A female tourist in the United Kingdom had an unusual vacation experience when she was bitten by one of King Charles' guard horses. 

In a video circulating online, the woman is seen attempting to pose for a photo next to the horse outside the Household Cavalry Museum. Within seconds, the horse gave a brief look before biting her arm.

The tourist quickly jumped back, yelling in pain and collapsing to the ground. Police officers arrived promptly to check on her condition.

Despite the unfortunate incident, viewers noted that the woman had been warned about the horse’s behaviour beforehand.

A sign reading "BEWARE: Horses may kick or bite" was visible in the footage, suggesting she either ignored or did not see the warning.

This is not the first instance of a member of King Charles' herd injuring a visitor. Various similar incidents have been reported. TMZ remarked that the tourist now has "one hell of a vacation story."
