  • That's not changing of the guards... that's just recruits learning how to do drill.

  • But look at the time frame when the brits did that?

    It was the time of European colonial powers, where a lot of nations was squabbling for colonies

    Unlike the Mongols, it was a purely invasion attacking on all fronts.

    The British opponents weren't even given the opportunity to unite and fight against them. Secondly some of the British Occupied opponent areas are already formerly colonized or weakened by another power.

    yep you suck...

  • china sucks.

  • They are good enough to scare the Chinese.

  • They look more like the Peoples' Armed Police (PAP) than the PLA. The PAP now conduct the flag-raising ceremony at TienAnMen Square at sunrise.

  • @Anubayan7

    My Geopolitics professor said Europeans were the Mongols of the ocean, they attacked and stole and colonized land from ALL Fronts.

  • Arm swing. Its serious business.

  • WTF

  • 0:50 - 1:10 Long warming up for that little step...

  • Yes women are allowed to be guards, they guard the inner part of the Forbidden City while the men patrol the outside
