Shocking footage shows the moment a member of the Queen's Guard knocked over a boy while marching. In the viral video, two royal guards were seen marching at the Tower of London in the UK, reports The Sun. Dressed in grey uniforms with signature bearskin caps, they were filmed knocking over a child who came in their way.  ???? | WATCH: A kid gets trampled by the queen's guards pic.twitter.com/xzv7W8I2F5 Why weren't the parents keeping an eye on them? It's common knowledge that they're actual soldiers and keep to specific routes that shouldn't be blocked I did that job once. The soldier didn't hurt him on purpose, but they are on guard and move for absolutely no one, unless ordered to do so. If you actually slow the video down the boy was trying to move out of the way the guard was just to close while marching before contact was made pushing the boy over and inevitably cause the boy to be trampled on, however the guards should have avoided protocols to check the boy! Why can't we change the rules so that the guards can just walk around people? I'm sure the answer is “tradition” but who really cares

"Make way," someone was heard shouting before one of the guards collided with the young boy, shocking onlookers. People were heard gasping as the boy fell down. The marching guards were seen stepping over the boy, who immediately got back up on his feet, apparently unhurt. 

The video was first shared anonymously on TikTok, from where it made its way to other social media platforms. On Twitter, it has been viewed more than 2 million times.
