In Pamplona, Spain it is tradition to run with the bulls during the San Fermin festival. The annual festival –which is held every year from July 6th to the 14th– had a very big turn out this year due to it falling on a weekend. In fact, the event hosted an astounding several thousand people to run alongside the bulls. Since the records began being kept in 1910, only 15 people died from the event making the 4 injuries this past weekend seem unsurprising. Hit the jump and check out the pics.
Via Huffington Post:
Every morning of the festival at 8 a.m., six bulls specifically bred for fighting race through the narrow, medieval streets of Pamplona accompanied by an equal number of large steers – each wearing a clanking cowbell – tasked with keeping the pack tight and galloping at an even pace.
