Man’s Struggle Before Being Gored By A Bull
The controversial and bloody sport of Spanish bull-fighting has both horrified animal rights advocates and entertained tourists with its almost romantic portrayal of a man and a beast’s dance to the death.
The cotillion of sorts can have different endings, one when the matador successfully thrusts his sword deep into the beast’s heart; two when he misses the heart and the bull lives; and three when the bull kills or injures the matador.
For 29 year-old matador Victor Barrio, his last dance happened on live television as he was fatally gored by Lorenzo the bull, in front of a horrified crowd.
