Visitors to Buckingham Palace were left calling for the police when a prankster punched a fellow actor who had dressed up as a Queen’s Guard. In the stunt performed by online jokers Trollstation outside the royal residence, an actor in the uniform of the Queen’s Guard – pretended to be knocked out cold after answering back to his partner in crime who was ‘mocking’ him. But onlookers who had no idea it was all for show were appalled and a member of the public tried to raise the alarm by crying out through the Palace gates as the ‘soldier’ lay on the floor.
The actors then filmed another stunt in which the tables were turned and the actor dressed as the guard lashed out at his fellow conspirator, who was playing a member of the public at nearby Horse Guards – the official entrance to St James’s Park and Buckingham Palace. The video captures the actor again taunts his friend dressed as the guard and waves his hands in front of his face, boasting that he is unable to do anything about it as he’s ‘not allowed’.
