    After watching thousands of hours of your videos (which I never tire of) it is hard NOT to stereo type tourists. Because the behavior repeats itself over and over. There are some distinctive traits in each type. There are the Kevin and Karens that feel like they have every right to manhandle the horses, sometimes feed the horses, walk right in front of someone else trying to take a picture, and feeling no pressure whatsoever to hurry along their process. There are the teenage boys that feel like since they are in a group they should compete with one another to see who can be the most obnoxious. Any one of this immature boys wouldn't have the courage to act out on their own. There are also the Hasidic jewish people who not only encourage their children to misbehave, but do so themselves. They are guided by principles in their lives that require courage to live and look differently than others. But, why do they all act SO disrespectfully? I can't imagine that their religious leaders would encourage such behavior. There are the selfish females that spend endless hours in front of a mirror to get every detail of their appearance and poses runway ready. There are the clueless, rambling zombie like tourists that disrespect the people and the reverence of the place by not spending a second to research proper behavior or protocol and just leaving their trash wherever they are standing. I am American and have traveled all of the world. Any trip starts with learning of local customs, long held traditions, the dos and don'ts of wherever you are visiting. Let alone understanding and honoring these fine young soldiers and horses. Yes, the horses are considered military personnel. Also, thanks so much for the commentary. My favorite part of your videos is what you have started lately by asking some of the public what they were thinking when doing something stupid. We are waiting with bated breath to hear from these idiots.

    If you ever should come to the USA you should visit Tomb of the Unknown Soldier... Those guys would get a taste of what respect and dignity is. Anyone from another country would have their eyes opened for sure..

    Thanks mate enjoyed this adventure into the madness that can be Horse Guards, the title though through me a bit as I expected to see the MOD Officers talking to that group from a certain religious order, which I was about to applaud them as have seen many videos where members from that religious order treat the guards both on foot and horse with little to no respect.
    The older woman who just walked right in was making me so angry but fortunately the lady in pink took over doing her 50 poses for 50 photo moves, and I am sure you run into so many idiot bigots there who forget without tourists so many industries would struggle just like in the Pandemic times.

    There are one or two things you need to know about Horse Guards Parade and the buildings around them, they may not be Buckingham Palace, but they are still part of the Whitehall Estate and part of Crown Lands. For quite a long while the buildings you see housed some of the Ministry of Defence offices, my Dad used to work there, and at another office to the South of the River, which although not guarded by the Horse Guards, had protection of military police, and in times of strife had colour coded warnings shown which banned everybody, not just tourists!

It only takes a few minutes of time to make a positive impact instead of judging and walking away.
