For those complaining about the life of the horses, the horses and officers are rotated very frequently, 1 hour if I recall correctly. They wget to exercise in Hyde Park and even get beach holidays! Fun facts, all horses are bought in Ireland at abou 3 years old and are extensively trained for this. They are all black, approximately 15 hands tall and have a docile temperament. They are all named with the same first letter by year and this changes every year. Most retire after about 18 years service. In the 1800's officers of the Household Cavalry regiments were required to bring their own horses. My father was Lieutenant Colonel of the Life Guards.
What the fuck do you mean 15 hands tall?
@@OperatorSkilletYou could just ask without the swearing!…….Anyway ‘hands’ is a measurement used for the size of a horse. Look it up.
Rotated... between a stable, a BOX and a portal in the city. That is like i would rotate you between a room full with dogshit and a room full with catshit.
@@OperatorSkilletit’s one of those silly old Imperial units, like feet.
@@OperatorSkillet A hand is roughly equal to four inches, and measured from the withers. If you are unfamiliar with horses and the terms surrounding them, it makes for a very good read! At 15 hands, they are a very average sized horse.

Horse: now that’s the scariest f*cking sh*t I have ever seen in my entire life
lol that’s actually not that far off tbh I’ve worked with horses that have freaked out at their own farts before 😂
But that's not what spooked the horse though, he was already agitated plus horses don't even see colors like we do and they don't care about bikes thanks to their training.
@@shizukagozen777 they see green and blue the best. That was a very bright green. My own horses also freak out from neon colours, even when they're in a field with a cyclist passing.
Yes it was a bit agitated and this just tipped it over. Training or not they are individuals with emotions just like us and their gut instinct is to run for safety. Well handled by guard.
@@astriddevries3008
That's not how it works, the horse would only see an olive color, no neon for him, plus as I already said, the horse was already agitated and it's a trained horse that is desensitized to bikes, cars, etc. Plus the man with the bike seems to be working there because I always see him. If I see him, the horses see him too. There could be many unknown reasons why the horse was spooked and you all point at the man because it's the easiest explanation but I'm pretty sure this is not because of that. Horses spook for literally anything.
@@shizukagozen777 you just explained it yourself. Man works there. Horse knows man is coming and doesnt like neon, the man OR bikes. Hence starts getting nervous and then spooks. Horse see more then 'olive'. There has been research on that. It takes only one negative experience for a horse to respond like that. As the guard handled it well it might go better next time.
Anyway enough speculation on what seems obvious. Enjoy further research into horse behaviour.
The neatest bit of reverse parking I've seen in a long time!
Incredible.
If that was a woman, they’d still be at it
@@Nightstalker321Think again boyo, equestrian is one of the few sports where men and women compete on level terms. And not all women, same for men are bad drivers.
@@colonelkenson8619 oh dear. That went over your head didn’t it. Do me a favour, go make me a sandwich

The power in his voice and the control of that horse are a sight to see. Glad they listened.
He didn’t control that horse, he just made sure not to escalate the horse by remaining calm. A horse cooperates by mutual agreement.
@@gingercake0907a working pair.
And as pair he’s the one that’s scared horse is just transferring energy
@@gingercake0907 he was even spurring the horse. This could have went more south fast.
you clearly dont know much about horses. thats not control thats de-escalation done wrong.
He got that horse back where it should and made it look easier than most people trying to park in a car park.
Hey hey hey. I'll have you know that parking in a car park is harder than it looks. 🙂 lol
Yeah, we don't have a horse to do the work for us! 😄
When a horse is trained to that extent, it is easier than backing in a car
I have never seen tourists listen so well. Usually they act as if there just isn't any room to move back. We'll done to the King's Guard and his horse.
They suddenly remembered that this animal was very powerful, and VERY CLOSE! Although you’re right, we’ve seen far too many people still not realize that!
Well done to the horse?? You said that?😅😅😅
Queen guards please
The kings horse!?!?? English people are slaves to their king how sad...
@@pc-easythe Queen is dead, Long Live the King
Great skill, control and horsemanship from the Guard. Well done.
That back in the box was well done. These Troopers really have excellent trained equine horsemanship. The horse and rider trust is evident. With one hand and on a cobblestone surface surrounded by a crowd.😮
Where did y'all learn to ride horses, K-Mart? That was not great horsemanship, he literally used his spurs and shouted. Then drag the horse by brute force right on back. The horse and ride both were let down by poor training.
The poor horse got frightened by the flashlights
@@Apollostowel ok how would you have done it on a spooked horse cobblestone sidewalk surface around a hundred talking tourist standing around you! Traffic noise? Would you pet his head gently whisper in his ear move back please, using one hand on the rein? The trooper shouted at the crowd not the horse to move. Is this the first time you have seen a Kings Household Guard Calvary trooper on duty at Horse guards Whitehall Road London England?
@@SugarWildflower-si4ox I wouldn’t put a horse in that fucked up situation to begin with, but I could also hop my ass out of the saddle and keeping him paying attention to me, make him move and bend so that he can’t focus on panicking as easily, and I’d mentally berate myself that I set him up to fail.
But it was never about the well being of the horse was it? It’s about pain bits and spurs and bad riders, and “tradition.” 🖕🏻
The guard gives a reassuring pat in the beginning, seems to know this was coming & did just right😊
Most riders can feel a horse's tension prior
to a spook, bolt or refusal.
yeah around the 34 second mark he presses the alert button. he knew it was coming. (that's why his commander came out with another guard)
At the end too.
@@Land967Good pickup. I didn’t know they had an alert system.
Unbelievable display of superlative horsemanship one handed and his sword never left his shoulder. I salute you sir
Every time I see these guards I can't help but think of the history of it all. Just imagine who the people were back in the early 18th century. That you are walking where others walked centuries ago. That horse guard is stationed where another was centuries ago. And, that it had been used as something else even before that. Oh, history is so cool, especially when you can see it, walk past it, and be stationed at it! I know nothing about horses, but he seemed in great control of a scared animal....poor baby.
Remarkable horsemanship... I really don't understand why the visitors are allowed so close. It has to stop.
Wow man, the gentle skill to settle the horse and have it back up into position was pretty damn cool 👏😎
I love horses that either have one white hoof or are “missing a sock” so to speak. That one looks like he’s missing the white markings on his front right hoof, as if he forgot to put on his socks.
They got lost in the wash.
@@mobstercrow7515the wash machine monster strikes again!
He was assembled from spares.
Now that is skill from the guard. Well done sir 👏👏
If you have ever wondered why cavalry were so feared by soldiers then just imagine this horse and rider wanted to do harm, not desperately avoid it. Dont mess with the horseguards. The sword isnt needed.
I always worry that the poor horses could slip and fall, injuring themselves and their riders. Good on the visitors for moving away promptly. It’s nice to see that they actually listened and did as they were told quite quickly. 🙏🏻👍🏻
This ritual is extremely dangerous to the horses, the riders and public. The horses have mental shoes on which is not only hard on their legs but is like being on ice when walking on those stone surfaces. This whole practice needs to end or at least be revised. There are soft shoes they can use but then the loud clopping wouldn't be heard. This is all British pomp and circumstance and nothing more.
@@Gingersnaps-fe2xrinteresting information thank you. Honestly just watching the horse could see he was irritated because he was slipping in the hole he has to stand in. The outer area seemed more stable for him. Yes they should change the shoes for the sake of comfort and ease to the incredible beautiful animal. This is abuse and never a good outcome for the horse, rider and any other people around. 😢
@@Gingersnaps-fe2xrthat makes perfect sense. Totally unnecessary and trying to make an animal act like a person acting like a statue is just stupid.
Uh oh. The woke gen z losers have piped up with an opinion that no one wants or needs. The horses are fine. They’re treated better than you with is probably not hard
@@Nightstalker321 Ok boomer who supports horse abuse. You wouldn't know fine if it ran up your hind end.
I love how help always arrives swiftly any time the guard yells.
Its almost like they are guards, guarding something....odd
Heh - he actually hit a "panic" button on the wall at 0:35
@@mesteme
Their reaction is always so freaking slow... When they hit the button, someone should be there immediately. 😒
Yeah that’s pretty cool. Funny that they probably thought a member of the public was the issue. 😂
Lol when your Midwest dad cares about your overall well-being, but not your emotional well-being, so he yells at you to show he cares 😂
You just made my midwest childhood make sense...
WTH you yabbering about.
@@happymaskedguy1943clearly he's yabbering about something you don't understand, at least that's the impression you're giving me
That also happens outside of the Midwest, just in case you guys haven’t gotten radio yet
lmao!@@chrism9493
The skilled horsemanship of these soldiers is impeccable! He did seem to know the horse was about to spook by the way he was trying to comfort the horse just before. London is such a busy noisy place and these horses do so well dealing with all of that plus the ignorant tourists always touching them.
These horses are trained to deal with this stuff that’s why in some cities you might see horses pulling carriages in places like say New York which could drive any untrained horse insane
"We gotta go back to our post."
"But there was a spider!"
This is a great example of training a horse with trust, not fear. The horse trusted its rider more than it feared whatever had spooked it. Props to the crowd for obeying the guard's command to back off, too.
That's why having barriers is not an option !
True
Well that's one way to get the idiots to give you some room! Excellent control of the horse and crowd!
I do really wish they wouldn't let people get anywhere near the horses. Not for their safety (though that would be protected too) but to keep from upsetting the horses.
Hat's off to the Coldstream Guard! He knew his Horse was becoming anxious, reassured (him/her) and understood what was happening. This is the very reason he's in the right job! Well done, and thank all Men and Woman in our Arms Forces!
I'd be frightened too if I had that many sheep standing around me in a circle staring at me all at once.
Easy for you to say just because you're staring at it from a screen.
lol, was thinking the same.
Im surprised they arent all wearing masks 😂
Absolute professional.
Love the way the horse reverses back 👏🏻
Great horsemanship. ❤
Damn rear parked better than i do in my car.
great job controlling the horse.
Anyone noticed granddad, he knew 👍
And the public didn’t even need to be asked twice, that’s how it should be.
The horse looked very stumbley his legs weren’t in sync looks like he needs a rest.
And I got say that horse “reversing” looked both funny and impressive
Man and beast were very well trained and did well in this situation.
The animal got startled in a way not known from the video.
Horses are gentle and quiet animals, and they had their share of battles, bloodshed and shouts for hundreds of years.
They now just want to chill out a little near palaces. Tourists, respect those two units .
That was very impressive o.o How quickly he was able to crowd control and regain control of the horse. As an equestrian, it can be quite difficult to soothe a horse that quickly with so much stimuli going on.
And all one handed well done
Poor horse.... he/she needs a break.
They switch every 1 hour 30 min or smth dw ❤❤
Amazing control of the situation and the horse.
I love the second time the horse whipped around like you didn’t hear me? lol
Even a horse gets to have a moment when he’s tired and fed up and needs to let loose a bit
Well done trooper you are a credit to your regiment thinking of potential harm first, and horseys got minds of their own if they dont want to be stared at or its uncomforable they complain in the only way horses can. thanks for the vid.
Total mastery, excellent horsemanship.
That poor horse 😢
Very impressive. Good job with the warning. The horse needed the space.
Those tassels on the hat are awesome, really completes the look..
Amazing skill and connection with his horse
He was nervous and it spooked the horse
These horse guards should be done away with. It's hard on the horse to stand perfectly still for hours, and if they act out, they are a danger to the public. This poor horse needs a good 6 months at pasture.
Wow he handled this situation very well!!
They should have moved further back. The guard did an excellent job of getting the horse under control. They should fence off an area for tourists and not allow them near the horses or guards. Very stressful for the horses no matter how well trained they are.
Controlled a horse and a crowd of people. Props brethren 💂♂️
That guard knew exactly what was coming and how to handle it and calm the horse, great job maintaining the saftey of the crowd, gaurds own saftey and the horse, hats off for the reverse parking 🫡
That could have gone horribly wrong. Horses are ridiculous Animals.
Worst part - horse didn't go "Beep Beep Beep" when he backed up! That's a violation!!
Gives an idea of how much presence and power mounted cavalry would have from a foot soldier’s perspective. That’s a strong animal.
That’s scarier than a bunch of the king’s guards trampling through you. A scared horse wouldn’t have the same restraint as those guys
What good is the "oh shit" button if it takes 2 minutes for someone to get out there?
0:51 Roy Hodgson could see what was coming and left with the family.
Oh horses. Who knows what freaked out his tiny little brain. Excellent work by the Guard keeping it all under control.
This isn't a tourist attraction. It's the Kings guard! Keep distance and show some damn respect!
Cyclists Hi-Vis spooked him ? The Guard knew something was up, but I couldn't see anything else.
No, not the cyclist.
When you see bagpipe corps online, the major in front, whether military or not, yells this way. 😅
It's ridiculous that they make these horses stand so long on hard surfaces.
The horses wear shoes that are designed to give them protection from the concrete. Also they have shorter shifts changing every hour.
@@kcm4511come off it dude, none of this is in the horses’ best interest
You're right
@@bestbehaveAnimal Cruelty, let's be honest here... Outdated, cruel and should change.
OMG! 😆 are you serious?😂
Props to the guard for recognizing the danger and ordering the crowd back
What a gorgeous and regal animal
Well done lovely skill of the guard
He did a great job of taking care of his horse and the public. People need to stay back and be respectful!
Trooper did a great job with his mount!
My goodness!! He proved to be quite the horseman!
So the guys with swords, are those just for show/ceremonial purposes? Or are they meant to be used in the event of an actual incident?
No matter how well trained the horse, they are still prey animals. Good on the guardsmen for keeping his cool, keeping the tourists safe and reassuring his horse.
Love it how everyone quickly moved away like a school of fishes
I love how its acting up then just reverse parks like nothing happened
The moment you realize you're missing a sock! 'How irritating', the horse said, 'I shall express my annoyance with a dance'🐎 'Alright, i feel much better now. Back to what we were doing.'🐴💂
Did he press the alarm button at 0:36? If so, it seems a long time until the other soldier showed up.
Man these soldiers can ride!
Horses can do anything, anytime, for any reason
Watching him reverse the horse back like that is kinda mesmerising. How the hell do you learn to reverse a horse without looking back..
The guard is doing exactly what he was trained to do and he handled it very well
Much respect to these guys.
My car was parked at the end of my driveway the other day, I got in it to move it just as two people were riding horses up the street past my driveway. I sat in it and waited until they went by a ways before I started it and the one woman thanked me for waiting. I told her back, no problem, that I didn't want to spook them or anything. I'm not a horse person so kings guard or not, I'm doing what I can to not freak them out
A horse is a horse, of course, of course…🎼
And no one can talk to a horse...
I’m glad the guard handled it so well
Brilliant Horsemanship, fully in control at all times. Well done👏
Glad that older couple with the little kid were paying attention early on and moved out of the way before it got hectic.
Congratulations to the guard for controlling the horse.❤❤Very well done.
Horse doing it's job: keeping people away from the gates. 😅
This horse got upset, because it just realized that it forgot to put on one of its socks that morning.
Good on the rider though. Stayed composed and calmed the horse and by the looks of it gave very firm and understandable commands.
What a professional looks like.
Horse doesn’t like the observers 🤣🤣🤣
I can relate to the horse right now…when you finally start realizing what you are doing with your time and you don’t like it
I don't think you're relating to the horse so much as projecting on it. The implication you give is you do not enjoy your job and neither does the horse. More likely is the horse just got a bit restless or spooked.
He knew his horse 🐴 ❤
Horse got tired of them folks just staring at him all day in this tight semi circle. "Gimme some room"
horse and rider like champions!
Man! Poor horse, are the 10 pounds of bits & spurs really necessary?
No way is that 10 pounds of bit!!! Also, the trooper was very kind when applying the spur. just putting some light pressure on the flank and not digging in. (no marks left). In an ideal situation you'd like to get away without spurs, but in a situation like this where you need to have clear communication to the horse (especially with a bunch of silly tourists standing around) spurs are mandatory.
Do you have any clue how much that animal weighs?
lol at thinking a horse even feels 10 pounds like we do. And nothing wrong with spurs either. If it’s in an experienced rider.
@@alaefarmestatesllc, I'll admit spurs can be useful for quick and concise communication with your horse. But you should be aware that horses have twice as many nerve endings per square cm then we do. So they're twice as sensitive to pain and physical pressure. It's important to bear that in mind when using spurs and bits.
.
Stopped too soon....when you want your shift to end and you chuck a sickie.
Time to replace them with Challenger 3s ;) More seriously, nicely managed.
This poor horse. This is exactly how I feel at Costco.
As my sister used to describe them, really big three-year-olds with bad tempers. The horses, not the guards.
Nah! mor like big dogs who are loyal and will give their all. Bad tempers happen because of bad people. Rarely is a horse born bad.
Well played sir
Amazing how the guard controlled that horse. Nice job, Sir. Well done horsie ❤
