Foreign tourist collapsed as she is bitten by a King's horse

[Blackleaf]

A foreign tourist collapsed yesterday after she was bitten by a King's horse outside the Household Cavalry Museum in London yesterday as she tried to take a photo.

Unfortunately for her, she didn't read the signs warning people not to go near the horses as they could bite, as you can clearly see in the video (or she doesn't understand English).

It seems as though the horses, as well as the burly soldiers sitting on them, are trained to be on their guard.

Don't fuck with, or even look suspicious to, the King and his family. Even their horses will do you in. America's Secret Service could learn a lot from these horses.

I hope the poor horse doesn't get rabies as a result.

This...



... is like when Emu attacked Michael Parkinson in 1976...



It's fucking hilarious.

Don't anger a King's horse and don't anger Emu. That's the motto of today's story.

Did the guard speak? Blink? Remain stonically…stonical?

I don't think he said a word. I'm surprised the King's Guard let the woman get so close to him without saying anything. Usually when someone gets too close to them they bellow out to them to back off. It's usually foreign tourists who think the soldiers and horses are for show rather than actually being the Royals' armed guards. These guys will shoot you if necessary, just as we saw in America with the Secret Service last week. Those guys aren't to be messed with. It seems in this case the soldier didn't need to say anything to her as his horse knew what happening and forced her to stay away.

Back in March an armed Metropolitan Police officer confronted a group of American tourists after they heckled a King's guard in London.

In a video that appeared on TikTok the young Americans (judging by their accent) shouted out names to the King's guard hoping for a reaction. And they did, indeed, get a reaction: from an armed Metropolitan Police officer who told them to leave...

Two days ago armed Metropolitan Police officers confronted a group of young Middle Easterners as they disrespected a King's Guard in London. The foreigners were made to leave. This goes on a lot. Don't mess with these guys.

Those London cops were a class act, by the way. Shame on their teacher.

Also recently: A Corporal of the King's Guard warned tourists: "Don't touch my horses again".

If you can't get near their horses you ain't getting anywhere near the King...
