Video Hat Tip: The New York Times, "Man Killed by Bull in Pamplona."
See also, Bloomberg, "Pamplona Bull Runner Gored to Death, 11 More Injured":
A 27-year-old Spanish man died after a fighting bull gored him in the neck at the Pamplona bull- running festival that was made famous by Ernest Hemingway and attracts thousands of foreigners each year.
The victim, Daniel Jimeno Romero from Alcala de Henares, a town near Madrid, was wounded in the neck and chest, the regional government of Navarra said in a statement on its Web site. Five of 11 people injured were released from the hospital. The others include a 61-year-old American man in intensive care, a 63-year-old American with less serious injuries, a 20-year-old Londoner with a thigh wound and a 24-year-old Argentine.

I always thought this was so crazy.
Crazy, and sad ...
Think of this as a textbook example of natural selection.
Hopefully, this example took place before the deceased had a chance to procreate, thus even further contaminating the global gene pool.
