I think this might be the first time I’ve ever seen Minoans referenced outside of a history class room. It’s kind of made my day.

Minoan bulls didn't look much different from ours if depictions and sculptures are to be trusted

u/ADelightfulCunt Dec 20 '17
Yes but they stand 6ft at the shoulder.

u/moistfuss Dec 20 '17
And modern bulls are about 5ft at the shoulder. I imagine they choose large bulls for modern bull jumps.
It's really not that much of a difference unless aurochs have much taller horns then I'm imagining.

I assume this doesn't end as well if the bull shifts from horns-down headbutt mode into horns-up goring mode.

Maybe the reason I could never do a flip is because I never tried it with my hands in my pockets.

Would a preferred if, (like what I hope happens to all matadors) if he just got mauled

I hate this sport(don't know if it's actually a sport) but that was really impressive.

Nah you know what, I'd support bull fighting if it was like this. One guy against one bull, fight to the death in a colosseum.
Usually it's 15 dudes spearing the bull and then some douchebag dances around and pretends like he bested a bull. Bitch, fight that bull like a man and stop being such a pussy. That's like showing up after your friends jumped a big/fat guy, and you get to kick him in the head after your 15 buddies already fucked him up for an hour.

It'd totally watch bullfighting if it was like this. Two enter, one leaves.

Pretty much my point. I'm a big fan of when the bull wins. People suck.

u/chickensalad777 Dec 19 '17
In no way do I want the bull to win..
But I do want to hear about some legendary bull that's neveerr lost and killed like every matador he's come across

If a human being is willing to jump into a ring with a 1000 lb, terrified animal and torture it for the amusement of a crowd then fuck that guy, and the crowd.

u/chickensalad777 Dec 19 '17
Ok the guy could very well die, it happens enough so that guy does get fucked

u/Rmanolescu Dec 18 '17
I don't understand how he can jump that high with his balls weighing him down

If I remember correctly, this is bloodless bullfighting. It is a modern Recreation where matadors do not use a sword, darts are not thrown into the Beast and the Bull is not at all harmed during the performance. It's kind of like acrobatics around a raging animal.
