Bull runs, the sport where humans pit their agility against the raw power of charging bovines has proven to be a real-life game of ‘Duck-Duck-Goose’—only with much higher stakes and significantly fewer laughs! Yet, like moths to a flame, people still flock to the stands, ready to take on their horned adversaries.

In a recent viral video, we were treated to a heart-pounding display of human acrobatics as a young boy pirouetted and pirouetted some more, trying to outmaneuver a pair of oncoming bulls. It was like a Benny Hill sketch, only with significantly less slapstick and significantly more adrenaline.

Multiple instances of people getting severely injured or even losing their lives have emerged during these events, but that doesn’t seem to stop them. A viral video on X showed the unfortunate moment it caught a boy in the crossfire between multiple bulls during a bull run. The clip showed the boy running to the sides of the road in order to take cover and avoid the wrath of the bulls.

 

He managed to dodge one bull but was caught off-guard by another. The bull came from behind his back and smashed into him. The impact certainly was not a soft one, and it would have caused him some damage.

The boy immediately fell to the ground, but luckily for him, the bulls did not come back to cause some more damage. Truly nerve wrecking the entire incident. Netizens have always questioned the actions of people in such videos.
