    Glad he made it, but hard to have lots of sympathy.

      A lot of "high hooves" in the bull pen after this one, I'll bet...

      Definitely not Miller time...

    Yeah really. Bull fighting is the most crudely cruel form of entertainment I've ever seen and it's hard to believe this goes on in this day and age. It's nice to see the bull get the best now and again. How would you like to die being stuck in an arena having spears run through your body? So the guy that tortures to death for fame doesn't like being the one gored to death. Tough crap.

      Sal,

      Over here (Santarém, Portugal) there is this big historical and cultural culture of touradas, bullfights, and kids learn to ride horses and to bullfight very very young.

      It's a traditional part of us. Good or bad, it is what it is.

      The new generations are moving themselves out of this tradition and maybe next 20 years it's a dead culture.

      The bull gets destroyed no matter what. At least this one went out with some style.

    I am one to cry even for stepping on a snail, let alone see the bulls being killed in that brutal way! Many years ago I was on holiday in Spain, still a teenager, and my family refused to go to the 'show'...the group returned with bleak looks on their faces...
    Can't say I cried for this scene, let's just hope some will quit. yeah, glad he made it too, won't gain anything by not wishing him well.
