Seems To Be A Lot Of Bull

Runner gored in face running with the bulls at Pamplona Sad

Jul 12, 2026
New Daily

Bulls knocked bodies to the cobblestones, and stumbling runners during the annual festival.

A runner was gored in the face and many more were fortunate to not be seriously injured during a chaotic bull run at Spain’s San Fermin festival.

The six bulls and accompanying steers charged through crowds of thrill-seekers who packed the narrow street course in Pamplona.

The huge animals knocked down bodies to the cobblestones, and stumbling runners caused several pile-ups during the two-and-a-half-minute run from the pen to the bull ring where bullfighters will kill the bulls later in the day.

One runner was pierced by a horn in the face, while 12 more people needed medical treatment for an assortment of knocks, according to the University of Navarra Hospital.

A black bull broke away from the pack early in the 875-metre run and ploughed into a group of people, smacking one full in the side of the face with a horn. It was not clear if that was the moment of the goring.

Many runners appeared completely unaware when bulls were breathing down their necks and, instead of trying to gore them, just shoved them out of the way.

Saturday’s was the fifth morning run of the eight-day festival in northern Spain.

This year’s festival comes 100 years since the publication of Ernest Hemingway’s novel The Sun Also Rises, whose publication launched the San Fermin festival to international fame.

The last death at San Fermin’s bull runs occurred in 2009, but gorings and broken bones are common, partly due to the large number of novice bull runners and foreign tourists who join the experienced locals.

Me and mates ran naked down Eveleigh St in Redfern in the golden age of Abodom.
Running the gauntlet cost two mates copping VB bottles to the shoulder and back. Lucky we kept our shoes on as there was glass, rocks, cans, etc already on the street. I copped a chunk of glass in my sandshoe, but no cut. It was a wild moment, as we saw the Abos preparing and egging us to start our run calling us white ####, etc. Grin

Yeah…They banned bullfighting didn’t they? I hated it, watching the bull lose energy until it dropped.
I thought this bull run was banned too in recent years?
Poor bulls.
You know what else we thought were banned..animal testing for make up and bathroom products etc.
No they haven’t banned it, and daughter and I have been active online with petitions, donations and keeping up with Beagle rescue and closures of these evil factories.
Seeing what these evil b-stards do is so disturbing. Good people have gone to jail rescuing the dogs.
We have a list of products we avoid that have tested their products on the Beagles.
We have a list of products that are cruelty free.
Should send those cruel to animals and put them in front of the bull run!
That I would approve Angry

I'm afraid not.

Quote:

Yes, bullfights are still held in Spain, but the tradition is facing declining attendance and increasing opposition. Hundreds of events take place annually, primarily in regions like Madrid, Andalusia, Castilla-La Mancha, and during famous festivals like the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona.

Quote:

While bullfighting maintains deep cultural roots and enjoys legal protection as an intangible cultural asset, it remains highly controversial. Polls show a large majority of Spaniards oppose the practice, leading to falling ticket sales and reduced local government subsidies in many areas. However, it retains passionate support among conservative groups and fans who view it as an essential artistic.
