How many inches are you expecting? (Graphic image)

I realize that thread title has gotten a lot of mileage. But this isn't snow related.

This pertains to the 11 inches that this matador took up his butt, from a bull's horn. It really is a terrible sport. Hopefully this fellow's story persuades his counterparts to give up the pursuit.





Shocking footage has emerged showing a matador being gored by a bull — and ending up with its horn up his backside.

Antonio Romero was horrifically gored during a bout with the furious beast in Mexico City on Monday.

The matador ended up with the bull’s horn some 11 inches up his rectum, causing “severe” injuries.

The stomach-churning clip shows Romero seemingly in control as he goads the animal with a red cloth, called a muleta. But something goes wrong as he tries to get the bull to pivot around him. The angry beast rears up, catching him on the arm and knocking him off balance...

Barbaric torturous activity that should be outlawed. What wrong with humans?

it's at least 12 years old. If the incident didn't end bull fighting, the picture's useless

If you Google matador Antonio Romero you will find a dozen or so media stories about this incident, which took place a few days ago. Some have video footage. In that video, he's wearing the same outfit. Looks like the same venue.

Perhaps you saw something similar a long time ago.
