Ahoy; Incredible Spanish Bull Leapers (Recortadores)
Bull leaping dates back to Antiquity, when the bull was considered a sacred animal. Recortes (bull leaping) in Spain has been practised since at least the 18th century, and continues to grow in popularity as Spain moves away from bullfighting. I leave it to you to decide whether this is an acceptable alternative.
These men and women, wear no protection all they have is their ability to act, move and think quickly, these bulls all seem very health and the crowds are full in the stadiums.
The video goes for 9 min and its a lot of fun to watch, men vs full adult Bulls. One wrong move and i am very sure the bull will not be injured, but, I am sure it will be different story for the guy
