Anyone who has ever been in a mosh-pit can probably imagine the excitement of this ancient tradition.
Yes it is cruel I suppose, but unlike Fox-Hunting (which was banned in Britain because that really is 5hr ritual of animal cruelty by super-rich nobility who are completely detatched from reality) the running of the bulls does have cultural history with the population at large.
While I’m not advocating it, I can think of WORSE abuses of MORE animals for SMALLER crowds……
Running of the bulls (aka encierros) is not very bad for the bulls. Problem for them is that in a few hours they will be painfully killed in other of the so called “ancient traditions”
I don’t understand cruelty to animals. If you are going to eat them, fine (although I would rather you didn’t), but please don’t play with your food, and please don’t waste it.
If there’s a camera man, he’s one unlucky sob.
Yup
Actually, this picture is fine. the guy was behind a fence. he took it as the bull was turning a corner.
I hope the guy on the other end had a blindfold and a cigarette.
I rofl’d at that XD
.
I flinched . :/
Red camera FAIL
Believe it or not, that photographer actually didn’t get hurt. It was taken with a remote camera.
