We are just the armchair critics who think we know it all and have the right to criticize everyone who doesn't do what we think they should. Doesn't that make us as disrespectful as we think they are? Think about it.

    John, in answer to your question about a horse's mouth strengthen - The jaw strength (masseter muscle) of a horse is about 500 psi (pounds per square inch) Humans are usually less than 200 psi, while a Pit Bull measures 235 psi (#3 dog breed in jaw strength) Because of the great deal of force exerted by an equine in closing its jaws, the severity of injuries may range from mild superficial pressure trauma, cutaneous breaks of the skin, deep lacerations with loss of tissue, and injuries to blood vessels and nerves, to amputations of digits and fractures. If you are bitten and it breaks the skin, clean the site thoroughly with soap and water, before covering with a sterile dressing. If the bite is over a joint, hand, foot, or a prosthetic device, a doctor should be considered immediately because antibiotics are most likely indicated to ward off an infection. You did the right thing in getting her to be checked out by the MOD police! If a horse is pinning his ears at you because you haven't earned his respect and trust. The gentle, yet determined nudge, or shove, of a horse's nose can mean a greeting, denote a desire, or convey an intent. We can attribute human phrases like “Hey, who are you”, “Do you have something for me”, “What's this?” or even the more cheeky “Move along” to the nudging of a horse's nose. hope this information helps a bit - The horse guards are NOT an amusement park or petting zoo - I really thought a child would get hurt this past weekend with the rate of 'child danger' incidents filmed by you and a couple other youtubers - maybe the MOD should take a more active role in advising tourists of certain potential dangers or the guard being able to warn tourists/parents to stay back, not crowd his/her horse when it's not in the best of moods -

I spent so much time having to educate them how to act and remain calm around horses. I'm sorry she got hurt but it wasn't surprising the way the horse was acting before this incident.

    A horse is capable of biting off a finger, nose, ear, tearing out hair and scalp, snapping a neck, or that lady was pinched and could have had a chunk of meat removed. Horses cant see directly under their head, or behind butt. Adults and especially children should never stand either place. Horses spook easy, and they can move fast, resulting in injury or death to a person in the wrong place. Bored, or spoiled horses can also be giant toddlers. I use to use a spritz of palmed breath spray to teach horses not to bite. Not toxic, not cruel, they didnt associate the minty fresh breath from a human as I didnt say a word. It always took one or 2 times only to learn. I even taught the Police departments mounted horse trainer that trick. Many people make a game of it while thinking they're training against it. All that slapping at the horse does is make a horse head shy or snappy back. And yes, they can snap bones. Just because they eat vegetables, doesnt mean that cant kill meat. Girl was lucky.

    @maryelyse5633 Yup. .we had horses growing up, and I've seen a lot, including when a donkey but a guys finger off clear down to the first knuckle. And trained or not, I don't get near a horses rear. The length and speed of those rear legs is nothing short of a combination of Flash and Mr. Stretch superpowers.

    the warning signs are posted there - the tour guides should also adequately warn folks - there are always those who believe they are a ''horse whisperer' or laugh although they can't read the military horse's 'danger' signs - glad you helped John, but as a owner/trainer of both english and western style for 20+ years in my younger days I honestly can't feel very sorry for those act that way as it could have really been much worse -

    "Doing horseback riding" does not make her a horse whisperer! If she's really "familiar"with horses, she wouldn't stick her hand under his mouth like that. She was teasing him. He clearly thought she had a treat, hence the bite. (I have a little pony that has bitten me a few times because he thought I had a treat in my hand. I stopped hand feeding him treats and keep my hands away from his mouth. The biting has stopped.)

    When a horse lets you know that they don't want you that close, and the sign tells you the horses will bite, why the heck do people ignore the warning signs? Stupid and they deserve the consequences of their actions. My horse wasn't a biter, hand-fed treats every day, but if people crowded around him, he would have had a go at them. If she "knows horses", she completely ignored what she knew about horses, or she is less educated than she thinks. Glad you left the incident in, fair warning to all. Horses can exert 500 pounds of pressure on a bite, enough to take off a finger from a person. Could produce a crush injury to the bone. This horse only got skin and soft tissue, so she was lucky.

    I don’t agree with the previous comments about the horse being wound up. Before the biting incident, the horse consistently turned his head and was pretty mouthy with anyone close by, probably to get some attention and pets. Notice he never moved his feet which would have resulted in a correction from the Trooper, who, in my opinion, should have not allowed his mount to display such poor manners. The horse shouldn’t be allowed to fraternize with the visitors, just as the Trooper is not allowed to. In any case, when the young woman stopped giving the horse attention, he nipped her. The Trooper seemed to know what was happening, but he didn’t correct the horse right away. Probably tired of tourists all around and allowed things to play out as they may.

    A horse’s incisor teeth are designed for grinding up hay & grass so are necessarily sharpe. They are also used for nipping away unwanted and intrusive behaviour. If that horse had really meant business then she would have come off with a worse injury than just a bruise. Their jaw is powered by the massive massiter muscle which gives it a bite power of around 500 pounds per square inch - more then twice that of a pit bull. To be honest if that lady actually knew about horses other than simply riding them she’d have known not to stick her arm where the horse could grab it when it had “nibbled” everyone who had got close enough. She obviously didn’t gauge the mood of the horse before approaching it. As a Canadian she could have read and understood the warning sign - that she chose to ignore it is no one else’s fault. I suspect that’s one souvenir of her visit to London she’d rather not have collected. Having said that I think you were right to show the incident on your video. The more people who know what a horse is capable of then hopefully more people will respect their space. Especially parents who put their children in harm’s way just for that all important holiday snap.

    Yes my husbands ex Regiment my husband could not understand no one took notice of the warnings, plus soldiers constantly shout dont touch the horse, they hot blooded breed taught to go to war, forgod sake tourist they not there for tourist attraction they are gaurding the Queen ect. They even bite the soldiers while being cleaned and fed in stables at barracks, the soldiers total respect thier breed. And now they are the Kings horses.
