World's worst bullfighter returns to the arena after being gored in the neck... only to be gored in

[QUOTE]There’s a “gore me once, shame on me…” joke in here somewhere, but let’s hold the yuks until Spain’s worst (or unluckiest) bullfighter recovers from getting a horn through the neck for the second time in three months.
Saul Jimenez Fortes, a prominent matador, was gored Sunday at the Feria de San Isidro bullfighting festival in Salamanca, Spain, the horn going up through his chin and reaching the base of his skull, according to reports.
It was his first time back in the ring since May, when he was gored in the neck and lifted on the bull’s horn into his neck, a horrific injury that required several hours of surgery and several months of recuperation.
“It is a tremendous goring, but now we just wait,” spokesman Matthias Nemesio said of Fortes’ latest recovery, according to a translation from La Voz de Galicia, which is expected to take — again — a few months.[/QUOTE]

Pretty sure that's a good sign he should quit.
Damn that looks like it's gotta hurt! :jawdrop:
you would think you would practice up your skills of such dangerous sport before returning to the ring. Hope he's not thinking a "Third times a charm" after this one.
No sympathy for bullfighters, they deserve everything coming their way
Like cat-like animals, do bulls go for the throat as well?
hahahaha fucking idiot
How the hell does one stop the bleeding caused by that sorta injury
That's his head impaled at three major parts
Can't say he didn't ask for it.
good

Oh some guy is shitty towards bulls I'm glad he was shanked in the neck by it.

they kill bulls in a painful way for sport that's a bit more than just being shitty to bulls

I'm not glad. I just said good. Because it is good.
Experiencing consequences for a morally reprehensible action is good, and natural. Maybe he has learned his lesson and will give up now.

A) It's a barbaric sport.
B) What do you expect? A bullfighter is trying to kill the bull, the bull is going to fight back. It's like playing chicken with a train. I'm not going to be shocked when the inevitable happens. In this case though, torture of the "train" is also involved, so fuck sympathy too.

Bullfighting is fucking animal torture. I have no sympathy whatsoever for these people.
I hope he recovers but I also hope he [I]stops[/I]. He doesn't deserve to die but neither do the bulls.
I was just in spain and got to see a bullfight. Crazy stuff.

Why would you ever go and witness a bullfight?
When I was a kid, I thought bullfighting was just some guy running round dodging a bull.
And by kid, I mean 24.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;48480394]its not like its going to go away, its something to do
kinda like tourists who check out cockfights in asian countries
i am not endorsing either btw, they're both fucking terrible but i doubt they're going to stop doing it, its deeply ingrained into their respective cultures[/QUOTE]
But you gave them your money to see a show, that's essentially endorsing it.
If you went to a cock fight you're just as bad.
its really a dumb sport especially since the bulls are usually killed afterwards, still they are at the end of their natural lives when they are killed
Bullfights in Japan are fun, they don't have a matador and it's a literal bullfight. Theres no blood though, they just lock horns and kind of wrestle until one gives up.
Good. This doesn't happen often enough.
Ricky Gervais got flack for being against bullfighting and I really like his response.

Hope he suffers. Fuck him, and fuck any braindead spaniard that supports this.
I had a friend who was spanish and he explained it this way. These bullfighting bulls are well treated their entire lives, their owners take very good care of them, they always get the best feed and mate with the best cows and they aren't enclosed in tiny pens and they're basically the farmer's prized possession and when it's time, well, they're slaughtered and the meat is eaten, not wasted. Now i know the death is slower this way but again, if i were a bull, id rather be a show bull than some random farm bull that's not very well treated or cared for.

Well if farm bulls are mistreated that's an entirely different issue. One instance of animal abuse is not justified by another instance of animal abuse.

Well, here's what a typical factory farm looks like:

And here's a pic of the miura bull farm:

I don't know about you but the factory pictures are more 'torturous' (if we're going to use that word) to me than the 2nd pic. These show bulls are better treated than hundreds of millions of people.

Hey, it's the guy's passion, he should know the risks and the literal shit behind it so...
how do people find bullfighting entertaining

It's not just for sport. You eat the bull afterwards.
