This bullfighter survived being gored in the throat during a contest in Madrid.
The half-ton bull caught the torero under his chin after he lost his footing and stumbled while executing a pass with his red cape at the Spanish capital's packed bullring.
The horn of the animal tore into the bullfighter's throat and emerged through his mouth, fracturing his mandible.
He was left
with the horn protruding from his mouth.
The 41-year-old struggled to his feet, staggered a few yards, spluttering blood and was then carried from the ring and into the medical ward.
He was in a critical condition and subsequently had to have two emergency operations to install an emergency tracheotomy and reconstruct his throat, jaw, tongue and roof of the mouth.
