Video: King's Guard horse bites arm of woman, who collapses to the floor

King Horse

A tourist collapsed after being bitten by a King's Guard horse outside the Household Cavalry Museum in central London this weekend.

A video shared on social media forums showed a woman approaching the soldier who was on the horse to pose for a photograph.

Ironically, the incident took place right below a warning sign, which read: "BEWARE. THE HORSES MAY KICK OR BITE."

"DON'T TOUCH THE REIGNS," it added, with a thank you.

The woman, wearing an oversized Pink Floyd T-shirt, sunglasses and a baseball hat, got too close to the animal and it attacked her.

The video showed the woman shouting in pain and heading away from the animal before inspecting her wounds. She later collapsed to the ground after being injured.

The video was uploaded on YouTube by the account Buska In The Park.

This is not the first time, the animal has done this, previously alsoit attempted to bite and kick several tourists.

For a very long time, travellers from all over the world have been fascinated and intrigued by the King's Guard, also known as the Queen's Guard.

The Grenadier Guards, Coldstream Guards, Scots Guards, Irish Guards and Welsh Guards are among the soldiers who make up this group.
