That last picture . That is a horrible 'sport,' so I don't have too much sympathy for the dude. Hopefully he wasn't killed though.

Returned to humiliating half-dead bulls that, without hours of torture, would do that to him every time? What a guy.

Hopefully the next bull does the job permanently. Cowards in that sport.

It is real. As I have said, it won the World press photo of the year. they wont give it to a photoshopped photo.

Here is another photo of the accident.
