That guard was an absolute bro - properly makes me smile...

Maybe I am mistaken, but I think s/he does this quite a lot because I think J have seen at least one other video.

The horse is of course very well trained, but he is also a good rider (in addition to being a good person)

u/whiterazorblade 23d ago

So as long as people are observe the rules, and don't just start grabbing him, he will take pics, let kids pet his horse (he isn't supposed to do these things). But try to force yourself into a photo with him or be rude about anything, and he will knock your block off.

u/rigbysgirl13 23d ago

The mounted police are very cool, but one must remember they are police and they're also armed around the palace (at least the female officer I saw up close and chatted with was - there is a holstered gun that seemed to be part of the tack on the horse).

u/throwawayaccyaboi223 23d ago

Iirc it depends on the state of preparedness at the time. I read somewhere that they can have a spare magazine loaded with ammo (while the one in the gun is empty) if there is a heightened risk of something happening at the time.

But yes, there are armed police usually just out of the camera's view here.

Yeah, that's not a cop, that's a soldier. This is in England.

u/zveroshka 23d ago

I think part of the issue is that people who are tourists don't realize this guy isn't a performer dressed up. It isn't some cosplay thing. And in their defense, a lot of tourist areas are filled with people in costumes specifically to take photos with tourists.

u/duster517 20d ago

u/Technical-Willow-469 23d ago

I saw one with him with a severely autistic little girl with ear mufflers on. She walked up and non verbally asked to pet the horse and he let her, it was such a sweet interaction to see. I’ve been there, they are super strict with people just randomly touching or grabbing the horse and scream back, so it’s nice to see when they are sweet with kids

10

u/Sheerardio 23d ago

Makes sense, they're trying to do their jobs as guards. Even if they know 99% of them are just dumb tourists, someone randomly getting too close without explanation is a potential threat, and they have to take that at least a little seriously.

2

u/WyrdWerWulf434 18d ago

Apart from anything else, even the best trained horses can spook, and injure dumb tourists. They have to use discretion with who is allowed these sorts of privileges.

It's even better because you can tell it's all about respect for them. When people respect them and stand at a respectable distance and don't disrespect their horse or their time / job, you can tell that goes a long way with them and they appreciate it.

u/IGotABigUsername 23d ago

To be honest, in the videos that you linked and the persons that approached the horse, only the little girl did it politely. She acknowledged and inquired the guard for permission.

And while the others also approached gently, I still dislike their behavior because they didn't ask for permission. They aren't in a petting zoo, they aren't your animals, those horses are working and you should never touch an animal that you don't know and don't have permission to do it.

In fact, if I am not mistaken, I've read some time ago that they now have signs saying to not touch the horses because of the amount of people that used to do it without any permission.

1

u/kirator117 23d ago

You're right. They have a sign now, yep.
And while looking for this videos, I see so many, and I say MANY people who touched without consent... Even a woman trying to go inside while the horse is facing another way getting pet.

You try and search "king horse" and be amazed about the audacity of the people. Is amusing xd

u/DrasticXylophone 23d ago

The horses will never go nuts or they wouldn't be in that posting. They will however bite on command if the rider feels someone deserves it

1

u/Eisenhorn_UK 23d ago

The horses are extremely well-trained, over their entire lives. But at the end of the day they are animals, and these particular animals have been bred, for generations, to maximise their size and power, and so to say they will "never" go nuts is unfortunately not quite true.

For example...

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/jul/01/military-horses-bolt-london-again-break-loose

1

u/DrasticXylophone 23d ago

Loose is different to when being ridden

1

u/Thebraincellisorange 23d ago

they will kick your head off if their rider directs them to. they are very well trained horses.

40

u/realmofconfusion 23d ago

Not quite the same thing, but I once saw a very large policeman on an extremely large police horse outside a football match doing crowd control (I was in my car stuck in traffic)

A very drunk and quite small gentleman was being a bit of a knob so this copper steered his horse over to him, leant over and literally picked this guy up by grabbing the front of his shirt and lifting and shouted in the drunkard’s face “PACK IT IN BEFORE YOU GET HURT” and dropped the chap to the floor. He got up and decided to be even more of a dick, so the copper just gave a tiny flick on the reins and the horse swung its head and sent this guy flying to land about 5 feet away.

He behaved himself after that.

Moral: don’t dick about with horses, particularly with police/military trained horses.

19

u/thunderturdy 23d ago

When they touch the bridle or reins. You can pet the horse and many do, but grabbing reins is about the same as putting your hand on the wheel of a car you're not driving. It can be dangerous and it's not ok.

103

u/ShatoraDragon 23d ago

Yep also seen videos of this Guard and Horse biting and yelling at people who just assume the can get that close for a photo.

76

u/CaeruleumBleu 23d ago

I imagine the horse fucking hates people getting into their personal space, for that matter. It is well trained and tolerates backing into a tight space - but people aggressively blocking the exit and getting up and personal? Perfectly reasonable for a horse to bite if you're being a jackass.

The caretaker human here was very respectful - also, he seems to be aware that the horse is possibly dangerous. He didn't just approach respectfully, he didn't just look and confirm with the rider that this was chill enough to stand still for a photo, he also kept his arm in between the horse and the person he is looking after. Good human.

It ain't reasonable to expect an animal to be "nice" to you when you're a jackass by the animals definition of good manners. You have to be polite by their definition.

13

u/Sumdood_89 23d ago

I saw one where the horse bit a particularly ignorant person and he smirked 🤣🤣

u/Old-Zebra-3107 23d ago

u/ShatoraDragon 23d ago

29

u/NoSleepschedule 23d ago

I've seen a compilation of able bodied people getting smacked and bit by these horses. And then the compilation switches up to disabled children and adults and the horse is absolutely gentle and kind to them. They are also always more respectful to the guards and the horse in comparison. I also remember reading something about how the horses know, and they feel sympathy to them. It's also why Horses are great emotional support animals.

3

u/DrasticXylophone 23d ago

The guards are telling the horse how to feel about any given person. Nice people he tells the horse be nice. Not nice people he tells the horse don't be nice.

2

u/Stickysoccs 23d ago

not nice people? I've seen people walk up for a picture and get bit for no reason.

1

u/Thebraincellisorange 23d ago

you are not supposed to get within 5/6 feet without permission.

if you get too close, the horse will nip at you.

u/lesterbottomley 23d ago

2

u/Life_Barnacle_4025 20d ago

I've also seen that compilation, and when people kept saying that it was different horses I had to point out the fact that the markings were identical on several of the first mean and then nice horses.

18

u/Hohh20 23d ago

From someone who has worked with horses, I have to reinforce how well trained both the horse and rider are. The rider barely made any movement to signal the horse what to do. The horse understood those slight signals and knew what direction to move at what pace.

Horses I have worked with needed a firm press in the side to move left or right, or needed you to lean the rein on the side of the horses neck to get it to turn. I didn't see any of that happen with this rider.

3

u/roehnin 23d ago

I had only one horse with whom I had this sort of connection; we were together daily for more than six years, riding regularly weekends and many summer evenings. Horses traded between many riders don't get to know you so well, and don't have the personal connection needed for this sort of synergetic movement together as one. Watching this brought up so many nostalgic feelings of having had such close integrated relationship with a mount. Absolutely wonderful to see them acting together as one like this. Fantastic.

1

u/Ill_Economy_5346 20d ago

Horse is English trained; not western. We can get them to move in certain ways just using slight weight shifts and the tiniest nudge

8

u/luxsalsivi 23d ago

It makes me wonder if they have a strong bond and he knows this horse in particular is very good in these situations. We of course can't tell exactly what cue was given, but it surely seems like he somehow signalled to the horse, "It's okay, you can go up and get pets."

Like it doesn't seem like he moved the horse to them specifically, like using the reins and legs, but rather gave it some sort of release command to allow it to approach. Kind of like when working dogs are released and seek interactions, treats, and pets but then go back on-duty on another cue.

26

u/littleyellowbike 23d ago

You can see the rider give the horse a very, very slight nudge with his right foot. Because it's such a small nudge, the horse correctly interprets it as "move that way, but slowly and only a little." The rider gives the reins a little bit of slack, allowing the horse to stretch his nose out and say hi, but you can also see the rider tightening up the reins just enough to say "okay, that's far enough." Then after the horse gets a few boops in, you can see a little more pressure against the reins, gently telling him "we've 'misbehaved' long enough buddy, time to get back to work."

Definitely a lot of trust and respect between the horse and rider, and I suspect that horse is one who just naturally likes people.

3

u/luxsalsivi 23d ago

That makes sense. A lot of times with animal/human bonds like that, it's more of a "conversation" than a single command. The person is able to issue a series of small cues, like the nudges forward or slight correction pulls, and a little bit of hands-off to allow for natural behaviors, and all of that flows into a single interaction like this.

It's so fascinating how stuff like this works. Lots of my interactions with my own pets are like this, where we "talk" (interact) back and forth, and I'll use cues for when they need to pull back a bit or focus up, but nothing near as smooth and impressive as this, and especially not involving the wide variables like the public! Amazing handling.

10

u/imitationpeoplemeat 23d ago

I've seen this guy in about a dozen videos. Always keeps his facade up, but is regularly kind towards people taking pictures who are respecting the distance.

He is also good at correcting people who don't respect the personal, but still always keeps the same demeanor.

It's very impressive. Both this man and the horse are very well disciplined and very well natured.

Somewhere out there are some VERY proud parents.

u/roehnin 23d ago

My God this makes me miss having horses.

u/enanvandare 23d ago

2

u/Harvsnova2 23d ago

There are tons of these clips on TikTok. I think the channel is Kingsguards or something.

2

u/pjm3 23d ago

I think it's only the same video being reposted, but I enjoy it every time it's reposted. He's an outstanding rider who has developed an incredible rapport with his horse. With gentle nudges of his riding boots, and nearly imperceptible movement of the reins, he communicates to his mount exactly what he wants done, and that these people are friendly, and not a threat.

They gave these people a wonderfully touching moment, which they will treasure the rest of their lives.

At the other end of the spectrum, you have the jackasses who approach the horse and guard without asking, and even try to hold the halter/bridle/reins. Then they act all upset when the horses nip them, calling it "a bite". If a full grown horse actually bit you, you'd have a lot more to complain about...on your way to the hospital.

2

u/Rizzle_is_ok 23d ago

He's well known for doing stuff like this. I've seen quite a few different clips of similar instances both on and off the horse

2

u/Chemical_Ad_6633 23d ago

Horses are incredibly intelligent creatures. They are excellent observers of body language and understand far more than they are often given credit for. Not only can they be well-trained, but it also requires a significant level of intelligence and temperament to serve as a service horse. From police work to the King's Guard and cavalry, their contributions are remarkable. You can't underestimate how much they are capable of on their own.

The bond between rider and horse runs deep, often becoming almost symbiotic. A good horse can even navigate and take you to your destination without constant control. There are many stories of horses bringing their riders home when the riders were incapacitated due to medical issues, showcasing their awareness and loyalty.

1

u/JackaxEwarden 23d ago

I do think it was the same guard that did something similar for a young boy, just a good human being which is too rare

1

u/SonOf_J 23d ago

I was just thinking, the amount of control he has over that horse looks insane. To be able to tell the horse he can in fact move ever so slightly must be pretty difficult.

1

u/roehnin 23d ago

A horse you ride regularly gets to know you as you get to know them.
You become smooth and integrated in movement as if a single being.
It's a fantastic feeling, and this video makes me miss having horses.

The multual respect from each one is exactly what we need in the world, the Man with the wheelchair looking to see if it's ok while keeping a safe distance, the guard nodding to inform it was, the guard moving the horse closer for a nice photo, then the nod again from the man to thank him.

The more I see videos of these guys being like this, while ramaining professional and still carrying out their duty - I have an overflowing cup of respect for them.

TIP: Someone who suggested they did this job in the past said they don't always appreciate a "thank you" but will appreciate people commenting on how shiny their shoes are or how immaculate their uniforms looks.
The Guards put a lot of effort into this stuff, so to get it noticed is much nicer than a "thank you".

I think guard was a sis, but a good dude regardless.

I think it's policy to make special exceptions for cases like this. Royal guards are 99% of the time not supposed to interact but can choose to for moments like these.

For real. That kind of positivity is what we need more of.

And the horse was a bro too

u/forgetstorespond 23d ago

Not the first video I have seen of a guard doing something like this. They pick their spots very wisely.

I’m sad for the horse. They evolved to run tens of kilometers per day with their teams, not stand still with gear on their face/body to control them.

We humans have really done a number on animals, and have normalized it so much that this comment will get downvoted.

This horse probably eats better than I do

u/Chaavva 23d ago

And excercises better than most people too.

u/Bright_Broccoli1844 23d ago

Definitely exercises more than I do.

Yeah we should go back to the caves and stop harming the world, but eat rocks because we cannot kill animals nor lettuces, because it is so wrong

u/windupanddown 23d ago

That rebuttal doesn't make sense at all. No considerations, exceptions or the likes, just absolute.

u/HighTechPipefitter 23d ago

Original comment didn't have much of that either.

u/Rydux7 23d ago

Blaming us for disrupting the ecosystem just by existing is stupid. You could very well make the same case with every other animal. Now blaming us because of pollution and releasing chemicals in the air is fair, since its not natural, but saying that its our fault because we exist is just stupid

That's what they get for their inferiority.
