Wow... wow... just... wow. Is this the running of the bulls in Spain or somewhere else? The stone cold KOs are stunning.

It is some village, and the ropes on "most" bulls are held by a bunch of folks, but clearly that is not effective.

Some of these dudes are MY age...

Yeah, the ropes aren't even a real distraction. This sort of reminds me of when I worked security at an Argentinean (I think it was from there) rodeo. The bullfighters didn't go one-on-one with the bull and use swords. They came in as a group, in a single file line. The guy in front would "catch" the charging bull and the others would surround him so he would calm down, I guess. In the chaos, one of the bullfighters would grab the bull's tail and the rest would flee. The bull would try to spin around to get the guy on his tail, but the could would just pivot on his heel with all his weight opposite the bull. Eventually, the bull would tire and just relax. They'd bring in a bunch of cows to herd the bull out of the ring safely. It was a really odd sight.

I don't think that old boy who went backwards off the roof will be the same. Ouch!

Slow night. Terri is working in SoCal . I watched this vid again. If you need a (sadistic) laugh give it a watch.

These are the nastiest bulls I have ever seen. You have forgotten.

My apologies.

I think it was somewhere on the east side of Orange County. It was so long ago, and I only went there once. I'd remember it if I saw the place. Looked a kinda like a church out front, but if you walked through one of a couple corridors to the back, they had a small bull fighting/rodeo arena. I saw some interesting stuff in my short time as a security guard.
