Spain suspended the 12th bull fight festival after matadors got injured by bulls

Spain on 22 May 2014 suspended the 12th bull fight festival (called San Isidro festival in Spain) after matadors got injured by bulls. The fight was suspended after the bulls injured two matadors torero, David Mora and Antonio Nazare and tossed a third one, Jimenez Fortes, into the air.

It was for the first time that event had been suspended in 35 years.

The two bulls were Deslio, a 532-kilogram animal from the El Ventorrillo breeding ranch, and the 537-kilogram Feten of the Los Chospes ranch.

About San Isidro (Bull fighting) Festival

Every year around 15 May, the famed San Isidro (bull fighting) Festival are held in Madrid.

Approximately 2000 bullfights are held each year in Spain in a tradition that dates back 4000 years.

Bull fighting (also known as Corrida) is still permitted in a majority of Spanish regions. In 2013, it was granted the traditional cultural heritage status by the Spain’s Congress to protect it from further bans.

Absolute Disaster at Running of the Bulls

shows what happens when one guy falls at the running of the bulls, causing pandemonium and sixty injuries without a single fatality. There's a brutal hit at 1:32, as well.

He was running excitedly for his life with 1,200lb of raging bull on his tail. And then he tripped.

In that split second yesterday, this young thrill-seeker’s carnival adventure turned into a horror show that put him inches from death.

Before screaming crowds and live on TV, he was trampled, tossed and crushed, gored in the groin and impaled at one stage on the bull’s horn.

Horrifying: Three people were gored today on the bloodiest day of the famous Spanish Running of the Bulls festival so far this year

Menacing: The runner gets tossed in the air by an El Pilar fighting bull after getting gored on Estafeta street during the sixth running of the bull

A runner gets gored by a bull on Estafeta street during the sixth running of the bulls of the San Fermin festival in Pamplona July 12, 2013. Four runners were gored in a run that lasted four minutes and fifty seven seconds, according to local media. REUTERS/Susana Vera (SPAIN - Tags: ANIMALS SOCIETY)

Trapped: The man is caught between the horns of an El Pilar fighting bull after being gored

He spent 40 seconds at the mercy of the massive black beast before helpers managed to drag him to safety.

Incredibly, he survived. But yesterday the incident reignited controversy over this year’s Running of the Bulls festival in Pamplona, Spain, on what became its bloodiest day.

Three people were gored and at least six badly injured in the run, celebrated annually by participants from all over the world and universally condemned by campaigners against animal cruelty.

Dramatic footage of the 31-year-old Spaniard’s terrifying brush with death showed him losing his footing as he and others ran ahead of a single bull.

Desperate: The man tries to escape the bull as a steward gets out a stick to distract the angry animal
