don't think they were "rampaging" they were running scared. Rampaging means intentionally causing damage. Wrong word.
Thank you for keeping us informed. I wish you all well.
Those builders/construction workers need a serious talking to.
The Horse Guards have been in London since 1750. They regularly exercise 150 horses daily and things like this are a rarity. London without the Horses, The Trooping of the Colours and the horse guards outside Royal Households would be deeply missed. This was a clear and direct update of an accident. It was very well delivered. I hope no one uses this as a reason to remove our much loved horses from the public.
Not quite enough of an update on the outlook for the horses, I hope they release that information soon.
They're all going to be court-martialled for insubordination.
@@PapaBurgandy111 😂 very amusing PapaBurgandy111 but I did mean their welfare, especially as one of the horses was shown injured and bleeding in the footage released today.
Why do you believe you need to be informed of every detail.
Take a seat.
I have been patiently wating to hear or read an update regarding the injured soldiers and horses.Thank you for this concise, factual update.Wishing a speedy recovery to all who were injured. 🇨🇦
Something wrong with builders who would drop rubble from a height right next to horses. I hope they (the horses) are ok, especially the white one, he had a bad cut somewhere. Glad the riders are ok too.
What are you babbling
so glad to hear all involved are healing. thank you.
I heard some horses were caputured at The Highway whichis to the east of Tower Bridge. That's a long way from Belgravia where it apparently started.
And?
@@eileenmcdonald1599 And what?
appreciating the update. i hope the riders and horses are all recovering. as a horse rider and owner myself i can relate to this. i have been in a similar situation myself. no one could fail to be frightened by consturiotn material dropped from a height let alone a horse.
This is a shock simply since for 60 years I cannot remember this happening like this before. It shows that noise pollution can have terrible effects on us all. Wishing a speedy recovery to Horses, the Men and anyone else injured. God Save the King.
Thank you for your update.
this just shows how construction works and loud noises are debilitating to our senses and well being
Thank You for the update! My family have a soft heart for horses, they are just like our children, waiting for
our word, that it will be alright, We pray for the horses and the people who look after them!
A few horses get spooked and run around in London for a bit and every newspaper and influencer is saying its dramatic and horrific 🙄
And the army have to come out with a statement for everyone concerned wtf 😮
Near to where i live the national park of Dartmoor lost many animals to careless drivers last year.
Below is the numbers and personally this is horrific because nobody is talking about it or doing anything significant to stop this from happening.
161 animals had been hit by traffic last year, of which 126 died.
Of these 27 ponies were killed and 11 survived. While 84 sheep were killed and 20 survived and 15 cows were killed and four survived.
These figures happen almost every year so we loose hundreds of animals in 5 years alone to stupid people driving to fast and without care.
Four horses running around London gets national coverage while hundreds of animals get killed every year and nothing gets said.
And if you think that blood on that horse was bad you should see the state the carcasses are left in while the foals and young of the animals that are hit watch thier mothers die Infront of them.
That is a disgrace and disgusting.
I guess it gathered so much attention because these are the king's horses part of the military (which is why they are the ones to come up with a statement) highly trained and used to cities so it's unusual that they would be this scared and uncontrolable. It happened in London too where there are a lot of people who witnessed it and shot footage. It must have been very spectacular though not in a good way.
But the numbers you are citing are very sad indeed and i very much agree this problem deserves way more attention.
