Footage taken at London's Serpentine lido in Hyde Park shows the woman confronting the men as they took to the pond to cool off in last week's scorching temperatures. The men and their ponies unabashedly dive right into the Lido's water and can be seen just feet away from parkgoers on peddle boats. According to a Freedom of Information request seen by the Sun, ponies in Hyde Park are only allowed on roads and designated riding routes. The group of men is then heard mocking the mum before one sarcastically offers to pay £50 for to get the ponies out. The Lido is a much-loved destination for Londoners in the summer with its paddling pool at the centre of the green areas of Hyde Park.
