I can't believe I spent about 20 min in the ring with two different bulls (not at the same time). The first one (as shown) was easier going, the second one kept me on my toes. I watched my coworker spend about 10 min in the ring then another guy that was really entertaining to watch. He was good with the bulls and the crowd watching. My coworker got tagged once but only a glancing blow. The other guy got knocked down but he was a few sheets to the wind and having more fun than paying attention. So after seeing how it was done and a few beers (liquid courage) I stepped in. The moment you see that bull commit, its pucker time, and time to chose left or right... I chose well each time. If anyone said a Monkey can't fight a bull, then say Bullshit!!!  :sarcastic: :sarcastic: :sarcastic:

you crazy bastard. Riding the fj is one thing - we have control - er.. most of the time. Wild animals - they're unpredictable sods - ref recent documentary called black fish about the whale trainer getting munched. Good call on the left right thing, buy that lotto ticket you lucky bugger.

Outstanding!!  I first saw this and was thinking, "Hey I wonder if FJMonkey has seen this 'cuz he's down in Mexico right now..."  Then I watched it again...Way to soak up the culture my friend!  ...and way to dodge the bull!

Well, that was cool. I think I've gotten too old and slow for that! Though once we did run with the bulls in Lajes, in the Azores. It's a great way to focus your mind, especially when one of them goes "thud" into the plywood fence you just leapt over! Oh to be 25 and invincible again! :flag_of_truce:
