Bullfighter makes New Years resolution: No more bullfighting
Video at the link. Yikes!
A man tossed in the air and gored repeatedly by a raging bull has lived to tell the tale from his hospital bed. Luis Cuadrado, a bullfighter who goes by the stage name of "El Kaliman", was stabbed by a bull in the face, neck, legs and abdomen during an annual bull festival in northern Colombia.
"El Kaliman"? Spanish for "Not Very Good Bullfighter"?
Local television captured the dramatic scene as the bull used its horns to repeatedly launch Cuadrado's body into the air
Wheeeeee!
Cuadrado, who is recovering in hospital, said he has been injured by bulls many times before. "I have been hit 55 times in the last four years," he told reporters.
...but I figured my luck would change.
But the latest attack has made Cuadrado rethink his choice of career. "I think I'll quit," he said.
...maybe take up driving nitroglycerin trucks or something.
