The video from Buska in The Park displayed the popular tourist spot filled with visitors, as the horse appeared visibly annoyed by people getting too close for pictures.
A group of visitors were photographed as they took their chances standing beside the majestic horse, causing the creature to unexpectedly bite down on the arm of one of the tourists.
The woman fell to the ground as the crowd surrounded her, and she was promptly given medical assistance.
The horse showed its not-too-glamorous side and served a hard bite to one of the tourists

She was visited by a team of armed police officers after she passed out.
Some people online believed the group of tourists should have paid heed to the horse’s warnings.
The horse gave four warnings, someone mentioned.
Someone else said, “If you act dumb, you’ll get dumb rewards…”
One person said, “She brought it on herself,” and another person joked, “The horse goes for a bite and misses, but she goes back for more? That’s wild!”
“There’s a souvenir to take home,” one joked.
Lots of tourists end up getting bitten by the horses when they visit the famous tourist spot in London.

I can’t believe some people don’t understand when a horse is about to bite! Why can’t they just pay attention to the signs and body language? People need to learn to be more careful around horses.
Another person said, “It was already nipping at people to warn them, and there are signs all over the place. I feel sorry she got hurt, but it’s her fault.”
“I’m really sorry for the horses,” someone else mentioned. “They must be feeling so stressed out in this environment.”
The area also provides opportunities for heartwarming experiences with the magnificent four-legged animals.

This thing happening isn’t just happening one time. Even though people are told about the dangers of getting kicked or bitten by horses, some tourists still can’t resist getting really close to them.
Buska in The Park posted more videos of people getting bitten by horses when they get too close. But there are still sweet moments between humans and horses in the videos.
