Has anyone ever been? a Bizarre tradition, would never be allowed in England but an 18 year old kid died today, 7th person in last few weeks, personally I don't get it, the bulls must be scared out of their wits but the people choose to be there, risking life for a bit of an adrenaline rush?,

Sympathy is with the bulls not the deceased imo

There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games.
Report Ron-Russian August 17, 2015 6:41 PM BST
there's some sickening footage of bull fighting on you tube where they take a slow
painful death,

nothing better than when the bull catches them & breaks their skull in half

Mountaineering a sport? Shocked
Report Mikael D'Haguenet August 17, 2015 6:50 PM BST
You have no problem with bullfighting or motor racing being called sports though?

Don't want to get on my high horse re Bull Fighting, but did you ever see the young (12 year old I think)
apprentice "Matador"?

A sickening spectacle that I would never have otherwise watched! He was injured but "made" to carry on.

People actually take children to watch this barbarism! Angry

The ex forumite sibaroni did the bull run more than once. He somehow seemed proud of it.

Which ones?

Should be outlawed...this practice is as far away from a sport as it can possibly be. I personally would like to see more deaths at the hands of the bulls...the younger the better...maybe then the retards who allow it to continue might start to take a different view. Long live the bulls.

I agree it is a horrible bizarre tradition...

Ooh got to go and saddle up and break out the hounds and meet the rest of the crew. There are some foxes that bally well need teaching a lesson. Now where did I put the 12 bore.

I sincerely hope the matador experienced a very painful death and his family are severely traumatised.

In that case, killing bulls for sh!ts and goggles is ok.

I hope you get wrenched away from your family, sold as a piece of property then get your balls cut off then.

Are the bull runs any more or less cruel than whipping a horse to make it run quicker?

4 more gored to death, and while I won't gloat as they may leave behind distraught family members, it really does serve them right. Obviously not an ounce of compassion for animals in them, and that to me is what maketh a man.
