The sport of bull riding is both thrilling to watch and dangerous to participate in since the rider must balance himself precariously on a charging bull. While many lives have been lost to the sport, its excitement continues to draw new fans. Staying on the bull for the required amount of time earns the rider points and may make a difference in the competition, but a recent incident has raised concerns that this isn’t always the safest choice.
Your Mom’s Home Episode 702 just included a clip that went popular on YouTube. While the rider in the video seems to be riding the bull, yet they still get fully mowed down by the beast at the end.
Bull riding gone very wrong

Ryan Sickler joined hosts Tom Segura and Christina Pazsitzky for the episode. Although having three famous comedians in one podcast was amusing in itself, the video left all three of them floored. The clip showed a large crowd assembled for a local bull riding event, and although the spectators seem enthusiastic, Segura couldn’t shake the impression that something was off. As soon as the metal chute was opened, the animal bolted into the arena. The bull had a stunning black-and-white polka-dot pattern, but it wouldn’t let the rider get comfortable. The rider was so thrown off balance that they slammed their head on the bull’s hump and passed out instantly.
Neither the audience, nor the bull rider, had any idea what was going to happen next while they were unconscious on the bull. The rider’s neck snapped as the bull repeatedly attempted to throw him off its back. Christina referred to the bull rider as a “rag doll,” as the rest of the podcast listeners stood shocked to see the graphic footage.
How did the fans react to this terrifying clip?
The bull riding community rushed into the comments area to share their thoughts on this terrifying incident, and the resulting YouTube video quickly went viral.
As most of the fans were shocked by this clip, one comment read, “dude…. that was f**kin GNARLY!!!!! i have never seen anyone ride a bull for that long let alone being knocked out within the first 30seconds and still riding…. like holy s*** dude some of those whips with his neck and back…. holy f**k…..” Continuing the sentiment, one viewer fully explained the incident, saying, “You can see him fall forward and hit the bulls head with his own head, right before his hands go. The dude was knocked cold.”

My stomach hurts. Cristina’s f**king reaction holy christ.”
