Video obtained by The Post showed the man appear to go unconscious while still atop the rowdy bull after possibly striking his head. <\/p>\n
The daredevil\u2019s hat goes flying off his head as he\u2019s tossed around \u2014 limp arms flailing \u2014 like a ragdoll by the powerful bull, the clip shows. <\/p>\n
The bovine kicks up its back legs, bouncing the bull rider around until he\u2019s thrown off its back and slammed to the ground.<\/p>\n
However, the man\u2019s foot was still caught in a stirrup \u2014 putting him in a vulnerable position underneath the beast, according to the footage. <\/p>\n
Onlookers shouted in alarm as the rider was trampled and dragged across the dirt by the wild animal.<\/p>\n
Several organizers ran into the pen to try to help the man, as the bull continued to spin around and repeatedly kick him. <\/p>\n
Eventually, the rider was freed and carried off by a group of men. People were seen attending to him and waving fans in front of his face.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy buddy got hurt a little bad,\u201d fellow bull rider Gato told The Post. <\/p>\n
\u201cHe was hit pretty hard. He was doing his thing on the bull, but he got caught up in the spins, man, and he got hit on top, threw down, stepped on, got unconscious,\u201d Gato said. \u201cHope he\u2019s alright.\u201d<\/p>\n
Audience member Osvaldo Sanchez said that, though the event was shocking, there\u2019s always a risk of injury while bull riding.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere were a lot of young kids also obviously witnessed this, and they were also like worried about what has happened,\u201d Sanchez said. \u201cI already had experience of all of that, so I was really used to it. I didn\u2019t mind recording it, like really up close.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A wild video captured a bull rider being thrown from a feisty bovine and trampled in front of…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":900173,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5122],"tags":[5229,319898,5248,405,403,5226,5225,5228,5227,45746,5305,67,586,132,5230,68,1154,2969],"class_list":["post-900172","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-america","tag-bull","tag-metro","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-newyork","tag-newyorkcity","tag-ny","tag-nyc","tag-rodeo","tag-the-bronx","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-us-news","tag-usa"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116831890317534810","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900172","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=900172"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900172\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/900173"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=900172"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=900172"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=900172"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
