Running With The Bulls Is Hazardous To Your Health
posted Wednesday, 13 July 2005
Earlier this month, Pamplona Spain held its annual Festival of San Fermin.
This is the annual festival where they release fighting bulls into the
streets
corral them towards the bull fighting ring. Hundreds of fools run through
the streets along with the bulls and many end up getting trampled or gored
by the bulls horns.
I pulled together some of the photos from this year's "Running Of The
Bulls"
It looks pretty painful, to say the least.
Would you run with these bulls ? ? ? ?

Every morning at 8 a.m. (0600 GMT), from July 7 to 14 every year, six bulls are released onto an 825-metre (2,706 feet) course leading through Pamplona's winding streets to the bull ring, where they will be killed in an afternoon bullfight.

Between the horns, inches from the tips and looking the beast in the eye: that's how to run with the bulls in Pamplona. Hundreds of revellers from all over the world take part each year in the annual running of the bulls in this northern Spanish city but a handful of veteran runners, known locally as the 'divine ones', reckon they do it wrong.
