I think I've seen that one before (or at least a similar one, I'm sure there are plenty like it). Its interesting because I was taught that if someone or something is in your path when your marching you mark time (basicly marching on the spot) until they move or your given an order to wheel or turn. Must be different when your on guard duty or something. I've seen one video where a particularly obnoxious American tourist decided it would be a good idea to put his arm around a Grenadier Guard (and this guard was patroling, he wasn't standing still) so the guard turned around, pointed his rifle at the tourist and yelled something like "Get back from the Queen's Guard!". I think the tourist needed to change his pants after that if you get what I mean... I saw that one too! And i get what you mean. After all, we're all men. That guy first tried to walk with the guard, fine. Then, he puts his arm on the guard's shoulder. Yeah, the guard's reaction was predictable! BTW how do you know that? Are you a soldier? Or a scout? Or something like them? Yeah that's definetly the one I'm talking about. I saw another one where a tourist (I think he was Israeli, he was definetly Jewish and he had an accent that kinda sounded Israeli to me but I could be wrong) who went up next to a guard, I think it was a Horse Guard, not sure but he wasn't a Grenadier Guard, and started talking to his friend who was near by about how he knew the guard in school and came up with these funny stories. He was trying to get the guard to laugh and eventually he sucedded. I think that one was ok because it was clearly a joke and he didn't touch the guard or say anything offensive or anything. As for how I know that....well I'll PM you (and anyone else who's interested). I will say that no I'm not actually in the millitary. I don't want to say how I know here where any random guy on the Internet can see but I don't mind talking about it in PM. |

Note I'm not stereotyping or anything, I say he's Jewish because he was wearing a Kippah which to my knowlege is only worn by Jews. |

It was funny though |
