Spanish bullfighter Julio Aparicio is gored by a bull but expected to survive the injury - NYPOST.com

Looks like it hurts!


Warning.. there are NO blood and Guts in the photo, but it does appear to be very painful.

Bull Fighting is so barbaric, you kinda have to expect crap like that to happen.

Yeah -- I agree, and normally, it's no big deal, but for some reason, this photo caught me off guard -- maybe cause it is to the face -- not sure?

Well... there is no blood or guts in the photo. Just a very unusual looking, and painful looking picture.

I admit I expected to see something like the horn through the stomach or thigh or even the butt area...but wow, this was definitely a shock that I wasn't expecting!
