Poster Comment: The people involved in this sport are called recortadors. The object is not to kill the bull but to jump over him in various ways and avoid getting the horn(s). I don't like traditional bullfights where the bull almost always gets killed but I like the true skills shown in this "bull fight."

We are seeing the continuation of ancient games and Mediterranean traditions of great religious import. It is a violation of Natural Law to use this document in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Great, great stuff. Who knew? Thanks.

Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. Lord Acton He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic. The only difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits. Albert Einstein
Glad you enjoyed it.

This one's even better. Fast forward up to about the 3:25 mark, there is no action before that. Pretty good after that though.

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one. "Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters." ~ Ben Franklin "For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth, to know the worst, and to provide for it.” ~ Patrick Henry

This reminds me of the guy who went into a restaurant in MX,DF for dinner one evening. After placing his order he saw a wonderful looking plate being delivered to another table. Curious, he asked the waiter what it was. He was informed that those were the sauteed balls of one of the bulls that had been killed that afternoon. Customer told the waiter that he would be back the next evening to order'em. He did, but his plate had little, scrawny balls on it. What's up, he asked, this looks pathetic! Waiter - my friend, sometimes the bull wins.

that's incredible ! do you have any footage of when it didn't work out ? ahaha
Yeah. This one broke one of his horns on the little boxes that the recortadors hide behind and the pain made him crazy. He had to be put down.

That's why I don't like it and won't watch it.

The only kind of "Bull" fighting I like is the Bull that comes out of Wash. DC.
Yeah, it is good to fight the bs that comes out of the District of Criminals.

"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”—Samuel Adams

Yeah, this is much, much better. I never saw much sport in the traditional method. Seemed sadistic.
