Smash Boy Report post Posted July 8, 2014 No, not the Lambo run The classic annual event in Spain....they just had it this weekend. Anybody ever do it or consider it? My friend just did it, and my dad did it too back in the day. I've been told it was the most terrified they've ever been in their lives! It's tempting as the rush will most certainly be there and the injury/casualty rate is pretty low. 826 of the longest meters of your life though, even if you'll be running in record pace.

gLA Report post Posted July 8, 2014 I'd be more concerned about the humans. I've seen people grab other people to use them as human shields. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortis Report post Posted July 8, 2014 You can run on a busy freeway the rush is there and the outcome can be pretty much the same. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, you can get across the freeway, but in LA you then get your ass beat down by the CHP. http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2014/07/03/...-of-10-freeway/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerplop Report post Posted July 8, 2014 It is a very dumb way to die. I dunno, seems pretty safe! What's the worst that could happen? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudiBull Report post Posted July 9, 2014 I dunno, seems pretty safe! What's the worst that could happen? It can always get worse... always. I have absolutely no desire to do this. Risk vs. reward doesn't seem like I would get much out of it. My cousin and I used to play chicken and run across the bullpen while being chased by 2,500# bulls when we were ten, so let's say it lost it's appeal as I aged. Warning, this last one is very graphic. The matador lived and was nicknamed "The Pirate". He was back fighting bulls with an eyepatch on five months after it happened.

BLK85 Report post Posted July 9, 2014 It is a very dumb way to die. So I was curious to see how many people have died on the running of the bulls. Not many surprisingly. 15 since 1922. How many have been seriously injured? I cant really find any stats. I would rather Sky Dive. People ask me why, really its pretty safe. 19 people died sky diving in 2012. Really not many, since there are hundreds of thousands of jumps a year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
