From the Davie Rodeo one of the 3200 ISO images with the 7D !! This rider was thrown off then the bull circle around and came back at him, unusual for these animals and probably chance.

First he got hit on the back as he was trying to get up and slammed into the ground, then hit a couple more times with the head to his back, then the bull walked over slowly with all four injuring his leg. Don't have confirmation but the word was a compound leg fracture !!

Btw I did find out and there is an insurance company offering ins for riders, just reading injuries they cover would make any sane person stay away !! ... no work on cost but might be subsidized partly in some way !!

This looks brutal, interesting that there is even an insurance.

They never do Judy, these guys are tough. He will be riding broken leg and all within three or four weeks ... just stick a protective cast and go !!!
