It is amusing that you chose today to post this. This weekend is the rodeo and Heritage Days in Stathmore, a town about 30 miles east of Calgary (where Diesel Dave2 lives) and where I work. I actually live out near Strathmore. About 5 or so years back, the rodeo organizers added a 'Running of the Bulls' to the agenda. No WAY I am going anywhere near that. It is just nuts!!!

I agree but some people will do almost anything for that adrenalin rush these days. Including risking their life for something as stupid as this.
Crazy stuff people do...
I guess standing on a boardwalk is the next thing people will do for excitement, as I'm sure some middle aged bull will just try run them down...

A car can be just as deadly as a gun and when a crazy person wants to kill people they will use anything that will cause massive casualties, including a car. That is something the Obama administration doesn't seem to comprehend..
Well, they can just do a background check on people purchasing a new car, then institute a 30 day waiting period before they can drive their new Hyundai. That will fix it so no one can hurt anyone else ever again.

As callous as this may sound I like seeing the idiots that want to run with the bulls get mauled. Hopefully their insurance won't cover their stupidity. Keep running I need the laughs.
I haven't watched that last video but even the picture of the guy with the horn buried in his lower leg makes me gag. I could never be a 'First Responder'. I have never thought that I had a weak stomach but as I am getting older blood and injuries seem to be getting harder to take. I can handle it when I have to clean puke, poop or pee from the dog or a baby in diapers, but I am having a harder time every passing year dealing with injuries. My kid sister has been an ER and ICU nurse for years and some of the stuff she tells me, makes my knees weak.
Getting old sucks.

I watched that video..... thanks for the laughs.... !
Speaking of laughs,
I cannot help but think that those bulls are having a really great time goring those "infidels" into the ground and making ground beef out of their skin as they get pounded into the street surface If bulls can smile, I'm witnessing it in that video...

The lucky ones go up, and find something to grab onto on the way by. You're a lot better off with a bull if it throws you up than if it knocks you down.
People are scared to death at the mention of a bull. I'd rather go a round with our bulls than our momma cows. The bulls are pretty docile, but they come home and get fed 9 months of the year, too.

When I was in the Azores, the "running of the bulls" was one tethered in the town square and folks teased it. One drunk guy got too close, mocked the bull, turned his back and went for a plane ride... coming back down the bull caught him in the horns, drove him into the ground stomped him with front feet then turned and kicked him with rear feet. That was one badly mauled portagee.
