Bull running events are quite commonplace in Spain and those who take part obviously know the risks involved.
20-year-old Benjamin Miller from the US will probably rue the decision to go bull running during the Carnaval del Toro in Ciudad Rodrigo, Spain, for the rest of his life.
He was attacked by one of the bulls who gored him causing injuries to his back, thighs and sphincter.
