Changing of the Guard Ceremony at Plaza de la Armería in Madrid, Spain. This event was captured on May 4, 2016. Long-version video is at • Changing of the Guard ...
He's not "angry", horses aren't "angry" animals. He's restive, wants to go with the other horses, doesn't like standing still while the others pass him - because horses are herd animals, and their natural instinct is to follow other horses. He's upset, and needs more training, that's all. Beautiful horses.
@@queen_estefani8157 This guy is entirely correct. Look up CZcams videos on what a real angry horse looks like man....if that horse was angry this video wouldn't have been this calm.
You're right that he isn't angry, but he still doesn't necessarily want to go with the other horses. That horse is just frustrated to be there. He does need more training, more training on how to be in big groups of people.
@@queen_estefani8157 No one is saying they know everything about horses....just this one statement clarifying the horse isn't angry. Some of us do know horses A BIT because we were raised around them. Stop putting words into people's mouths just because it wasn't you who taught others about horse behavior.
I’ve never been around horses, but I started watching the Queens military men here, during Queen Elizabeth’s funeral, but haven’t seen the changing of the Guard 💂♀️ until now. This was by far the best reaction I’ve ever seen, because the horse 🐎 was showing his rider how he belonged with his “homies” and not in time out. He’s a really beautiful horse 🐎!
The rider was nothing short of AMAZING! Calm hands, calm leg and seat - and all while holding a banner. He is to be highly commended. An example to all.
I was watching his hands all the time, never once did he tighten the grip. All the control must have been in his legs and that was very subtle. A well trained horse and rider.
The horse's hind hoof was against the bollard which might have contributed to this but I have nothign but admiration for the rider who kept the animal under control. Wow
The rider really had no choice, I don't see the need to praise him. The horse was obviously having a problem with the bit, and that should be the main concern in my opinion. It seems the horse was not used to being ridden in this situation.
Kara Bravekin i don’t think you watched untill the end the rider gave him a hard kick beceaus he didn’t liked it anymore and thats not normal the horse didn’t meant it bad and he gets a big kick fron the rider
This was a stallion so he was either reacting to the other horses or smelled a mare in season. Now if you are a horse person like most of us, you can tell that this horse’s ears were not pinned. So thins stallion was not angry. He was clearly just exited and wanted to go do whatever he wanted to do. This horse was not angry *period*
I agree with mare in season. He was chattering (for lack of better term) his teeth together. That rider was pretty dang impressive! Very cool to watch this horse!!
Having to stand for hours with metal in his mouth can't be comfortable though. You'd need to pay me a lot to piggy back somebody with metal in my mouth for a parade. I wish people would just not exploit animals for entertainment like this. Horses aren't here for our entertainment they exist for their own reasons, I'd much rather see horses chilling in fields than tacked up on pavement for royalty. There heads look so unnatural looking. No horses don't like bits and yes bits cause pain to horses esp when over excited like this.
The horse is not responsible for its actions if it doesn't even understand why its there or what's happening... the rider is getting mad at the horse for wanting to be a horse, and kicks him out of anger. if it were me, I would have got off and distracted him from his frustration until he was calm, then get back on...
@@shy5551 1. the horse is responsible for his actions. the rider did not make him behave like that, it was the horses own decision. 2. the rider didn't "kick" him, he gave him a signal like "stop, it's enough now". nothing abusive, nothing too much, just what he should've done. he handled it perfectly. 3. this is clearly some sort of bigger thing, he can't just jump off the horse and then go back on. it doesn't work like that. also, i bet your not as much of an angel as you make yourself look, you'd probably be a bit angry if you were the rider too. don't come here trying to look perfect, because no one is.
@@shy5551 He handled that horse beautifully....... He 'the rider' is doing a job, he can't just hop down off the horse dip chit! STFU & gtfoh! He handled that horse perfectly......
First of all -- well done rider. Well handled, with no agitation or undue force. Not easy when you're meant to stand quietly and your horse is simply not happy with being left behind. :) It may well have been the stallion's first time doing this, and he just didn't want to be left behind. Nothing angry about that, just impatient. Also... it makes no difference whether it's a stallion or not. It's simply herd instinct.
I agree with everything you said up until the last line. I don't agree with the stallion statement. If it had nothing to do with it there would be a lot more stallions in the world and far fewer geldings. Nearly every stallion I've worked with is far more spirited and independent than a mare or gelding.
@@msdarby515 It depends how they are kept. My own stallion is in a small herd, and always has been. He's very chilled and very easy to handle. Independent, yes, but so are my geldings. But herd instinct is simply "Don't leave me", whether it's a mare, gelding or stallion. My gelding would react exactly like this guy. He hates not being allowed to follow. I think the biggest compliment I ever got, was when the trainer I sent my boy to to be backed, texted me and went "That's the most well socialized stallion I've ever met. No drama. No fighting. Just really chill even out with horses he's never met before." I've worked with many stallions in my life, and I swear having this guy in a herd all his life made a huge difference to his demeanor.
@@SilkeJuppenlatz I don't know anything about horses never riding one etc. So can you tell me if this horse was comfortable with the thing they call the "bit" in his mouth, he looked like he was moving his mouth alot 🤔 many thanks 😊
@@SamSam24270 he was comfortable with the bit. Yes his mouth was moving, that was because he was antsy, like when you jiggle your foot or drum your fingers. In a way he was communicating with his rider - "let me go I don't want to stand still let me go" and his rider was talking back "hang on be patient just a minute." If he'd been uncomfortable with the bit you'd have seen his head raised, mouth wide open, eyes staring. He's been well handled and trained; he just didn't want to do his job at that moment and was saying so 🙂 Both horse and rider did well 👍
@@thesecretlifeofgil870 i know that not only stallions do this but a lot of stallions do, and in the end of the video you can see he is a stallion. If he does that how do you handle it? Just a question😊
xlfs.tessa 05 I often ride a horse that's not a stallion, but he hates being alone, left behind or slowed down. He needs to be the first in line or he goes overexcited with too much impulsion. He's a very nice horse that I deeply love. He just hates standing still
So just because hes a stallion doesnt mean anything. Hes either not trained well enough or the damn torture device in his mouth(bit) is causing him physical pain. The guys lucky the horse didnt flip over on him and crush him.
@@veren771 that bit has nothing to do with the horse being in any kind of pain. As you can see he barely moves his hand at all. Depending on the breed of horse can depend on how a stallion acts. There are so many variables in horses that you can't act you know everything about them. I've worked with horses over 40 yrs and I learn something new all the time.
He could have been in better control without the dumb flag. Clearly being able to adequately calm an animal should take precedence over pageantry. He’s a good boy, young and restless. The rider was extremely adept.
Two quick "comments" The horse would never become "angry" in the way humans would. Instead it was communicating in the only way it could (and did a splendid job of it too!) that it was over standing in one spot whilst its fellow horses got to out to "play". Second, the rider upon the restless creature was steady as a rock and did his job. He clearly knew the horse well and, with his body, conveyed to the horse what needed to be conveyed - something like "calm down now. Take it easy, it's almost over." Or something like that.
Sounds as if you have ridden a few horses in your life. Every comment you stated was right on. During the entire time I kept saying to myself, easy now over and over.
@@lindareppert9612 Hey Linda, thanks for the response! (Gosh, I hope you were talking to me!) Yes, I have spent many hours on the back of a horse in my 30’s mostly. My husband taught me (he was a bareback rider in the rodeo) and my engagement ring was a retired barrel racer chestnut 1/4 horse. I loved him! He was reliable, sure-footed and loved slow trips into the Arizona Deserts. I loved him a bunch!! I love to see the great bond between horse and rider. This guy knew what his horse would/wouldn’t do and how to get the best out of the animal. ❤️
Do you think the horse was communicating pain from the bit? Horses don't get "angry." They're prey animals with a relatively small repertoire of responses (fight, flight and freeze). To me, this horse is in flight and is getting ready to displace his rider. This will be for a reason caused by the rider. I suspect in this case it's pressure/pain from the bit (which the rider is applying constantly with no release). There might be other points of discomfort, too. There's so much tack on these poor horses at big events.
@@kyliejones8827 No, he wasn't in flight, fight or freeze mode - horses in domestication quickly learn many more responses than that - that is WHY we were able to domesticate them. He was merely in 'I want to join all my friends' mode, and in a bit of 'hmm is that the perfume of a mare in heat?' mode. But his overall mode was 'bloomin heck, how much longer do you want me to stand here for, fidget fidget, oh go on, if I must, but fidget fidget ...'
He's not angry, horses are herd animals and the fact that he's a stallion makes the urge a lot harder to resist. And the commotion is probably making him excited or anxious, beautiful horse all around. The rider did a great job staying calm during this
@@scenery001 No, he was disciplining the horse. The rider waited out the horse's tantrum and at the end he gave him a spanking to remind the horse who is in charge. Nothing wrong with that. He didn't kick him over and over, or dig his spurs into the horse's sides. This is how you keep a young stallion in line.
The horse was just impatient and wanted to go with his friends. Also he's a royal guard, he has to stay calm otherwise he'll lose his job (I'm not even kidding royal guards can lose their jobs for laughing even)
A stallion with mares passing by. I think he shows remarkable courage and self control. The rider very wisely allowed him to work off some of that energy by remaining calm and respectful of the animals behavior. The horse responded by remembering his responsibilities. Bravo to both.👍
This horse is not angry😁. I never sah an angry horse!😂 I don't know how old he is but they have to be trained to stand still! This is not easy because they always want to go with the others! The guard is fantastic! Wunderful calm! Respekt! With one hand! And it would be dangerous if he would start running!! It needs 2 months, as i see it, to get them trained. Every day. This work is not easy. And, only a few have the nervs to stay calm, whatever the horse is trying to do! ( My grandfather had many horses! Different ones! He and my uncles trained them . Me by myself i could ride a bit😁😁! ) I was very proud, because they never hurt a horse to break there will!
@@annemariaossarekreijnders3608 An "angry" horse kicks, bites, and rears, also, if you're wondering his age, I'd say 2-4 years, based on my experience with horses. And someone actually bonded with a horse for 2-3 months, I'm sure that horse wouldn't mind risking it's life for that person(depending on the breed.)
@@joligra that's funny! You do realize they have a mind of there own right? They can be a-holes sometimes. Just like a person, they can have good days and bad days. The fact that you believe horses are always good and the rider is bad shows you know nothing.
@@itsallgood4093 If the rider does good, the horse will reflect that. Riders blame their horse all the time for mistakes THEY made. It's quite hilarious.
He is NOT Angry !! First if you notice he is a Stallion.. He is competitive and wants to be in the lead ... He is AWESOME and just needs more time to teach him to stand still !
Linda Vandenbroek, what is happening here is NOT insecurity and wanting to be part of the herd. This is about aggressive male dominance. He is wanting to bully all the other males out of the way, and mount one of the mares. If he did that, he could potentially kill one of the riders. I can assure you that if a randy stallion decides that he is going to get at the mare that you happen to be riding, then you need to get off her, very fast indeed.
The official JW, why don't you read the other posts before agreeing. Like I said, when someone who DOESN'T know makes a vague suggestion, they get 600 likes from ignorant people. This horse is NOT insecure, and he is NOT following the herd instinct to simply go like a sheep in a flock. This horse is a MATURE male, a STUD (that means he is a fine horse that is used for breeding.) (We KNOW he is a stud horse, because if he was NOT wanted for breeding, then his testicles would have been removed to calm him down. (That is the affect that castration has) This horse is NOT angry, but he IS aggressive. What he really wants to do is bite and kick the other male horses and MOUNT one of the females. If he was not under the control of a skilled handler, he would be dangerous.
The rider did a phenomenal job. He managed eveything just with his legs and weight. He did not pull once at the reins. That's how you should handle a (young) and exited stallion.
Not angry. He’s just “up” and feeling himself. Although he was restless he still listened to his rider. The rider does a fantastic job of knowing his mount and keeping calm.
@@shy5551 the title of the video is Angry HORSE. I was saying the horse isn’t angry. The rider gave a behavioral correction at the same time also said “calm down”which he did, he stopped jogging on the spot. No anger involved from the rider at all.
The title is misleading. This horse isn’t angry - He was just asking why everyone else was going and he had to stay put! Brilliant horsemanship and partnership, neither was bothered xx
Kudos to this guard for not missing a beat on this horse and keeping the horse contained! BRAVO! Sir, BRAVO! That horse really wanted to be with its stall mates or is still very young & learning the ropes. What great horsemanship this guard showed as well!! Blessing@, peace, & prayers 🙏
@@autumnkelly7909 ... please wAtch THE VIDEO. IF YOU HAVE EYES. GELDINGS DO NOT HAVE BALLS. IM IN THE BUSINESS 50 YEARS . THIS IS A STALLION. PLEASE LEARN STALLIONS HAVE BALLS!
Omg same!! But honestly it’s so funny reading the comments of non-equestrian people, just reading all these comments they put when they don’t know anything about horses😂😂
This is a brilliant show of excellent horsemanship. The way the rider was able to rein in the horse very discreetly and keep him under control with one hand while still holding the flag, the way he was able to discipline the horse without getting angry or emotional, all in all it was satisfying to watch someone so skilled at what they do
@@loriackerman6525 Considering that horses don't typically have issues with gender stereotypes, except for susan, I'm going to guess that the horses dangly bits are a good indication he's male.
this horse is certainly not angry. It's nervous and frustrated. It wants to follow the other horses, rider keeps the horse in place, horse starts to scrape hooves as a sign of 'hey let me go forward, I want to go forward" rider doesn't let horse go forward. Very calm rider, good job! also if you look at the ears, they are indeed pointing backwards but only so far. They are not pinned in the neck, the horse is simply paying attention to the rider.
Pawing at the ground is also a sign that a horse wants to lie down, which is what he tried to do. You could see his legs moving in preparation for it ("buckling" in a sense)
Not angry, and not really stressed, he's showing typical stallion behaviour, bowing his neck, stomping the ground with the front legs, pooping, yelling... He feels the need to show his strenght to horses around him that's all.
Maybe he was in training, but the screaming and looking toward the herd is natural for a stallion. He may of been stressed, but he definitely is acting that way due to his balls.
Good rider. Calm and patient. Thus stallion may just need a few more miles under him or was having an off day, wanting to do what he wanted to do. The title is misleading.
Actually, what I see here is a horse that is buddy sour (wants to go with the others) and bored/impatient, and a rider who's legs are a little loud, aggravating it.
This has nothing to do with Horsemanchip. Every good rider knows that stallions are so difficult to ride because of their quickly changing moods. and believe me, I know that very well because firstly I trained a horse myself and secondly because I've been riding for a long time. and third, we have a stallion in the stables.
@Ye Olde Horsemanship Channel with a martingale and double reins and severe bit. Spanish aren't exactly renowned for their great horsemanship via actual horsemanship. It is in the legs, not the rein. Dude has zero contact between his calves and the horse's side. That is horsemanship 101 that kids learn to do. Yanking in the head just makes that type of behavior worse.
@Ye Olde Horsemanship Channel there was no leg work. Please address that. I rode dressage for years and interacted with "traditional" Spanish riders who would insist on severe bits and head control. My instructor made us as young riders, ride in halters or drop reins. Use our legs to guide the horse.
@Ye Olde Horsemanship Channel this is considered utility to you? Lol. I consider farm horses and ranch horses actual utility, these are parade horses. Also a deep seat isn't the only thing needed, you can get your horse to turn by shifting your weight and making it yield to leg pressure. Constant working of the calf muscles. I was able to drop the reins and get my horse to do jumps and obstacles. Legwork is way more important.
I love that when this horse gets antsy he’s just casually doing dressage in place, like, just watching the way he jigs, you can see how beautifully trained he is
Yeah, I was admiring his training the whole time too! Beautiful. And that's why they say dressage is just training the horse to do natural movements on cue... 😁
I completely agree with one poster here, that's not an angry horse that's a frustrated horse. You can tell by the way he tried to trot off everytime horses came through. He just wanted to go with the rest of the guys
He's frustrated, not angry. HE just wanted to go with the other horses lets not forget horses are herd animals and he's just insecure aout standing on his own without his buddies, happens to my horses sometimes, its natural though
Keishla Canning He’s one of the Queens horses. I assure you he’s fine. The Queen adores horses and they are pampered. He’s clearly a stallion, they have bad days like everyone else. I think his jockey handled him well.
Mom isn't letting him out to play with his friends so he's throwing a little temper tantrum. Honestly though, he's probably a little anxious to join the others. Not unusual, just amusing for a serious situation.
Your actually stupid. I've seen these riders best their horses if they do them any good. Horses are flight or fight animals if this horse is scared enough to be on his own he probably is driven and trained by fear. Obviously the horse is paranoid and I bet if that rider let him walk off he would have not played with the horses he would have simply rode on the side of them for safety. I like the fact though, that he holds that position because if he did let the horse go he would be basically saying, I want you to stay here but since you want to go there I will let you do what you want. Then next time what will the horse want? To go
Julia Northcott, that's rot. THis is a randy stallion who whose behaviour is actually quite intimidating to the other younger horses. The ground pawing, and scenting is particularly macho and s show of strength. If this was a male human rolling his eyes, snorting down his nose, and flexing his muscles, would you think he wanted to run away? Or something else? .
MandyJMaddison every behavior has to be looked at in its own context. It’s not black and white. Sure two stallions squaring up is them trying to intimidate but pawing the ground can also mean boredom, stress, frustration, anxiety, insecurities, or even just be a trained behavior (I don’t mean in this video specifically, just in general) except this horse is stressed/frustrated not trying to show off. He’s clearly just trying to follow the other horses. Pawing can also a big stereotyptic behavior just as cribbing can be.
He's not angry, he's pouting. Horses litterly pout like 3 year old who can't go with there friend's or don't get what they want and that is why I love them 😂❤ They are thousand pounds of personality lol
@River The Dalmatian Nope, have you ever worked with young stallions? They get quite worked up around other horses, with all the Testotorone running through their body. This young man was clearly trying to interact with the other horses, not pouting. That is something a child that got a no, would do.
@River The Dalmatian Also maybe ask some people that actually works with stallions, what they see. If you misinterprit your horses reactions and bodylanguage, you're on course for either major problems or injury. Sorry to say.
@@derruffian5150 And the young man is clearly frustrated because he's unable to interact with the other horses, so he is acting up because he can't get his own way like 3 year olds do.
No, horses don't pout. People pout. Horses act on survival instincts 100%, so this was probably a combination of stallion hormones and concern that his "herd" was leaving, triggering a survival instinct. (Horse trainer of 18 years.)
He is just the type of horse who likes to keep moving . I have a mare who loves to just move , to be doing something . They need to find one who doesn't mind standing still .
Mariah Manning that’s entirely incorrect, this horse isn’t angry. horses aren’t angry animals, he’s impatient, antsy and agitated because he’s being asked to stand while his other horses move on without him.
this poor dude 😭 it’s so hard to keep a horse under control like that especially while keeping a straight face. but tbh he’s doing a pretty good job! Thats the best you can do
Obviously the horse's "herd mentality" makes him want to go with the other horses, that is a normal thing. Maybe the horse is still getting trained to understand. Yes his legs may loud and aggravating the horse, but no one is perfect. Every rider can list out hundreds of things they need to work on including the professionals. Instead of saying what is wrong, we should start the feedback in a positive way. So, I think it was brilliant at how calm the guard stayed during all this, because I would've started to panic a little!
@@olivianordrehnby1283 not necessarily, there are different kinds of bits. I've only had one horse out of the dozens we've had over my lifetime that had to be ridden with a broken bit. He was "Gai Ibn Warsaw", Arabian stallion.
The young man who was on that horse did a fantastic job keeping this situation under control because it could have been really bad so good job young man! ❤️🐴❤️
This was some masterful handling. He never grabbed at the horse’s face and kept him between his legs. If he wanted to paw out of frustration, he let him. That horse thought he should be joining one of those small formations/herds. These officers are very well trained! Bravo!
Angry horse! Err no. Stressed and anxious maybe. Have to say respects to the rider for remaining so calm. I know they are trained for this but still, good job.
He’s not doing a good job! He’s putting him in so much pain that the horse is getting even more stressed and is trying to escape the pressure and pain constantly, but this rider isn’t giving him any release!
StrideAfterStride Yes, he did also want to follow but, just by looking at his face and the rider’s hands, you can tell that that pain is making things worse.
@@alicegoodman8526 Have to agree what someone else Has said. Not everything is related to the bit. This horse has probably done this thousands of times before and is used to it and the rider. Maybe there was a mare in season or he was just having an off day. The rider had to keep him like this to prevent the horse injuring himself or people watching. What did you expect him to do, loosen the reigns and let the horse run freely etc? Seriously, not everyone is abusing their horses you know!
Depends on the stallion and training. I ride mine with a rope collar. But, he's kept in a little herd, so he's never hard to handle around other horses.
Well it was the riders fault in the first place that the horse was acting up. The horse was obviously uncomfortable with other horses passing him, and the rider never once gave any real relief to the horse's bit.
A master class on how to keep your horse calm! They are both so amazing to watch. This to me shows how force is not the way to communicate with horses and also how smart horses are, they are able to fight their instinct. That is intelligence.
He's not "angry", horses aren't "angry" animals. He's restive, wants to go with the other horses, doesn't like standing still while the others pass him - because horses are herd animals, and their natural instinct is to follow other horses. He's upset, and needs more training, that's all. Beautiful horses.
It doesnt help when the rider keeps backing him up into the stone

So thins stallion was not angry. He was clearly just exited and wanted to go do whatever he wanted to do. This horse was not angry

What a perfect experienced rider. He does not touch the reins in difficult situations. This is the correct way.
Great respect to that rider. Keeping a young stallion in place is a TASK and he did not once lose his composure. Well done!!!
The horse is not responsible for its actions if it doesn't even understand why its there or what's happening... the rider is getting mad at the horse for wanting to be a horse, and kicks him out of anger. if it were me, I would have got off and distracted him from his frustration until he was calm, then get back on...

"Masterful Rider Calms Jigging, Restive Stallion." There, I fixed the title for you.
namu 5264 Love it! And with one hand, too!
And that's exactly what he was!!
Right on!
Perfect fix, kept your reins on that English vocabulary and made it obey!
namu 5264 Yes, you certainly did !
The rider did AMAZING!!!! I am so impressed with his patience, control and stability.
First of all -- well done rider. Well handled, with no agitation or undue force.
Not easy when you're meant to stand quietly and your horse is simply not happy with being left behind. :)
It may well have been the stallion's first time doing this, and he just didn't want to be left behind.
Nothing angry about that, just impatient.
Also... it makes no difference whether it's a stallion or not. It's simply herd instinct.
I agree with everything you said up until the last line. I don't agree with the stallion statement. If it had nothing to do with it there would be a lot more stallions in the world and far fewer geldings. Nearly every stallion I've worked with is far more spirited and independent than a mare or gelding.
@@msdarby515 It depends how they are kept.
My own stallion is in a small herd, and always has been. He's very chilled and very easy to handle. Independent, yes, but so are my geldings. But herd instinct is simply "Don't leave me", whether it's a mare, gelding or stallion. My gelding would react exactly like this guy. He hates not being allowed to follow. I think the biggest compliment I ever got, was when the trainer I sent my boy to to be backed, texted me and went "That's the most well socialized stallion I've ever met. No drama. No fighting. Just really chill even out with horses he's never met before."
I've worked with many stallions in my life, and I swear having this guy in a herd all his life made a huge difference to his demeanor.
@@msdarby515 PS Stallions are very misunderstood and deemed "dangerous" by many people. Most horse yards won't take a stallion.
@@SilkeJuppenlatz I don't know anything about horses never riding one etc. So can you tell me if this horse was comfortable with the thing they call the "bit" in his mouth, he looked like he was moving his mouth alot 🤔 many thanks 😊
@@SamSam24270 he was comfortable with the bit. Yes his mouth was moving, that was because he was antsy, like when you jiggle your foot or drum your fingers. In a way he was communicating with his rider - "let me go I don't want to stand still let me go" and his rider was talking back "hang on be patient just a minute." If he'd been uncomfortable with the bit you'd have seen his head raised, mouth wide open, eyes staring. He's been well handled and trained; he just didn't want to do his job at that moment and was saying so 🙂 Both horse and rider did well 👍
They picked the right rider to train that horse.
the horse is alrady train he is rly clever horse he was dancing he was not angry
@@stangidle-is6cg no. maybe the word angry isn't the best descriptor, but that horse is definitely upset

Cutest temper tantrum I've ever seen

I laughed as well. 😀
I felt bad for laughing at him, ole boy clearly wanted to run with the rest of them. Then he started throwing leg and I was done 🤣
Agree with your great description- cutest temper tantrum.
LoL I love how he started stomping the ground. 😄 What a character. 🤸 The rider really held his position as well as could be.

Don't forget he is a stallion😅. That makes it a little bit more difficult, and he just wants to follow his friends😄
@@thesecretlifeofgil870 i know that not only stallions do this but a lot of stallions do, and in the end of the video you can see he is a stallion. If he does that how do you handle it? Just a question😊
xlfs.tessa 05 I often ride a horse that's not a stallion, but he hates being alone, left behind or slowed down. He needs to be the first in line or he goes overexcited with too much impulsion. He's a very nice horse that I deeply love. He just hates standing still
How do you know its a stallion? Also why are they using Stallions and not Geldings
So just because hes a stallion doesnt mean anything. Hes either not trained well enough or the damn torture device in his mouth(bit) is causing him physical pain. The guys lucky the horse didnt flip over on him and crush him.
@@veren771 that bit has nothing to do with the horse being in any kind of pain. As you can see he barely moves his hand at all. Depending on the breed of horse can depend on how a stallion acts. There are so many variables in horses that you can't act you know everything about them. I've worked with horses over 40 yrs and I learn something new all the time.
Can we talk a second about how the man on this horse stayed calm and absolutely didn't treated bad the horse or something even if it was moving a lot?
And he only had one hand. That’s impressive
He could have been in better control without the dumb flag.
Clearly being able to adequately calm an animal should take precedence over pageantry.
He’s a good boy, young and restless. The rider was extremely adept.
@@mindakahn9964 this is clearly some sort of bigger ceremony, you really think he should've just dropped the flag? wow
@@mindakahn9964
The entire point of ceremonial guards is pageantry.....
Beautifully handled, and notice the reins were still loose most of the time.
Two quick "comments"
The horse would never become "angry" in the way humans would. Instead it was communicating in the only way it could (and did a splendid job of it too!) that it was over standing in one spot whilst its fellow horses got to out to "play".
Second, the rider upon the restless creature was steady as a rock and did his job. He clearly knew the horse well and, with his body, conveyed to the horse what needed to be conveyed - something like "calm down now. Take it easy, it's almost over."
Or something like that.
Sounds as if you have ridden a few horses in your life. Every comment you stated was right on. During the entire time I kept saying to myself, easy now over and over.
@@lindareppert9612
Hey Linda, thanks for the response! (Gosh, I hope you were talking to me!)
Yes, I have spent many hours on the back of a horse in my 30’s mostly. My husband taught me (he was a bareback rider in the rodeo) and my engagement ring was a retired barrel racer chestnut 1/4 horse. I loved him! He was reliable, sure-footed and loved slow trips into the Arizona Deserts. I loved him a bunch!!
I love to see the great bond between horse and rider. This guy knew what his horse would/wouldn’t do and how to get the best out of the animal. ❤️
Do you think the horse was communicating pain from the bit? Horses don't get "angry." They're prey animals with a relatively small repertoire of responses (fight, flight and freeze). To me, this horse is in flight and is getting ready to displace his rider. This will be for a reason caused by the rider. I suspect in this case it's pressure/pain from the bit (which the rider is applying constantly with no release). There might be other points of discomfort, too. There's so much tack on these poor horses at big events.
@@kyliejones8827 No, he wasn't in flight, fight or freeze mode - horses in domestication quickly learn many more responses than that - that is WHY we were able to domesticate them. He was merely in 'I want to join all my friends' mode, and in a bit of 'hmm is that the perfume of a mare in heat?' mode. But his overall mode was 'bloomin heck, how much longer do you want me to stand here for, fidget fidget, oh go on, if I must, but fidget fidget ...'
@@lizzieburgess674 Look at his mouth... 🤔🤔🤔
Can we take a moment to appreciate how calm the rider stayed and did not treat the horse badly because it was excited
He's not angry, horses are herd animals and the fact that he's a stallion makes the urge a lot harder to resist. And the commotion is probably making him excited or anxious, beautiful horse all around. The rider did a great job staying calm during this
I also love that the rider did his best to not pull on the horse’s mouth.
But in end he kick horse strong look in video end and rider leg he scared horse more
He probably felt pretty nervous though. That’s where experience tells the tale.
@@scenery001 No, he was disciplining the horse. The rider waited out the horse's tantrum and at the end he gave him a spanking to remind the horse who is in charge. Nothing wrong with that. He didn't kick him over and over, or dig his spurs into the horse's sides. This is how you keep a young stallion in line.
@@scenery001 nope, He didn’t even kick hard. All it was is a tap. Do you ride horses? Because if so you’d know that that’s not hard at all.
I'm very impressed with the rider, he never looked frustrated, just completely calm.
rutontuton yes but that poor horse was so uncomfortable. Look at the body language
@@Morgan-hi4rf Yes!
The horse was just impatient and wanted to go with his friends. Also he's a royal guard, he has to stay calm otherwise he'll lose his job (I'm not even kidding royal guards can lose their jobs for laughing even)

A very beautiful, powerful and spirited stallion. Great horsemanship by the soldier!
Probably smells a mare in heat
A stallion with mares passing by. I think he shows remarkable courage and self control. The rider very wisely allowed him to work off some of that energy by remaining calm and respectful of the animals behavior. The horse responded by remembering his responsibilities.
Bravo to both.👍

The guard is fantastic! Wunderful calm! Respekt! With one hand! And it would be dangerous if he would start running!! It needs 2 months, as i see it, to get them trained. Every day. This work is not easy. And, only a few have the nervs to stay calm, whatever the horse is trying to do! ( My grandfather had many horses! Different ones! He and my uncles trained them . Me by myself i could ride a bit😁😁! ) I was very proud, because they never hurt a horse to break there will!
@@annemariaossarekreijnders3608 An "angry" horse kicks, bites, and rears, also, if you're wondering his age, I'd say 2-4 years, based on my experience with horses. And someone actually bonded with a horse for 2-3 months, I'm sure that horse wouldn't mind risking it's life for that person(depending on the breed.)
Excellent job of staying in touch with your horse. Rider stayed calm and patient while the horse worked at patience.
excellent horsemanship from the rider, its nice to see riders keeping their composure while on an excited stallion! xx

We have 500 comments saying this
He is NOT Angry !! First if you notice he is a Stallion.. He is competitive and wants to be in the lead ... He is AWESOME and just needs more time to teach him to stand still !
what a stupid title, all this horse wants is follow the other horses (herd instinct). he is just insecure.
Linda Vandenbroek just what I was gonna say
No he's a stallion and he's horny af
Linda Vandenbroek thank you!
Linda Vandenbroek, what is happening here is NOT insecurity and wanting to be part of the herd.
This is about aggressive male dominance. He is wanting to bully all the other males out of the way, and mount one of the mares.
If he did that, he could potentially kill one of the riders. I can assure you that if a randy stallion decides that he is going to get at the mare that you happen to be riding, then you need to get off her, very fast indeed.
The official JW, why don't you read the other posts before agreeing. Like I said, when someone who DOESN'T know makes a vague suggestion, they get 600 likes from ignorant people.
This horse is NOT insecure, and he is NOT following the herd instinct to simply go like a sheep in a flock.
This horse is a MATURE male, a STUD (that means he is a fine horse that is used for breeding.) (We KNOW he is a stud horse, because if he was NOT wanted for breeding, then his testicles would have been removed to calm him down. (That is the affect that castration has)
This horse is NOT angry, but he IS aggressive. What he really wants to do is bite and kick the other male horses and MOUNT one of the females.
If he was not under the control of a skilled handler, he would be dangerous.
The rider did a phenomenal job. He managed eveything just with his legs and weight. He did not pull once at the reins.
That's how you should handle a (young) and exited stallion.
Excited?
He did pull at the reins, it's subtle, the sign of a good rider but he didn't pull too much.
Very impressive horsemanship. Do they really use stallions? He looks quite stunning. Great rider!!
😂🤣😅 NiNa @ normal ! Why phänomenal? He will know the Horse and to ride....he gets paid for it!
Beautiful... The way that both the horse & rider kept it under control. Lovely to watch ❤️
Doesn't seem angry just seems like he's having a panic attack or is just fed up.
1:24 that tantrum tho 😂 What a cutie. He needs a little more training but rider did a good job remaining in control and staying calm
Not angry. He’s just “up” and feeling himself. Although he was restless he still listened to his rider. The rider does a fantastic job of knowing his mount and keeping calm.

he kicked the horse out of anger....@2:27

If you need to kick your horse you are not ready to ride that horse
The title is misleading.
This horse isn’t angry - He was just asking why everyone else was going and he had to stay put!
Brilliant horsemanship and partnership, neither was bothered xx

This is a brilliant show of excellent horsemanship. The way the rider was able to rein in the horse very discreetly and keep him under control with one hand while still holding the flag, the way he was able to discipline the horse without getting angry or emotional, all in all it was satisfying to watch someone so skilled at what they do

Just a spirited stallion and a rider that knows him very well
Juan Andrés Montecinos How do you know it's a stallion?
@@loriackerman6525 Considering that horses don't typically have issues with gender stereotypes, except for susan, I'm going to guess that the horses dangly bits are a good indication he's male.

@@loriackerman6525 neck and general build ;)
May I ad. Spirited and young by the looks of it. He looks lipizaner or andalusian
this horse is certainly not angry. It's nervous and frustrated. It wants to follow the other horses, rider keeps the horse in place, horse starts to scrape hooves as a sign of 'hey let me go forward, I want to go forward" rider doesn't let horse go forward. Very calm rider, good job! also if you look at the ears, they are indeed pointing backwards but only so far. They are not pinned in the neck, the horse is simply paying attention to the rider.
Nope. Look again. The bit and bridle are set wrong and causing pain in the horse's mouth, which is the reason for agitation. And can you blame him?
Pawing at the ground is also a sign that a horse wants to lie down, which is what he tried to do. You could see his legs moving in preparation for it ("buckling" in a sense)
AlphaNightstorm nope
johnsoncm65 nope
Naomi K he just wants to go with the others
Just a stallion being frisky. The rider did an excellent job. 👍
Not angry. He's just impatient. And a stallion. Great rider. 👍
How still and calm that rider sat on that stallion! Hats off too him!!!!!
Peter the Horse SAME I AGREE!
Not angry, and not really stressed, he's showing typical stallion behaviour, bowing his neck, stomping the ground with the front legs, pooping, yelling... He feels the need to show his strenght to horses around him that's all.
Yep... Just being a stud horse.
Exactly....And he's frustrated because the last thing on his mind is to stand still...so he is acting out a bit and testing his rider.
The head bowing Is from his breed, the traditional bow in the neck is to allow guards to look proud, the same reason they were used as war horses.
Maybe he was in training, but the screaming and looking toward the herd is natural for a stallion. He may of been stressed, but he definitely is acting that way due to his balls.
LOL, my boy does all of this and he's a GELDING! And no, he wasn't gelded late :)
Grey Boi is just on a learning curve. No one says huskies are "angry"! Vocal, energetic.
Absolutely amazing riding.
What an exceptional display of horsemanship, quietly correcting so a frustrated young stallion can learn his job
Good rider. Calm and patient. Thus stallion may just need a few more miles under him or was having an off day, wanting to do what he wanted to do. The title is misleading.
exactly what i thought...amazing rider, horse may be green for this sort of thing.
👍 ☺️
And holding that whatchmacallit.
Hats down for the rider.
That horse isn't angry it just wants to follow its friends
Horse isn’t “angry” . He’s a STALLION ! Likely a Mare in heat walked by. Boys will be Boyz !!
The horse isnt angry. Its stressed out.
Actually, what I see here is a horse that is buddy sour (wants to go with the others) and bored/impatient, and a rider who's legs are a little loud, aggravating it.
Jennifer R. Povey Yes, I agree with you there. You can tell by the way the horse is prancing when the other horses go by.
Jennifer R. Povey you are both right
I think
He is a stud.... not a gelding and this is typical of how some studs act.
That's a great display of horsemanship there.
They got it from the Prussians
This has nothing to do with Horsemanchip. Every good rider knows that stallions are so difficult to ride because of their quickly changing moods. and believe me, I know that very well because firstly I trained a horse myself and secondly because I've been riding for a long time. and third, we have a stallion in the stables.
@Ye Olde Horsemanship Channel with a martingale and double reins and severe bit. Spanish aren't exactly renowned for their great horsemanship via actual horsemanship. It is in the legs, not the rein. Dude has zero contact between his calves and the horse's side. That is horsemanship 101 that kids learn to do. Yanking in the head just makes that type of behavior worse.
@Ye Olde Horsemanship Channel there was no leg work. Please address that. I rode dressage for years and interacted with "traditional" Spanish riders who would insist on severe bits and head control. My instructor made us as young riders, ride in halters or drop reins. Use our legs to guide the horse.
@Ye Olde Horsemanship Channel this is considered utility to you? Lol. I consider farm horses and ranch horses actual utility, these are parade horses. Also a deep seat isn't the only thing needed, you can get your horse to turn by shifting your weight and making it yield to leg pressure. Constant working of the calf muscles. I was able to drop the reins and get my horse to do jumps and obstacles. Legwork is way more important.
He’s not angry, he’s annoyed of how sharp bits you use.
The equine equivalent to a toddlers temper tantrum. Brilliant work by the rider.
I love that when this horse gets antsy he’s just casually doing dressage in place, like, just watching the way he jigs, you can see how beautifully trained he is
Yeah, I was admiring his training the whole time too! Beautiful. And that's why they say dressage is just training the horse to do natural movements on cue... 😁
@Grace Jaye What a beautiful comment! So much andalusian in it :)
It's the bit, not the training, that's keeping the horse in place
@The Dark Overlord because the horse can't be well trained without training?
Excellent horsemanship to the rider of this beautiful stallion! He wants to be with the other horses and he isn't "angry".
I completely agree with one poster here, that's not an angry horse that's a frustrated horse. You can tell by the way he tried to trot off everytime horses came through. He just wanted to go with the rest of the guys
He's frustrated, not angry. HE just wanted to go with the other horses lets not forget horses are herd animals and he's just insecure aout standing on his own without his buddies, happens to my horses sometimes, its natural though
Keishla Canning He’s one of the Queens horses. I assure you he’s fine. The Queen adores horses and they are pampered. He’s clearly a stallion, they have bad days like everyone else. I think his jockey handled him well.
Selina Kyle I agree the rider did an amazing job

Bro this isn't a pony from Tennessee . These are the most pure breed educated horse's he's clearly a stud and one of the many horse were mares !!!
@@sybilcandless550 shut up Liberal swine
Mom isn't letting him out to play with his friends so he's throwing a little temper tantrum. Honestly though, he's probably a little anxious to join the others. Not unusual, just amusing for a serious situation.
Danielle VE he wants to bang the mares. Seriously
Your actually stupid. I've seen these riders best their horses if they do them any good. Horses are flight or fight animals if this horse is scared enough to be on his own he probably is driven and trained by fear. Obviously the horse is paranoid and I bet if that rider let him walk off he would have not played with the horses he would have simply rode on the side of them for safety. I like the fact though, that he holds that position because if he did let the horse go he would be basically saying, I want you to stay here but since you want to go there I will let you do what you want. Then next time what will the horse want? To go
Julia Northcott, that's rot. THis is a randy stallion who whose behaviour is actually quite intimidating to the other younger horses.
The ground pawing, and scenting is particularly macho and s show of strength.
If this was a male human rolling his eyes, snorting down his nose, and flexing his muscles, would you think he wanted to run away? Or something else? .
MandyJMaddison every behavior has to be looked at in its own context. It’s not black and white. Sure two stallions squaring up is them trying to intimidate but pawing the ground can also mean boredom, stress, frustration, anxiety, insecurities, or even just be a trained behavior (I don’t mean in this video specifically, just in general) except this horse is stressed/frustrated not trying to show off. He’s clearly just trying to follow the other horses. Pawing can also a big stereotyptic behavior just as cribbing can be.
Yup, hate when my guy does that in local parades... lol....
Молодец всадник. Удержал. И удержался. Выдержка супер!
Great job by the rider keeping him together and staying calm. Stallions always have a little bit of 'tude lol it is what makes them so awesome!
He's not angry, he's pouting. Horses litterly pout like 3 year old who can't go with there friend's or don't get what they want and that is why I love them 😂❤ They are thousand pounds of personality lol
Pouting? This is a young stallion reacting to other horses, the way a young stallion with all the testostoron would do. Nothing to do with pouting.
@River The Dalmatian Nope, have you ever worked with young stallions? They get quite worked up around other horses, with all the Testotorone running through their body. This young man was clearly trying to interact with the other horses, not pouting. That is something a child that got a no, would do.
@River The Dalmatian Also maybe ask some people that actually works with stallions, what they see. If you misinterprit your horses reactions and bodylanguage, you're on course for either major problems or injury. Sorry to say.
@@derruffian5150 And the young man is clearly frustrated because he's unable to interact with the other horses, so he is acting up because he can't get his own way like 3 year olds do.
No, horses don't pout. People pout. Horses act on survival instincts 100%, so this was probably a combination of stallion hormones and concern that his "herd" was leaving, triggering a survival instinct. (Horse trainer of 18 years.)
Beauty of a stallion. Rider exceptionally well in control.
Not knowing or owning Horses. Thank you for the explanation. It makes perfect sense.🐎🐎🐎
Excellent rider teaching a young horse patience and manners.
Well done to the solider for not getting frustrated👏🏽
He's not angry... He's herd bound or buddy sour. He wants to follow his friends.

Mariah Manning that’s entirely incorrect, this horse isn’t angry. horses aren’t angry animals, he’s impatient, antsy and agitated because he’s being asked to stand while his other horses move on without him.
this poor dude 😭 it’s so hard to keep a horse under control like that especially while keeping a straight face. but tbh he’s doing a pretty good job! Thats the best you can do
The poor boy just wants to run lol. The stomping got me laughing! Excellent job by the rider!
That horse wasn't angry, it just wanted to go with the others
Cecilie Østergaard IT was stressed
Obviously the horse's "herd mentality" makes him want to go with the other horses, that is a normal thing. Maybe the horse is still getting trained to understand. Yes his legs may loud and aggravating the horse, but no one is perfect. Every rider can list out hundreds of things they need to work on including the professionals. Instead of saying what is wrong, we should start the feedback in a positive way. So, I think it was brilliant at how calm the guard stayed during all this, because I would've started to panic a little!
Nicole Sydney yeah, he’s also probably used to riding this horse or has had experiences like this. Who knows? He still did well.
Your looking at a very well trained horse throwing a temper tantrum...

Poor horse, ready to join the party. Fortunately he had a sweet person that could comfort him. You can see they are partners.
2:28 - 2:29 look at the rider's foot
DieWeltderAmelie se llama toque de atención
He stabbed him with spurs at the end
Agree
Yeah he's clearly a stud and they are usually very unwilling to stay still
This was some masterful handling. He never grabbed at the horse’s face and kept him between his legs. If he wanted to paw out of frustration, he let him. That horse thought he should be joining one of those small formations/herds. These officers are very well trained! Bravo!
O love watching this horse time again.I hope he is doing well these years gone by.
He wants to go, he wants to be with his friends, what an excellent piece of horsemanship keeping that lovely horse in check!
Angry horse! Err no. Stressed and anxious maybe. Have to say respects to the rider for remaining so calm. I know they are trained for this but still, good job.
debbie peter plus he's got his balls which could be a factor if theres mares in heat
He’s not doing a good job! He’s putting him in so much pain that the horse is getting even more stressed and is trying to escape the pressure and pain constantly, but this rider isn’t giving him any release!
Greg Greg no. The horse wants to go with the herd but needs to stay in place. Not everything is related to bits
StrideAfterStride Yes, he did also want to follow but, just by looking at his face and the rider’s hands, you can tell that that pain is making things worse.
@@alicegoodman8526 Have to agree what someone else Has said. Not everything is related to the bit. This horse has probably done this thousands of times before and is used to it and the rider. Maybe there was a mare in season or he was just having an off day. The rider had to keep him like this to prevent the horse injuring himself or people watching. What did you expect him to do, loosen the reigns and let the horse run freely etc? Seriously, not everyone is abusing their horses you know!
Kudos, young horse soldier. You made that look almost effortless
The horse wasn’t angry.Horses have a strong herd instinct and don’t want to be left behind when other horses are moving away.
Not angry, frustrated. The man was doing an excellent job in holding the horse steady and was not getting annoyed with it. He was very calm.
Kudos to the rider for doing a very good job controlling his mount in a rather gentle way and with only one hand.
Whatever the horse was thinking, he’s adorable.throwing his little tantrum ☺️🤗 his little Winnie so cute
Wow that rider is amazing. Stallions are not an easy ride. He controlled him without force and I am sooo impressed.
Depends on the stallion and training. I ride mine with a rope collar.
But, he's kept in a little herd, so he's never hard to handle around other horses.
He kept backing into that concrete post which probably confused him.. The rider did well keeping him under control with one hand.
Q
Kathy Edens ..I agree..He certainly did very well keeping the horse under control .
Well it was the riders fault in the first place that the horse was acting up. The horse was obviously uncomfortable with other horses passing him, and the rider never once gave any real relief to the horse's bit.
He's a stallion and there's likely mares on heat. He's acting out because he's frustrated, not confused etc
Ruth McGhie no. He's just horny.
A master class on how to keep your horse calm!
They are both so amazing to watch. This to me shows how force is not the way to communicate with horses and also how smart horses are, they are able to fight their instinct. That is intelligence.
I wouldn’t say he was angry, he just wanted to go.
He isn't angry. Just excited, look at the position of his ears.
It's not angry, just a young stallion learning patience. He'll get it.
