One Twitter user wrote: "Was fun experience to watch until we stood up for the National Anthem, the stand next to us collapsed with someone falling through." "Was certainly a very 'British' experience with us queuing for an hour to watch marching horses and soldiers.""A number of ambulances were at that location and stretchers were brought out for the casualties."
