The King's guards, renowned for their meticulous routine and stringent discipline in protecting various locations throughout the United Kingdom, happen to attract tourists worldwide. Recently a tourist was injured as she posed for a photo with one of the horses of the Guard stationed outside the London museum

Visitors come from all over the world to take pictures with them outside Buckingham Palace or St. James Palace, however, sometimes they overstep their bounds and act in a way that enrages the King's Guard. Many even place their hands over the guards or their horses as they pose for pictures.

Recently, a video of a King's Guard horse biting a tourist as she posed for a photo has been making rounds online.

The footage shows a tourist being attacked by a horse stationed outside the London museum. Numerous tourists in the video were posing for photos near the King's Guard horse when a woman entered the scene wearing a Pink Floyd T-shirt, sunglasses, and a baseball cap.

The woman gets bitten by the horse as she gets close to the animal trying to take a quick picture. She screams in pain and rushes away from the scene, where other tourists check her arm for any injuries. "She got a really bad injury," the man said in the clip.

In another video, the injured tourist was seen on the ground, appearing to have collapsed, while a person fanned her. The cameraman man then informed the police officials to assist. Three cops surrounded the victim, as per the now-viral footage and appeared to help her.

Notably, a notice also appears on a wall cautioning visitors not to come close to the horses or touch the reins. It said, "Beware! Horses may bite or kick."
