27-year-old man killed at 2009 Pamplona bull feast

Risky running at Pamplona July 7-14. Daniel Jimeno Romero - a 27-year-old spanish guy - died after he was gored in the neck during the yearly running of the bulls which takes place in the city of Pamplona, Spain. As video recordings showed, the incident occured at short distance from the bullring entrance where along with the killed man also three other people were gored but they escaped with minor wounds. The previous death at Pamplona bull festival happened in 1995 when a 22 aged american had the same fate. Pamplona run has a 400 years history and 14 individuals have died since 1924. For me it is a bit hard to understand the pleasure of running with the bulls because it clearly looks like a life-threatening-job.

niste barbari - si mai spun de noi ca suntem tigani...ce placere poti sa ai sa fii alergat de un animal cu cu coarnele indreptate spre tine.Cu toate ca 14 morti din 1924 nu e asa mult- se moare mult mai mult din alte motive si mult mai repede
