Pajarito Gets Some Payback!


The most awesome video I have ever seen is the infamous bear on a trampoline. Just click the link to see why. However, a close second recently was captured in Mexico City.

Pajarito in Spanish means little bird. If by little, you mean 1000 pounds of beef, then fine. The bird part is right on though as Pajarito can truly fly. As we all know, bullfights are pretty rough on the bull. The best a bull can hope for (as well as the audience) is a little mauling action on the matador. Come on - he deserves it! He wears that outfit and teases the bull with his red cape. The outcome is inevitable. The matador stabs the bull with a sword. The bull is then finished off by the banderilleros (kill sqaud). I'm no PETA fan, but this is a pretty bad tradition!

However, a new possible outcome emerged this week. Click this link to see the little bird fly!!! This bull gets so much air, it's amazing! Then the chaos begins as he proceeds to tear up the hapless spectators. Amazingly, only two major injuries occured, including a woman gored in the chest. Sadly, this stud had to be sent to the big pasture in the sky for his insolence. Pajarito sacraficed himself to obtain his revenge. I hope the other bulls were watching.

I read somewhere that the seats the bull jumped into were the high-price seats - akin to behind the dugout at a baseball game. That Pajarito has good taste in victims!

On a personal note, I've never seen that trampolining-bear movie. I was stupidly drinking water while watching, taking a morning break, when BOOM! Bear falls out of a tree onto a trampoline, catches a mega-bounce and lands face first on the ground. I had water coming out of my nose, and though painful, I couldn't stop laughing.
