A good day to you, John. I ‘d love to know what the guards speak about when they visit with the Troopers out front? You are right about the Gate’sman, just look how the crowd follows him.
Police security! SWAT security! Security on riding around on horses! Then how? How can ungrateful thugs take free housing, healthcare and food with one hand and deface public property with the other! Any, assistance to them should be terminated! Since they have so much time on their hands, let them get a job! London, I love you!! But the level of audacity of what they did. . . #ItsAboutToGetREAL
I wish there were subtitles for the hard off hearing please
I want to thank you for the voice over and explaining what was going on.
I saw Sizzler yesterday when I found your channel. I'm not sure how many videos I've watched, but I was looking for Sizzler again. And there he or she was.
I love your channel and have subscribed.
Do you know the name's of any books that go into detail about the history of the King's Guard?
Thank you again. A new friend from the USA. (We kind of get a bad rap. We're not all loud and pushy.🙂) God Bless you.
Like button not working today???
Made several attempts. 😮
You deserve the Thanks because you are respectful to the troopers and you do a great job filming John.
when they say move out of the way they mean MOVE idiots poor horse wins again lol
I am completely awed by the Troopers knowledge of their job, the ins and outs of ceremony, etc. As an American I apologize for any “ugly” American who shows disrespect to the Kings guard.😢
How sweet of you. Sadly there are a lot of tourists that show no respect abroad and there are idiots in every country. All the Americans I know are the kindest and sweetest people and they would also be shocked if they thought their countrymen were being disrespectful towards our Troopers. I live as a Brit in Germany and some of the Germans make me cringe on these videos 😂
They r sad lonely people who like to stir things up stand back and wait for a response,best thing to do is ignore them❤
Patty, I am embarrassed too as an American when our fellow countrymen behave badly.
I’m a Nationalized American (former British Subject) don’t be embarrassed, you knew better and that’s all that matters. Common manners well kept will get you through just about everything. xxx
As an American I also abhor the behavior of some of my countrymen. Rudeness seems to transcend all nationalities.
No wonder some of the beautiful horses aren't overly friendly and have an occasional meltdown. Too many tourists around them and touching them.
They are there for the tourists !
@@thecritic81 No there not.
@@thecritic81they are working and don't deserve to be mauled at by ignorant tourists.
@@thecritic81what planet are you on...idiot
They need to put a Stop to the tourists bugging and touching the horses and guards !!!
From 1692 until 1955, all Army pensions were administered by and paid from the Royal Hospital Chelsea, which is why all Army pensioners were often referred to as Chelsea Pensioners. Those who lived 'Out', in the UK or abroad and received their pension in cash from agents around the country were known as Out-Pensioners.
Hi John, from Maryland, your guards are so handsome and gorgeous in their summer uniforms 😍 ❤️ 😀 ♥️ 😊
Filmed 10.04.2024…. Part 2 of 2.
May the Horse not Nip You 😜
Best Wishes 😎
wow, what handsome captains they are.😊
Thank you John for another amazing 🤩 video sorry you to hear that your Paris trip was raining busy but it’s good to have you back in London again how ❤️
Sorry I’ll finish what I was saying it was so nice to see you the Chelsea pensioner and the captain giving those people time wow 😮 and lovely to see the horses and guards in there summer uniform keep your lovely videos coming take care 😅
Omg give guards room to talk its none of your business.well done by guards .respect guards and officers
hope you are having a lovely time in Paris and it isn't raining for you John!
I'm back in London! Holiday over sadly.
@@LondonCityWalks ahh, hope you've enjoyed it while it lasted
Have to agree, the training and control each of these troopers have is awesome!! They have more patience than many police officers dealing with crowd control.
Great video, the different perspectives today made it really interesting.
Great coverage as usual ❤
The Horses are so calm until the Tourists cause agitation by their loud voices and standing too close; surrounding to the Horse. They are BIG Horses, you can get a nice photo from 3 feet away !
Animals can have "off" days just like humans. Poor Darlings!❤
Watching from Winter Haven; gray overcast day here❤
John, you out done yourself on this video. I kept going back to rewatch it. Thank you for your hard work you do.
John what an incredible day you had! Which means we get to! I was so proud and happy that you got to fill behind the horses for dismount! A very different view and I loved it. Thanks for all you do
They were awaiting your return to have the exciting events. Thank goodness that you have returned.
Welcome back John. Two excellent videos today, thanks. I think it all waited to happen until you got back!! 🤣
How was the protest? The Guards a decent size! Good to see. All of the men in my family are over 6 ft tall. My kids being 6'6" and daughter is 6'1".
That horse was like hell no!! I’m not in the mood to deal with these idiot’s !!! I’m going back to the stable!!❤❤❤😂😂😂
I,am always amazed by the total lack of interest shown by a lot of these people .They just keep looking at their phones ,or staring into the air .
Hubby and I have a very good friend and his hubby living in London and in 2000/2001 we went to Colombia for 6½ weeks we stayed with various relatives over Christmas and into the new year and they took us around Cali, Santa Marta, Medellin, Cartagena, Armenia, and lots of other places as well and it was such a beautiful holiday, one of the most beautiful countries to visit. I would recommend having a guide for some areas if you don't know any locals but we had our friend and his beautiful family members who we were with and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. I would recommend visiting if you ever get the chance. 😊
Hi m8 just started watching your videos n find them very entertaining a d informative 👍 keep the great work up ok take care stay safe m8
Lol yes the Trooper did sneeze bless her..hope she doesn't have hay fever, perhaps she has an allergy to tourists 🤧
There should be a sign on the other side of the boxes, DO NOT TOUCH THE REINS
DO NOT CROWD THE HORSES
I didn’t know not to touch the reins until I watched this program. However, it makes perfect sense. Control the reins and you control the horse.
brilliant first 2024 ....stay safe take it easy
These horses are so beautiful and well cared for.
I used to smoke. Can’t believe I did. Ick anyway, I would put my cigarette out on the ground, then put the butt in my pocket. I wore jeans back then. But I wouldn’t even throw a little piece of paper on the ground. Definitely not a can. Sometimes in your videos I see cups on the street by those posts. It’s so rude!!
I would gave anything to over to London and to see that beautiful country I love I Sacramento California so seyi. I woulld love to see that counry
Are the guards randomly assigned horses or do they ride the same horse and develop a bond???? Love your videos and commentary
The people should keep there children 😢back any way.This could happen at any time with the hords of people around.😮😢
How do i get part one of previous video
l feel sorry for the poor horses and handlers
3 socks, looks like a heart that bleeds white down the snout, very skittish, but beautiful.
Which horse is bigger, overboard or Q10.?
The officer is so highly decorated for one so young. I wish I were there to hear clearly what he is saying.
Sizzler saying GET OUT OF MY PERSONAL SPACE.
I was going to see how the lady trooper handled getting off an over 18 hand horse. She had to balance her whole body after swinging her leg over in order to gracefully descend and not end up too close or under the horse. She used great strength and equilibrium perpendicular to the horse’s back lining up perfectly before aiming her legs toward the ground. She is a LOT stronger than she looks!!! Bravo excellent work Lady Trooper!!!!!
She,looks most determined and strong to me. 😁
Sooooo, you’re saying “great dismount!”? 😉
Why do so many people do the finger vee .Love watching the horses but hate seeing people messing with them and so rude .
Why do so many people do the finger vee .Love watching the horses but hate seeing people messing with them and so rude .
@@hessiewatts4406 the finger V is complicated. If the V fingers are facing fwd it's means victory. But if the back of hand is facing outwards at you, it's aggressive like Fk U. That goes back to the wars with France who would cut two fingers of an English archers right hand, to prevent him using a long bow in future.
John you have my vote for official Horse guard videographer, in my opinion they should give you a special jacket designated to all that you are doing the Kings Royal Guards work!
My hubby asked why I watch this. The horses are magnificent, the guards are amazing, and some of the visitors are so stupid and rude!
Oui ,moi aussi je regarde ,suis comme attirée , mon analyse : retrouvé chez eux , discipline , dignité et respect , ce dont n’avons plus !!! Et le lien avec l’animal …… cheval ,qui lui aussi travaille , et avec le respect du cavalier …….. donc ,c’est un tout qui rallie ! L’humain est en perte de vitesse pour tout !!!! La ,suis bien ,en les observant et me permet de me valoriser auprès de bien des visiteurs !!!! La , c’est droit et beau ! Voyez , ne vous sentez pas seule !!!!!! Monique 🇫🇷 😷🤝
Plus their antics are caught on video for the world to see.
Totally agree, being x defence myself I get very annoyed at seeing all the disrespectful and stupid tourists
Amen!! As an American, it's terribly embarrassing when we hear one of our own making us look ignorant. Leave the horses alone. Respect the position of the Guards whose presence are so incredibly important and necessary.
Geez I agree I bet they wouldn't do that in their country 😊
I am so proud of all our Military forces, I just think that we are so lucky to have them all, God bless them all.
We are so blessed in this country the horsemanship of these troupers is beyond belief. John you are doing well with your wonderful videos, you let us see things that are very, very special .
Well yu were kept very busy today. Another fab video again..
Seeing the chelsea pensioner and the captain was really nice to see and a treat not normally seen so well done for picking that up The way that trooper controlled that horse was exceptional horsemanship.
Thank you
Ps
The way buska runs round the yard is so funny. Bless him 😂
Wonderful to see the splendid beast that is Overlord again , no bushes for him to munch on this time 😂😂😂. That's a long way to the ground for the lady Trooper , just before the change over you can see her stretching and flexing her legs in preparation for the dismount 😀. The Trooper on Sizzler was excellent , shouting at the crowds then spending time soothing and settling Sizzler with lots of comforting pats and scratches , that's why he finished his shift , good job both 😊. The Captain with his group of visitors and the Chelsea Pensioner was explaining everything so well , thanks for being there in a totally respectful way John , though we expect nothing less from you that's why you are so well thought of by HCav and your viewers 🤗. Let's get the subscription numbers up folks 😊
The guard playing on a moving horse like that was amazing ❤. Glad to have you back in the land of fish and chips.
The look on that woman's face as she got in position for a photo and standing to close to the soldier,of whom was seeing to horse in the box. Had the cheek to look him up and down. She knew he was there. And did not have the courtesy to give him room. Good one on the guard,s and horses. Nice filming john.😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
The captain seems comfortable, eloquent and patient on his duty. His body language doesn't deny that he enjoys what he does. The type of person who behaves like him, easily stands out at work and is easily promoted within the career he has chosen.
Yes, he seems very professional, but he looks like he's about 16 years old! He appears much too young to be in charge of the troopers.
This filming is simply beautiful John have a wonderful day❤
Don’t the Officers look fantastic I’m so proud of our Guardsmen Troopers and Officers
These videos demonstrate the great appeal of horse mounted military to the people from around the world. Amazing diversity of visitors. I can’t help but think, despite the “rudeness” or “disrespect” of some of the visitors, that all visitors contribute to the economy that would be sorely missed if more draconian policies are instituted. Black informational signs posted on one side of the boxes are tasteful, perhaps bigger RED signs might be universally recognized as warning signs of danger which may result in better behavior?
That's an excellent idea about red signs as warnings saying DO NOT approach and touch horses and Guards they are working. Stand behind 2nd white lines
You hit the nail on the head. “ I’m a stickler for detail”. And, that is why your channel is so popular. You explain everything going on and, you always seem to be where the action is and capture the most entertaining, educational, and bizarre things that happen there. I am surprised that it is, repetitively, the same sect of people who are so rude and disrespectful to the guards. It is as though they have not been cultured and know how to behave as adults. I would have thought the opposite of those folks. I think the word has spread amongst the guards, and there are not goi g to tolerate their shenanigans anymore. I laughed the minute the Chitsman started marching back and forth, and didn’t stop, the minute they walked up in front of him. He wasn’t having it. So much entertainment in one video! Loved it, John. Just stellar!
My sympathy is with Sizzler - he has the most expressive ears I’ve ever seen on a horse. They tell you exactly how he is feeling. His rider is top notch! All that noise and sounds he can’t interpret must be agony.
Too many people, the crowds are a danger. Not only pickpocket haven, more importantly a real security problem. Really John it needs to be taken in hand before a tragedy. Excellent video, well narrated as usual.Like the way you give qudos to Buska and the officer. Classy
Please tell me..who/what is Buska? Im new to this podcast? Video? Whst fyou call it?
That was funny when they announced that lunch was ready , what are we having for lunch then ? IM surprised all the tourists didn't run towards the tunnel 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂. Very good
The tall guard is really impressive the uniforms are magnificent with all the braid great video John 😊
All your videos remind us that we should be mindful and respectful as visitors.
Love seeing those bright red uniforms. Thank you John for your videos
The tall trooper DEF cuts an impressive figure, tho apparently easily missed outside the gates🙄 how, I have NO idea🤷 . 😂sometimes John, if a horse is spooking about something, it’s easier to trot them at it. A bit of momentum makes it harder to baulk. Wow there are SO many people!!and OMG that rude cow in the grey jacket…….in the bloody way and then has the cheek to look offended when she’s almost stepped on and brush herself off like she’d been contaminated by the trooper….silly cow🐮
Thank you so much for that lovely clear shot of Sizzler too. Much appreciated🙏 and yes, kudos to the trooper mounted on Sizzler…..he handled him gently and tactfully, constantly reassuring him with pats and voice…..poor lad was so wired today……it was upsetting for everyone…..except apparently the oblivious tourists.
Are you referring to the Guard that stands 7 feet or 2.134 meters. Very nice gentleman.
I'm really not surprised poor horse is freaking out I would the tourist are very loud today and his hearing is much better than ours it must be thundering to Sizzler. God love him. ❤
Maybe the ultra orthodox Jewish men will have a different opinion after having to serve in their country’s military if the law is changed!
Yes they will fix our clocks
I've read that the Hasidic and Orthodox Jews get a pass on serving in the Israeli army which is monitory for the rest of the population.
The trooper on Sizzler is amazing in dealing with the horse!!!
Great seeing Overlord again and well done to the guard on Sizzler keeping everybody safe around him!!
Another great video loved seeing Overlord again thank you for doing these for us and all your followers ❤
Afternoon John , I don't blame this beauty he/she doesn't want to deal with all those tourists with no not today. People should listen too.
Great listening to the Captain, very informative. Also great to see the Chelsea Pensioner!! Enjoyed the loud shout!!
Chelsea Peneioners are often in attendance at Stamford Bridge om match days, where Chelsea Football Club play in SW6 Fulham.
Thank you John for your videos. I appreciate what you show those like me who haven’t been to the UK from a village called Trundle in Australia.
Hi neighbour👋 from a friend over the ditch 😊
Good grief, I’m addicted to this channel.
Your not the only one, as I don't worry 😊
Yup 😅🎉❤
Makes me very happy to see older ones being respected .
Good morning John from USA I feel so bad for the soldiers and horses having to deal with this everyday I bet their feet are hurting so bad when the day is done I don’t see how they walk in them I love the horses and soldiers I hope you have a great rest of the day Love the video Thank you
I've read that the horses are in the box for 1 hour and then rotate through the horses to the next horse. They also are on duty 2-3 days a week
That dismount closeup was wonderful.
This horse’s white markings are slightly narrower than Ormondes and I think it is a nipper too.
The gatesman has a regal voice!
Watching the trooper control Slizzler was incredible!!!! When you think he has one hand on the reins and one on a sword..amazing!!! xxx
My Gosh the tourists do not stand back for the Officer!
I'm sure John there's definitely something wrong with that box that affects some of the horse's and the crowd's have alot to do with it poor twizzler. The Guards were amazing and so was over lord a great big beauty. Thank you John and no don't go to Colombia all hell breaks loose when you aren't here at horse Guards😁❤ Stay safe John.❤❤🇬🇧🇬🇧
Viene a mi país. Interesante . Hay todo un proceso pedagógico por aprender como quitarse de encima a los turistas molestos. Se lo aseguro
The trooper was prob thinking OMG what a lot of idiots can't comprehend simple instructions. lol
That crowd is absolutely crazy! Claustrophobic.
The King's guard tall stature. Is very attractive. Bravo! The trooper for hurrying the horse in.👋👋 The horse wouldn't gone in. Any other way. Luv all the King's horses they're gorgeous. The King's guards dismounting was beautifully and effortlessly done.♥️💂🇬🇧🐎
Sizzler’s Trooper has a lovely, strong voice.
Overlord! Yeah. Fabulous. ❤
Respect to these guards, one handed.. double reins..sword! I know what it's like to control a horse in the middle of the road on its hind legs having a total meltdown with two hands free!
Oh John... you old flirt ...😂😂😂. Women are putty in your hands😂😂😂
A great vid..again
Diolch 🏴👍
What a pleasure to watch. Thank You , John
1:02:50 Overlord :- love the way the lady trooper is reassuring Overlord with pats and scratches.
1:04:05 Sizzler, not happy but made to the end of his shift. Congratulations to the trooper for keeping him there and controlling Sizzler so nobody got hurt, tourists, Sizzler, or trooper.
Such a great video! Lots happening with the shouts, tall gates man, Captain. The Chelsea pensioner and officer were impressive.The horse is the boss!
Marvelous display of horsemanship @ 59:30 !! I agree, John; a very good morning. Thank you.
The uniforms are so elegant.
Why are people so ignorant ? They wouldn't behave like this in their own countries so why in London?

Very charismatic dashing Life Guard Captain there, I've seen him before, he seemed to be such at ease with everything going around him, the way he was explaining everything in such a pleasant and calm manner. Maybe someday, who knows, we'll have the honour of you interviewing him, John☺☺ He would make for such a great tour guide. The trooper on Sizzler managed to pull it off brilliantly, it didn't look good the way Sizzler had the meltdown at the beginning of his shift. I've seen the trooper leading Sizzler into the box before, as a boxman or gateman, now he was on crowd&horse control. He does sometimes give me a somewhat stern, direct and very determined vibe when he's a boxman, the way he handles horses. I've seen him preparing Lancelot for the Elizabeth Cup as well, i couldn't mistake him because of his tattoos on his arms hah, they are very unique😀 A determined manner is good, i guess, but i didn't see him comforting horses too much, it's not his thing. The trooper on Sizzler managed to calm him down with pats and scratches/caresses,while Sizzler did the "polka" dance a bit in the box, but he didn't get into the "waltz" too much, which was a good sign. I guess we should never under-estimate the power of soothing words/gestures with most horses in distress.
A calm, soft voice and a few gentle pats go a hell of a long way with a toey horse. It really can’t be overestimated how much the demeanour of the rider affects the demeanour of the horse.
@@paulinemegson8519 Wow! So horses can pick up on the mental and emotional state of the rider. Thank you so much for confirming this for me, what i wrote above was based on my observations and my intuition, but not too much from prior riding experience. So sometimes, horses may display a certain irritated behaviour not because of something explicitly bothering them but because they are reacting to how the troopers feel/behave at that point in time, am i correct in saying this? For me, it's very important to know because i can re-evaluate certain situations that i have watched regarding certain horses at Horse Guards behaving oddly and without obvious reasons(excluding medical ones of course). Incidentally, it was one particular trooper, different horses, almost identical odd behaviours from the horses.
@@Roox8115 well if you really want an illustration of this, look at the way the horses behaved after the incident with the horses that bolted in London earlier in the year. The troopers were doing their best to keep calm, and just carry on the routine but EVERYone was on edge….how could they not be? And all the horses were nervy and jumpy because of it. The thing is, humans, even tho we might look calm, show a lot of signs that animals can pick up, when under stress, from simple chemical markers that alter our scent, to the way our voice sounds, to the tightening of muscles that a horse can FEEL when being ridden. Not to mention that these troopers lives revolve around the horses while they’re in ceremonial….they live next to them, their care is their primary task, and they spend most of their waking hours around them, and this creates a bond. That said a GOOD horseman keeps their own feelings under control because they’re the one in charge and it’s their responsibility to keep their horse calm. Watch Princess Anne when she is controlling a jittery mount. Utterly calm. Or better still, the Queen when she had shots fired at her while riding, sidesaddle, in procession, and her horse, understandably, spooked. Completely calm, and concentrating on calming her Mount which she did, very quickly.
Sorry John I asked if you had gone on holiday and you had just come back, I didn't hear that. A kind person let me know that, so i thanked them. Hope you had a grand time and the weather was kind
the trooper gaurd doing a great Job ,,, with the horse ....OMG .....SKill xoxoxo
All the guards do an excellent job.
The crowds are insane.i hate crowds and don’t take part in tour groups. I fear that the powers that be are going to have to control the tour groups and how many are allowed because something quite tragic could happen.
Husband asked to see “the horses” this morning. New fan! 😊
A warm welcome to the Channel! ❤️
if the tallest trooper was on Overlord they would not fit in the box
such majestic horses its not a wonder they have meltdowns having faces and hands and loud noises right in their faces for a period of time I would probably act the same way love your videos
Wow!! Horse grabs the Captain's fingers 😕
😂 Horse reminds me of our beagle when he passes gas. He reacts the same way! Our 144 lb. Blond Lab didn't react that way. He just ran with us all happy, when we ran to get away from the oder. Does make me wonder though if that one box has more vibration in it,
