A Spanish bullfighter is likely to suffer facial paralysis and lose the sight in one eye after a terrifying goring, the hospital treating him said Saturday.
Television images showed the moment when the bull's left horn ripped into Juan Jose Padilla's lower jaw to emerge beside his protruding eyeball as spectators in the northeastern city of Zaragoza screamed in horror.
Padilla is in a stable condition and recovering from a five-hour operation to repair his face, the statement from the Miguel Servet Hospital said.

Is that a bull with 6 spears in his back, with blood pouring down everywhere........ who caught the guy that did it?


I'm supposed to feel about the same as when the kids teasing the lion gets eaten, right?

Yea, no shit. The prick got what he deserved. Fuck bullfighting.
 
Thoughts:
  • The bullfighter's schnoz is fuckin huge
  • The pictures are actually kind of morbidly fascinating
  • Ouch
 
LiveLeak has some large, graphic pictures of this goring and the video of it happening.

I say good for the bulls for nearly winning one. This isn't a sport if you ask me, and I am far from being a tree hugger. If they want to make it fair they should attach knife blades to the tips of the bulls horns, let's give that bull a fighting chance. (It's going to get killed no matter what happens.)

I did google him and came across some great running of the bulls pictures, now that's the only thing they should do. Throw those bulls in the streets at random times throughout the year with unsuspecting people and film the resulting mayhem, now that would be a winning reality TV show!

I like the suggestion someone had in the other thread. Give the bullfighter 2 long knives, and let him go against the bull that way. The bull shouldn't be pre-weakened of course. I think that's a fair fight. The advantage of having sharpened blades is offset by the bull's mass, and speed.
 
Good for the bullfighter. Those are the risks.

I do not know why but when looking at that picture, i suddenly feel a strong urge for a game of pingpong. 😱

I agree. If you've ever seen one of these the bull has lost so much blood from the swords you can see it panting. (It's in shock from blood loss.) It really is disgraceful IMHO.
 
Somehow I don't feel sorry when a guy who kills animals for entertainment gets hurt.

Wonder if we could replace bullfighting with puppy/kittenfighting.
 
They purposely stab the bulls to induce pain, rage, death. :/

I can't feel sorry for someone who would do that to a living creature.

Interesting concept. Tie a mountain lion kitten to the back of a cat fighter, and let mom in the ring to retrieve her kid. Let the best creature win....

I was thinking more of a direct analog i.e. fancily dressed "fighters" theatrically stabbing puppies and kittens to death.
