This is not about bullfight.

I'm not into bullfighting, but I think this video is a great example on how we can forget about ourselves and give our best for another person...

Exemple for some mothers and fathers...My time zone, and my country in the world!

São a unica a coisa com a qual tenho fascinio pelas touradas! Os forcados sao um exemplo de coragem, de corpo a corpo, sem armas nem cavalinhos para dar a fuga!

100% de acordo Ricardo.

Mostra bem que a força não está só nos animais.

By zetorres, # 22. April 2008, 17:02:22

By zetorres, # 22. April 2008, 17:20:50

Its nice they helped him, but in my opinion the situation could have been averted all together, no Bull Fights at all then everyone, including the Bull is happy.

Nie to see you dont like it either zetorres, now if every Portuguese man and woman were like you then hopefully Bull Fighting will be a thing of the past.

I could be wrong but it looks like that Bull's horns were capped, thats really unfair poor thing.

As I have saied this post it´s about "Fellowship"

But other situations we don't see this "Fellowship"

Thanks Mark:up:

Note:
Turist from all over the world come here to see bulfights, thet are promoting this.

The men in this movie ton't be bad to the bull.

This is caled "Pega"

By zetorres, # 22. April 2008, 18:48:04

@Flying Red Fox - "[...]it looks like that Bull's horns were capped, thats really unfair poor thing." At least in Portugal we neither bleed the bulls before the bullfighting like ist's done in Spain nor kill them in the arena.

@Zé - Great video, I like to see the forcados very much. It's a nice thing and it doesn't hurt the animal.

Indeed Miguel!

By zetorres, # 28. April 2008, 11:25:08

Obrigada pelo comentário lá no meu Primeiro Post. Aquele texto é muito lindo, realmente.
E sobre esse video.. Olha, é um exemplo de amizade mesmo. Muito tocante, parece cena de filme.

By thecarrot, # 30. April 2008, 01:41:30

Obrigado também pela sua visita à minha página do Opera. Sejas benvinda.

By zetorres, # 30. April 2008, 07:43:27

yes

By ombolan, # 7. May 2008, 11:44:30

This is horrifying

and heartwarming all at the same time. Do you know what the outcome was, for the men as well as the bulls? I applaud your efforts to enlighten potential tourists: I will certainly never attend a bullfight, in Portugal or anywhere else.

By FrogBoots, # 8. May 2008, 15:37:32

They are brave men! After this, they went in a hospital with some broken bones, and next month they will be again in arena...

crazy men...

By zetorres, # 8. May 2008, 15:55:03

Ahhh...good to know they survived with their craziness intact!

By FrogBoots, # 8. May 2008, 16:14:16

i don't care.
it's theirs job

By ombolan, # 8. May 2008, 16:15:24

They are ready for more craziness...

By zetorres, # 8. May 2008, 18:36:11

And they aren't payed. The men in the horses are very well payed but this guys no. Pure courage.

By Zé Vasconcelos, # 8. May 2008, 19:42:41

Indeed Miguel! Thanks.

Isn'y theirs job, only a hobby...

By zetorres, # 8. May 2008, 19:50:13

From one side - I consider them stupid for putting themselves in such event - I'm against this kind of activities

. From the other side, despite of "starting with the bull", when danger comes they stand side by side together taking the responsibility of their acts -

. To sum up - they got what they've came for.

By yasiula, # 20. May 2008, 19:52:38

@Yasiula- Man you needed to have Latin blood to enjoy and understand why Portuguese do this. We Latins are crazy.

It's all about people's culture and tradition.

By Zé Vasconcelos, # 20. May 2008, 20:46:07

Amazing fellowship. But they wewre kind of asking for it...

By Ukwildlife, # 26. May 2008, 10:30:14

Yes, you are right!

By zetorres, # 26. May 2008, 10:41:38

I know that this post isn't about bullfight, but i like it. Especially the part of Forcados (the brave men in the clip).

Take a look at my video:
