Hang on by the Eyelids

Bull riding is the most dangerous sport in rodeo. During the ride, cowboys must follow the rules while facing a test of nerves with a tough bull. The rider depends on bullfighters to distract the bull until he is safely out of its range. On this moment, one bullfighter is distracting the bull as the rider is being thrown off.
