Do you know why bodyguards keep their hands in this awkward position? On Trump's victory parade after winning the elections, there was this suspicious guy in the back who held his hand static in this awkward position. Another one can be seen with the same hand placement and posture at the beginning of the parade. This specific hand positioning can also be seen on Jeff Bezos's bodyguard, as well as multiple King Charles's security guards during his meeting with the public in London.
