@Paula P, this is one of the newer females of the troop. She is still learning her horsemanship. The Warrant Officer looking at both of them has years of experience and will take his time to encourage the horse to relax as he gets patted. The noise from the tourists is lower. The rider is sitting well in the saddle to encourage the horse to quieter down. Having said that, I am not so sure I would like being in a sentry box that small. I really agree with loving pats, small treats and more loving pats of reassurance. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🐎🐎🐎🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🐎🐎🐎🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you so much for your interesting information. I so admire the Royal horse guards and their Beautiful Horses. It must take many hours of patience and loving care to train the horse's to such obedience and high standard. Thank you Genni stay safe RIP Queen Elizabeth Ii God Bless the King 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
love how gentle they are calming the horse and how the horse turned to check his rider was still there as the other walked off ❤ horses have big beautiful souls ❤
So hard to ride this panicked horse with a sword in one hand. Well done. And well done that the other soldier came to comfort the horse & stayed until it calmed down thoroughly.
He wasn’t panicked. It was classic anxiety behaviour as soon as he got near the sentry box. Didn’t want to go in and who could blame him. You can see the same behaviour at any race track or horse show when many horses refuse or become difficult to load into a horse box or trailer. Also when asked to enter the starting barriers at races.
Horse isn’t panicked. Horses are extremely observant and in-tune with their surroundings, though. They have to be. “Horses can smell fear,” or “If you act nervous, he’ll get scared, too.” But, horses are not telepathic. They are, however, very observant.
@@truthreallyupsetsmostpeopl759 Horse is not afraid. Neither is rider. He is showing classic signs of anxiety on approaching the sentry box. Probably due to some previous bad experience maybe during initial training.
What do you mean difficult to ride with one hand? Soldiers went into the thick of battle for thousands of years and had to control their horses with one hand due to having their weapons in the right hand. Cowboys likewise when roping cattle. Horsemanship in the past didn’t just involve cantering slowly around a sand arena holding the reins in two hands.
@@joanthewad7510 Have you owned horses? Well my mom and I owed horses and the only time they got scared was from either lightning and thunder or vehicles honking their horns they get spooked and my mom was scared of her barrel racing quarter horse she was taller than my pinto, mom tried to get on her quarter horse and the horse sensed my moms fear my mom never got on her. Horse reacted. So I got on her horse she was a lot bigger and taller than my horse my pinto was more for a kids horse. My mom fear was "Princess" was too fast for my mom she couldn't handle her own horse. I got on my moms horse and she reared up with me on her trying to get me off of her but I stayed on her she thought I was going to be like my mom scared. She was ready to go. My mom and I switched horses. They were both females and always stayed together. They couldn't even stay apart. But that guards horse isn’t afraid it just saw people that was afraid and horse reacted. Horse was fine on one side never reacted but it entered the other side and horse saw someone’s fear it shook its head and reacted. If you never owed a horse now you know. Horse can sense fear like with my moms fear.
I grew up around horses and they can have bad days too. Sometimes they just don’t want to put up with people and all the surrounding noise. This looks to be quite a young horse too.
@@biddiemutter3481 I don’t care how experienced a rider someone is horses can always be unpredictable. Experienced riders can still end up getting thrown off.
So stressful to these horses when seeing so many people and the noisey street! I would be spooked by that too!! Poor baby! Good to see guard calming him down with gentle petting.awww❤️❤️❤️
These horses are usually used to people and noisy streets. They’re trained that way. However, they’re still animals and anything can spook them despite being well trained
This horse is NOT spooked. It is having some trouble with the bit in its mouth. Very clear from the start of the video and anyone who knows anything can see the difficulty in the horse’s mouth with him pulling his head and position of his tongue.
@@sannya6390one horse just came out of that cubby hole & took off walking left on that pavement until a guard ran & caught up with him to bring him back
How ever did we manage all those years ago,visiting these places on school trips without mobiles, if anything is worth remembering it will stay in our memories if not it wasn’t important enough for us. I actually pride myself on the fact I don’t need to prove the fact I’ve been to London and saw a Queens guard etc, I think I am a minority though
There are literally barriers. If they didn't want people standing that close, they would put the barriers further back. They're fine. They're all trained for this.
Great horsemanship handling this horse ! People if you see something as big as a horse coming close to you move if you see a horse shaking his head jumping up and down and still need the police to tell you move back please get a brain

As an American. I can really appreciate the culture and heritage of English. How exhausting it must be for all to endure such strength and devotion for the queen. Even the horses must be tired. What a much warranted but exhausting process.
Too many people think that they are at Disneyland. Perhaps people should learn how to focus their phone cameras so they don’t have to stand so close 🤗. Just saying
Not as tiring as the poor Landau horses in my home town, Blackpool Lancashire who spend all day either standing waiting for customers or dragging the carriage full of holidaymakers up and down the seaside promenade. I know horses and donkeys are used all over the place in tourist spots like this.
I liked how the officer soothed the horse, and as he left, he gave the horse even secretly a kiss on the nostrils, see at 3:45... How sweet! 💕 (edit: it's 3:54)
I had four horses at one time. I would point to my lips and each one gave me a horse kiss. What a wonderful feeling! I miss them especially my American Saddlebred.
This horse is NOT spooked. It is having some trouble with the bit in its mouth.

The rider does NOT understand his horse.
so nice for the standing guard to pet the horse to distract/calm it; when a horse butts his head on you, that means he wants a scratch under the bridle straps, usually up under the side poll top region; i did this for my horse and he SOOOO appreciated it, and let me know WHEN he wanted it by giving me a gentle head butt....thats what theyre telling you.
Per nulla facile controllare e riportare alla calma quando sei così bardato come il cavaliere. Ottimo cavallo, bravo il cavaliere a restare calmo, ottimo il superiore a confortare il cavallo. Tutte le cose giuste, fatte nel modo giusto. Soldati, ma uomini di cavalli.
the love that iv witnessed and calm approach is truly wonderful.this horse was calmed down with dignity.people should not get too close the horse obviously did not like it,
Well done to the rider and fellow beside him to calm him. A well broke horse can be unpredictable at times, but it just shows how some people are stupid, still standing there and not moving, taking pictures while the horse is uptight about something smh

All the nodding was a bit of Dominance Behaviour, which was funny. Because he was afraid he decided to make himself seem a bit tougher. They also do that when they're irritated. Poor lad. I'm sure he got used to that type of situation as time went on. They generally get desensitised and relax more, particularly as they get older.
This is not as uncommon as some would think. New horses often act like that on their first guard...and the entire Horseguards ceremony has become so packed with people there should be limitations. Even more police there now, it's time to limit the tourist population, it is too dangerous for the guard and their horses.
Look I saw 👀 lot of videos in around two weeks all the horses 🐎 have the same problems. What you want tell me now all that horses 🐎 are new and is the first parade. Keep playing your own trumpet 🎺, say something else sound you know less than nothing, you opening your mouth and shooting BS, you can go there as guard in that way the tourists run 🏃♂️ 🏃♂️ 🏃♂️ away just when they feel the smell of the BS you shooting.

This is also a reason they have the corporal of horse there as well (the guy with the sergeant stripes is the corporal of horse).

Respect the horse. Keep distance! Some tourists gets too close to them and even try to touch them(just for a photo). Do not touch or get too near the horse. Respect the horse's personal space.
I said it was a possible omen on any view of this horse. But he is mouthing his bit ,maybe he has a mouth issue and the bit was hurting him. Regardless, that Calvary Guardsman showed exelent horsemanship skills with his handling of his mount.
Maybe balance in far as horsemanship. But you call that” hang in there” and grit your teeth and don’t say the bad words that are popping into head while you calm your horse. BREATH ! Fortunately he had good ground support. Anyone who rides has been there.
I saw this report on another You Tube channel. Apparently, the horse’s bit had become misplaced and was causing him a great deal of discomfort hence why the horse was so agitated.
Yep that vid showed the bit was under the horses tongue causes excruciating pain for the horse hence why the horses tongue was hanging out of its mouth the rider and everyone around should of fixed the issue before the horse even came out 😭😭
Not the same horse but I noted that with this horse the bit also seems to be a problem. Maybe the Royal guard can look into the bits they use. We love these horses - they're the other "children" of the Royal Family. 💖💐
@@Karen-ig6bp You’re right. Looks like the same problem. Poor horse. They’re such magnificent animals. One hates to see them so uncomfortable. Maybe there is something amiss with the bits that are used. And why wouldn’t the rider bring the horse back in and fix it so that the horse isn’t uncomfortable? I realize they have to stand watch for a certain amount of time but it seems unnecessarily cruel to submit the horse to that level of discomfort for any length of time.
@@cak8132 I've grown up with horses and played polo for a very long time. The slightest tinge of my horse being uncomfortable I would get off and inspect. This is extremely heart breaking to say the least. 😔 Maybe we should pact and teach them what to look out for...🤔
Well handled. For you people who don’t ride Thoroughbreds or TB crosses, these are athletic, intelligent, and aggressive MILITARY horses in the Horse Guard. A bitless bridle would not have controlled that horse in this situation. The bridle and bit are correctly adjusted and the horse was attempting to run through the bit which would have put him in the middle of that ignorant bunch of people. The horse guard is CAVALRY. They learn Classical Dressage which is a MARTIAL ART. What is appropriate for your backyard pleasure horse is NOT APPROPRIATE for a war horse. That cavalier is carrying an unsheathed sword for a reason. It isn’t just a warning.
The ignorance comes from dumb humans that have to subjugate animals for no reason. No good reason to have horses in central London performing tricks to satisfy clowns and oppressors
@@stoufer2000 What don’t you understand about the word GUARD? Horses are excellent for crowd control because the guard can see a long way from the back of a horse and the horse can move people without direct contact. That is the best way to move a crowd without doing damage. That sword is there for the the aggressive terrorist types and is a very lethal and selective weapon. The guards do practice using it. This is not for show. You show your ignorance by your statement.
@@LovinLnCottage oh there you go.. and I thought it was the all the police with the semi automatic weapons standing everywhere that were guarding the rulers. Turns out it's these medieval cosplay guys.. what are the armed police there for then?
I saw the longest haired British policeman I've ever seen in this video. Don't they have regulation hair cuts anymore? what a shambles, 'come as you please', discipline and dress code don't matter .
This horse is NOT spooked. It is having some trouble with the bit in its mouth. Very clear from the start of the video and anyone who knows anything can see the difficulty in the horse’s mouth with him pulling his head and position of his tongue.
It looks like the horse isn't spooking, but is tensing up against the curb. The way he continually opens his mouth and shakes his head. It's unusual for a rider to just use the curb reins like this rider has done. You would use the snaffle reins and the curb reins are just backup...
@Stephanie Pearcy, their life is good. Handled in the morning when they are taken out of their stalls, checked over, feed breakfast then taken to first hour of duty. They stay in their sentry box for the one hour. Then taken off duty. Again, the horses are checked to make sure they are OK. Excuse the pun, there is a whole army Cavalry around to tend to their needs. 🐎🐎🐎
It's as if the horse knows it's job, and wasn't happy that the public was so close to its guard station. So it did what it had to do to make them step back... 😆
Horse was not spooked or 'gone crazy' as in the other headliner - the bit was beneath her tongue, causing a painful condition -the horse controlled herself, trying to 'tell' her rider of the situation, her tongue obviously throlling about - head shaking - in pain - yet she didn't buck the rider off - no one noticed this - luckily, they finally allowed her to retreat to the stables and get the bit in the right place.
I’ve rode my horse all over. Sheriffs posse arena, riding downtown on the sidewalk, trail rides, barrel racing, going to fast food restaurant thru the drive thru with a friend. Some horses are lazy and don’t wanna do nothing but stand still.
The horse didn't have the bit under his tongue. He was just spooked. Horses will often lick their lips and play with the bit when adjusting to a new circumstance. It is a sign that they are thinking about what is happening, coming to terms with it and calming down, as this horse did shortly after licking its lips.
This horse is NOT spooked. It is having some trouble with the bit in its mouth. Very clear from the start of the video and anyone who knows anything can see the difficulty in the horse’s mouth with him pulling his head and position of his tongue. This horse was NOT spooked.
She got her bit underneath her tongue, so was in excruciating pain. I read on another video thread that she has a tendency to sometimes be quite chirpy (mares do have a tendency to be this way). Her behaviour had nothing to do with the crowd (although it's wise NOT to crowd a horse of any breed).

See the horse flashed his tale at 0:04 - A sure sign that he's not too happy.
The horse has had its tongue over the bit.
Check that bit! Loved the sneaky kiss 💋
I saw this report on another You Tube channel. Apparently, the horse’s bit had become misplaced and was causing him a great deal of discomfort hence why the horse was so agitated.
Yep that vid showed the bit was under the horses tongue causes excruciating pain for the horse hence why the horses tongue was hanging out of its mouth the rider and everyone around should of fixed the issue before the horse even came out 😭😭
Not the same horse but I noted that with this horse the bit also seems to be a problem. Maybe the Royal guard can look into the bits they use. We love these horses - they're the other "children" of the Royal Family. 💖💐
@@Karen-ig6bp You’re right. Looks like the same problem. Poor horse. They’re such magnificent animals. One hates to see them so uncomfortable. Maybe there is something amiss with the bits that are used. And why wouldn’t the rider bring the horse back in and fix it so that the horse isn’t uncomfortable? I realize they have to stand watch for a certain amount of time but it seems unnecessarily cruel to submit the horse to that level of discomfort for any length of time.
Good to see that he is calm down. They too are emotional they can sense that the Queen is no morr
@@cak8132 I've grown up with horses and played polo for a very long time. The slightest tinge of my horse being uncomfortable I would get off and inspect. This is extremely heart breaking to say the least. 😔 Maybe we should pact and teach them what to look out for...🤔
at 16secs...that police man saw everything coming ! nice job ;)
They (the horse) can't be perfect everyday! Beautiful animals!
He's really good with the horse. People really need to respect other's space
1:17 zdravím všetkých Slovákov 🇸🇰 ❤️
Well Done and one handed brilliant 😘🇬🇧
Well handled. For you people who don’t ride Thoroughbreds or TB crosses, these are athletic, intelligent, and aggressive MILITARY horses in the Horse Guard. A bitless bridle would not have controlled that horse in this situation. The bridle and bit are correctly adjusted and the horse was attempting to run through the bit which would have put him in the middle of that ignorant bunch of people. The horse guard is CAVALRY. They learn Classical Dressage which is a MARTIAL ART. What is appropriate for your backyard pleasure horse is NOT APPROPRIATE for a war horse. That cavalier is carrying an unsheathed sword for a reason. It isn’t just a warning.
The ignorance comes from dumb humans that have to subjugate animals for no reason. No good reason to have horses in central London performing tricks to satisfy clowns and oppressors
@@stoufer2000 What don’t you understand about the word GUARD? Horses are excellent for crowd control because the guard can see a long way from the back of a horse and the horse can move people without direct contact. That is the best way to move a crowd without doing damage. That sword is there for the the aggressive terrorist types and is a very lethal and selective weapon. The guards do practice using it. This is not for show. You show your ignorance by your statement.
@@LovinLnCottage oh there you go.. and I thought it was the all the police with the semi automatic weapons standing everywhere that were guarding the rulers. Turns out it's these medieval cosplay guys.. what are the armed police there for then?
@@stoufer2000 a sabre or sword IS a lethal weapon.
@@parkerbrown-nesbit1747 we should have a duel to prove the point. I'll take the semi automatic rifle..
I saw the longest haired British policeman I've ever seen in this video. Don't they have regulation hair cuts anymore? what a shambles, 'come as you please', discipline and dress code don't matter .
it's not as stringent as you may think. Hair must be neat and tidy above collar length and secured above the collar if long.
Great respect to the soldier there, for his composure and quiet control of the horse when it was unsettled. 💂🐴🐎👏
This horse is NOT spooked. It is having some trouble with the bit in its mouth. Very clear from the start of the video and anyone who knows anything can see the difficulty in the horse’s mouth with him pulling his head and position of his tongue.
At a guess I would say the horse was spooked by the high visibility jackets worn by the police 😉
The bit was placed wrong so the horse was trying to say she was in pain.
Animals are so very smart, perhaps this lovely horse knew things were about to be turned upside down..😔
so lovely to see how they try to calm that beautiful horse done amazing
It looks like the horse isn't spooking, but is tensing up against the curb. The way he continually opens his mouth and shakes his head. It's unusual for a rider to just use the curb reins like this rider has done. You would use the snaffle reins and the curb reins are just backup...
If only I could calm my wife down as quick as that😂
@Earth Extremities lol 😂
@Monty Zumazoom lol 😂😂
🤣
Shh! She’s behind you…
What are you feeding her? Too many oats?
Can tell the man on foot loves horses.
What beautiful horses. How long are their on duty schedules? Standing in 1 place for hrs must be hard and with all the idiots in the crowd.
@Stephanie Pearcy, their life is good. Handled in the morning when they are taken out of their stalls, checked over, feed breakfast then taken to first hour of duty. They stay in their sentry box for the one hour. Then taken off duty. Again, the horses are checked to make sure they are OK. Excuse the pun, there is a whole army Cavalry around to tend to their needs. 🐎🐎🐎
It's as if the horse knows it's job, and wasn't happy that the public was so close to its guard station. So it did what it had to do to make them step back... 😆
What’s the stick for the guy standing next to the horse?
so it´s right. Distance and respect! And the horse says "yes""yes" thanks for loading
The horse is in discomfort watch it's tongue and its head keeps going up and down
I agree with you 💯 👍
We all need alone time 👍❤️🐾
These guys have Velcro attached to their breeches.im surprised the crowd styod back they are so daft .🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧💕
NOT spooked The BIT is UNDER his tongue- wow The Queen loved her horses she would NOT be pleased! 🥹
Disgusting that in this day and age these poor horses have all that painful,torturous metal bits in their mouths, no need for them poor horses
So well handled! Calm and friendly
Horse was not spooked or 'gone crazy' as in the other headliner - the bit was beneath her tongue, causing a painful condition -the horse controlled herself, trying to 'tell' her rider of the situation, her tongue obviously throlling about - head shaking - in pain - yet she didn't buck the rider off - no one noticed this - luckily, they finally allowed her to retreat to the stables and get the bit in the right place.
Horses are not made for city streets, they are for roaming open land.
@ Cheryl Perry Horses can go anywhere they want even to drive thru windows. I’ve done that. 😂
Nope
I’ve rode my horse all over. Sheriffs posse arena, riding downtown on the sidewalk, trail rides, barrel racing, going to fast food restaurant thru the drive thru with a friend. Some horses are lazy and don’t wanna do nothing but stand still.
The Guard did an excellent job of controlling the horse, even with a sword in one hand!
It seems like horse has something wrong in his mouth.
The horse didn't have the bit under his tongue. He was just spooked. Horses will often lick their lips and play with the bit when adjusting to a new circumstance. It is a sign that they are thinking about what is happening, coming to terms with it and calming down, as this horse did shortly after licking its lips.
This horse is NOT spooked. It is having some trouble with the bit in its mouth. Very clear from the start of the video and anyone who knows anything can see the difficulty in the horse’s mouth with him pulling his head and position of his tongue. This horse was NOT spooked.
It's one thing for humans to stand still for hours, it's not right for animals to do that though😡
The horse said: I am scared. So many tourists are here. I want to go home.
She got her bit underneath her tongue, so was in excruciating pain. I read on another video thread that she has a tendency to sometimes be quite chirpy (mares do have a tendency to be this way).
Her behaviour had nothing to do with the crowd (although it's wise NOT to crowd a horse of any breed).
Noble horse, but full of energy.
Tongue above the bit.
Its very painfull for the poor horse 🐎 😢
