Mess with the bull and get the horns!

Definitely not what I would consider a good time.

The DailyMail writes

A French bullfighter let the animal live after he got a horn up the backside while performing in his hometown.

Andy Younes, 20, was in the ring in Arles, equidistant from Marseille and Montpellier in the south of France, when the animal got after him.

Dramatic photographs captured the moment the young matador was caught by the bull, sending him tumbling to the ground.

And while the bull is usually killed at the end of a performance, if the animal shows exceptional skill they are pardoned and sent back to the ranch on which they were reared to live out their days.

Younes, who entered the bullring for the first time when he was just five years old, was performing at the Feria de Paques Easter festivities in Arles, southern France, on Sunday.

The Easter Feria marks the start of the French bullfighting season, but it didn’t get off to the best of starts for the hometown favourite.

Despite flopping, after being smashed to the ground by the caged bull, Younes was still carried on the shoulders of participants and was given a hero’s ovation at the end of the event.

It’s not the first time the Frenchman has felt the wrath of the animals, having been gored seriously in July.
