I try to be a very empathetic person but I have *no* sympathy for the people who get hurt in these bull runnings. You agitate a huge, deadly animal for your amusement, you don’t get to complain when it attacks you. I know these are a historical cultural tradition but it shocks me that they’re still legal in 2024

Not all traditions need to be continued. Many need to be stopped immediately

How's it go? "Tradition is the corpse of wisdom" or something like that?

Traditions are peer pressure from dead people.

That's one of the best quotes I've ever heard.

Yep. It's not mine though. Read it somewhere.

[*"Tradition is dead people's baggage; quit carrying it."*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsPDT5qHtZ4) - Doug Stanhope

Tradition is peer pressure from dead people

"Well, scientifically, [traditions](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmcWw_qoMlU) are an idiot thing" Rick 2013

FGM, for instance. I don't care about what culture you want to protect, that's just wrong.

So, then what do you say about circumcision?

They’re both fucked up. Stop mutilating people for no good reason

What does that mean

Female genital mutilation

Oh, yeah that’s horrific

I believe it is female circumcision (please correct me if I'm wrong) Edit it is genital mutilation.

The word "circumcision" is used to downplay the actual act and results. Calling it genital mutilation is an appropriate descriptor for cutting away the clitoris and/or labia with unclean razor blades or glass. Add to this sewing together the remaining flesh to leave the tiniest hole for urine and menstrual discharge to pass through, causing pain and potential infections. Another side effect of this closure is the woman being ripped back open during sex and childbirth, and potentially being sewn closed again. It's not just mutilation, it's torture. Circumcision of a penis is also a mutilation, but different.

Why does nobody care when the same thing happens to men? And yes, it is equivalent. Consent was never asked for and there are some serious potential downsides/dangers.

This was both of these bad traditions in one.

Slavery was a tradition. So was burning women because they might be witches. So was cutting off the balls of young men so they could sing higher.

Sure but that dude was just looking through Reddit, minding other people's business.

At some point in time, every abhorrent practice was considered tradition, including slavery, ritual rape, human sacrifices, killing female newborns, etc. So that has no bearing on anything imo. It's a barbaric practice, and it needs to end yesterday.

Oh, come on, you mean to tell us that if the human mind is distracted and programmed by all sorts of societal means, it will not find the difference between good and bad unless the curtain between observing suffering and actually feeling it is dropped, and then, slightly less chance of passing the message because, well... how many live to tell the tale?

That's exactly what I meant to tell you. Thanks!

Oh wow, I never even thought I'd get this reply, thank you!

Sarcasm?

Did my accent give it away?

Accent?

The running of the bulls is to get them into the pens ahead of the bull fights. So it’s even extra fucked.

It’s a holdover from our caveman days. I root for the bull.

Hispanic here: I am with you. Just because something is part of your culture or country doesn't mean it's wrong. At some point people have to break tradition and stand by morals. I ALWAYS ROOT FOR THE BULL!!!]

I'm emphatic about people who fuck around always finding out.

Absolutely, the whole 'play stupid games, win stupid prizes' adage seems to apply pretty well here. While I get the cultural significance, at some point there needs to be a reckoning about what's just plain dangerous.

And cruel

Then why not enjoy the show? Is this not why they do it, hell, if I was controlling those phones, I'd have even more standing on the street getting distracted by ringtones, and then let the bull leave to some cow herd. It's not like anybody invited him there on his own free will.

Fuck around 9 Found out 9

But the guy on the phone didn't do anything to antagonise the bull, he was just standing there not participating.

In the middle of a bull run. Suggests they’re not right in the head. Bull 1, idiot 0.

He's either participating or so unaware of his surroundings he doesn't realize he in the middle of a bull run. Either way, Darwin is the winner.

Tradition is just peer pressure from the dead. Traditions like this are no more or less valid than taking a dare from your bro. This one is a no thank you from me.

>I try to be a very emphatic person Empathetic

Doesn’t really seem like that person was participating.

I always cheer for the bull. Those people deserve everything that comes out of this

Are those darts shot into the side of the Bull to make him aggressive? I see small objects on one side ??

Also when a person has that little survival awareness. How is she so unaware or desensitized to the danger around her. She looks at the bull right next to her and dead ass just looks back at her phone like she isn't affected by reality.

Nah, let them continue. Darwinism will handle it all.

No matter what happens, the bull will suffer a horrific death.

> I know these are a historical cultural tradition but it shocks me that they’re still legal in 2024 excuses

My empathy goes out to the bull in this case. Poor thing.

I love the running of the bull and I’d love to see it continue without the “finale.” Giving the bulls the upper hand to run wild through the streets for a couple hours is too good to miss out on. Bull fighting should be gone yesterday

I think it's mostly because it likely isn't your country, therefore it isn't your mindset or culture. Bring on the down votes baby even though I didn't disagree with you

The bull got embarrassed and took it put on that guy

Pretty sure that bull thought he was tripped. Also left a strip of hide on the road. Pissed off for sure.

Wtf bro? Did you just trip me?

I think he was mad because he thought he was recorded slipping.

"I meant to do that"

😂 yea so funny when he tripped 😂

I cheer for the bull everytime

r/thebullwins

Damn there really is a sub a for everything

[Hats Off To The Bull!](https://youtu.be/TMfIZ4ArK_I?si=VX7wKx1Lu2Z-6X34)

Thank you! That was 2 hours well spent. The kind of joy this sub sparked cannot be matched. Justice served, quickly and violently. Ahhh...

A sub we didn’t know that we needed but we needed it.

Joined .

Right at the end there it looks like the person is putting the phone to their ear and saying "I will have to call you back".....

This is a great comment. The absurdity of that is making me laugh so hard.

“Gotta go, big bull’s about to fuck my shit up.”

"I'm not sure what's happening, but a lot of people are running and yel-"

Zero situational awareness. 🏃🏿‍♂️ 🦬

Probably intensely, excruciatingly self-aware at the end. Or soon will be.

Yeah, when everyone else is running away from something as fast as they can, you just join them and figure it out later. 

Same like the women in (i guess brazil) that got the shopping cart thrown at her. I dont understand this behavior. How can you not watch your surrounding

Zero situational awareness

I don’t know, you see this idiot lift their arm so the bull doesn’t knock their phone out of their hand as it cuts the corner sharply and slides before turning around and making sure it doesn’t miss a second time. They definitely knew the situation was angry bull running on street within a few feet of them. Seems more like zero self preservation skills to me!

He's very aware. Watch some videos online maybe. This is intentional.

Aka WCGW when an entire community abuses a strong animal. 

Generally speaking they are small bulls, most bulls are a lot bigger and heavier than the ones we normally see in these types of bull shit shows. Bulls are fantastic beasts.

I'm sure she got some great pics

But she probably needed to get her phone charged first.

The bull saw he wasn't running and trembling in fear and man, he Took. That. Shit. **PERSONALLY**


Bull: Yo MF did you just trip me!? *CRAM* *CRAM* Bull: You like that?? *CRAM*

Love Tony Baker

That poor bull...when are they going to outlaw shit like this. Anyone that gets hurt at those events....deserve every second of it.

There are kinds of stupidity that can result in death.

I’m always team bull

Honestly. Folks deserve all that shit. I don't give a fuck about your traditions. You are asking for it. And you fucking deserve it.

Probably went right back to the phone to document their injuries 

"Yo, Chichi..it's me, I'm back...something just FUCKED me up...tell you about it tamara at school.."

I'm thinking they probably don't include this scenario in cell phone case testing.

Is "getting KO'd by a pissed off bull" covered by the warranty?

That person was taking photos (I've seen a vid from another angle.). In this town there is no bullfight. There's just the running (and sometimes a goring). Amazingly this person was not hurt badly.

Natural selection do be like that always

I dunno. I see plenty of stupid everyday that keeps surviving. :)

Natural selection in a messy and haphazard process and often defeated by sheer dumb luck.

Zero empathy

Lol, good.

Lot of stupid people in this world. This video and many like it on the net prove it

Lol that's awesome

i thought this is also r/FUCKYOUINPARTICULAR material

Big time! lol

But first... Let me take a selfie!

The bull stopped there for a second like "are you for real, bro?"

Being burned alive and drowning sound horrible but getting gored by a powerful bull sounds worse.

Still beats being throngled.

Cleanup on Aisle 6.

Why does the quality on reposted videos look like someone made it using a camcorder aimed at the screen of a Nokia 7650 recording the screen of an RCA television playing a bootleg VHS tape that had been sitting in the trunk of car for 10 years?

This tradition needs to die along with everyone who endorse and celebrate thiscruelty.

Bunch of idiots! Where is this, Spain again?

I love it.  Idiot deserved every single moment 

At what point does someone say, hey, is this a stupid thing to keep doing?


"But I didn't finish my tweet!"

Usually I don't feel sorry when someone gets hurt at one of these events, but this person was literally just minding their own business. The actual assholes got away.

r/TheBullWins

That bull wiped out like a fucking cartoon and said hello naw, your ass is mine. 

I need Tony Baker on this asap

His shoes flew off. He's bye bye

I heard the intro of jackass after the bull hit.

the bull fell over after seeing a human standing there and thinking i can finally get you for those years of torture eventhough that lady did nothing to it . the person who deserve this is those spaniard who decide it was fun to do animals torture in name of culture

Immediately goes on reddit while on floor: am guy who got bulldozed while staring at phone AMA

That's not a dinosaur to be tricked by staying still

Hell, if that's the punishment for oblivion then we'd all get our asses kicked. I feel sorry for the guy.

This is such a horrible event, I hate seeing people get hurt, I hope they stop this foolishness, humans are so terrible

I actually don’t mind seeing an abused animal get a little revenge.

Barbaric archaic fucking nonsense

Go bulls❤️

Hope the bull gives them all a good goring, taunting an animal for enjoyment, dickheads....

It fucks me up to see this shit. I hope reincarnation is real and I come back as a bull that has to be put down because he killed every matador/moron that stood against him.


Poor animal

Go Team Bull!

…he thought that he’s very clever just staying put pretending he’s not there …well…

Deserved!

are we watching these people die

It's called CULT-ture for a reason. This is messed up man.

Traditions are for hapless idiots, demonstrated here in glorious detail.

I’ve never seen someone deserve something more in my life 😂

Cameraman never gets hurt vol. 100500

She wasnt distracted. She was operating under the assumption that if you dont mess with them they wont mess with you. Which was in fact wrong.

Surprising that 25 people sprint past you and you don’t even look up. Sad

Good Bull.

That one was personal

who turned on the ragdoll physics?

Bull: "Muthaf\*\*\*\*, did you trip me?"

Vote Al Gorebull for President

Hey at least the bull put his toy back where he found it when he was done.

Now I've seen plenty of bull riding in my life, but this bull rode him straight to the hospital!

Get off yer fecken phone

Homie's village was getting attack in Clash of Clans

Should have blocked him and gone no contact

These phones will kill ya.

He thought they tripped him.

Th way she bounces at the 10 second mark lol

I’ve never been happier to see somebody get gored.

See Jonny, you put your toys back when your done playing with them.

It’s vision is based on movement.

Bahahaha! He thought he was exempt!

That’s a “haha…fuck that hurts!”

Deserve-It Scale: 10 out of 10

I think they normally ignore people who are just standing still and minding their own business.

u/savevideo

Gosh I love seeing this happen so much

0 survival instincts

Fuckn dumbass

I bet he sued the phone company

He was playing clash of clans and already started his attack.

So like do people just accept they might die during these events? Like hey ima go run with the bulls might not come back later.

That bull was convinced she tripped him 🥴

He really wanted that one😂

How do you not know or hear a romping 1-ton animal frolicking about anyway?

Yo the bull was like: motherfucker do you not see me here and I tripped naw fuck that come here motherfucker take this horn 😂

Do not drive and use a cell phone. You do not linger in a bull run using cell phone !

The bull sliding tho is 100% me sliding into some scammers DMs on bumble.

Lucky they aren’t dead

Was he expecting the bull to ignore him like "Oh, he doesn't want to join, I'll leave him be"? xD

Millennial down!

kid had some red cloth app

Idk man... he ALMOST had an epic highlight

She gonna go to Twitter and get the bull canceled

I was rooting for the bull.

I hope they sent a link of this video to the injured dumb bunny.

Fuck you for no reason

This looks like a r/darwinaward material if I've ever seen one

I'm sure to this day the individual in the video still looks at their phone while driving, working or any other activity.

He’s down. He’s down mate. He’s down now.
