    Stupid enough to run with bulls? You get the horns.

    He died

    Not exactly the safest tourist activity in the world.

    Also, it was some other bloke, not the guy in the picture.

    I do like this. Somehow it's the bulls fault.
    All the problems were caused by a bull from the Jandilla stud in the run today, the fourth of the year.
    The brown bull, with number 106 and named ‘Capuchino’ has proved to be one of the most dangerous in the history of the runs, leaving the group and attacking the runners in the area of the run known as Telefónica.

    I don't think it was him that died. They said on the RTE site that the guy had a green shirt.

    He won't be tormenting any more creatures.

    That Bull running thing really makes me mad ...... i always say that i hope someone gets hurt doing it (preferably one of the organisers) not a tourist.
    Sad if that guy was irish and did die, wouldnt blame him for it. They should stop the cruelty to the bulls over there ...... makes my blood boil.

    It might as well have a bit of fun before being tortured to death and chopped up for dinners.

    Fair enough, he must have known the risks before he took part.

    Also fair enough, and you at least show some compassion for the person who died..

    But this SH1TE:

    He was participating in the torture of an animal, to be fair. Just because it's a custom doesn't make it not a crappy thing to do to an animal.

    There's nothing fair about it though.

    Good riddance, one less stupid bastard in the world to be cruel.

    I heard he was bull-dozed out of it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 336 ✭✭MelonieHead


    I did wonder why this story was all over Sky News this morning. Now I find out it's because it was a British fückwît who got gored by a bull.

    Imagine how guilty his mammy now feels after kicking her son out of the house and telling him to stop wasting his life, to "... go catch the bull by the horns and do something with yourself!"

    She probably never expected him to use his neck though!!

    'tard.

    If someone stood on train tracks watching a train coming for them thinking they could 'dodge' it; and then got creamed; everyone would laugh and say 'what an idiot'

    This lad stood in the way of a rampaging bull (while also participating in a cruel act against the animal) - and he got creamed... what an idiot!

    He probably expected the same as someone with brown hair or blonde or something, it's a complete myth that bulls hate the colour red, they just get enraged by things being waved around in front of them.

    The bull was over twice the size of yer man.
    Bit of a cowardly act.

    Should be up on charges, true.

    Why the fcuk would anyone want to do that? You would have to have a death wish to begin with imo..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,880 ✭✭✭Canis Lupus


    Learnt the hard way not to **** with bulls.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,132 ✭✭✭✭is_that_so


    I have seen this in action, although not in Pamplona, and it is madness. Typically they are run at 8 in the morning, in my example, a Sunday morning. Everyone is tanked up on beer and wine and are just asking for trouble. In Pamplona they have lot more bulls and big ones at that. Most smaller bull runs will have a lot of steers who are relatively harmless but whose horns are huge and some medium sized bulls.

    As to the cruelty of it well the animals start running for the nearest way out and will keep on going. They do get to the end of the run in one piece. The real risk is to spectators and how much they've had to drink and how close they think they can get to an animal that size.
