Queen’s Guard turns his gun on an annoying tourist

queen's guard

A member of the Queen’s Guard lets it be known that he is more than just a tourist attraction.

The men in red coats and black hats have become something of a must-see for tourists, making them appear a little less intimidating than they would have hoped.

But when the time comes, they make it clear that they are not to be messed with.

In this video, which was reportedly filmed at Windsor Castle, a man is seen mimicking the march of a member of the Queen’s Guard, the Independent reports.

Off-camera, someone can be heard saying, “his gun is jammed,” implying that the mocker was in no real danger.

The man decides to press his luck by putting his hand on the soldier’s shoulder, and it immediately becomes clear that the Queen’s Guard has had enough.

Without skipping a beat the guard turns to the tourist, gun pointed directly at his abdomen, and shouts, “Step back from the Queen’s Guard!”

The tourist immediately jumps back, shocked, while the people behind the camera can be heard laughing.

Seconds after, as if nothing had happened, the guard continues his march.
