The moment a tourist was gored and left unconscious by a bull has been caught on camera in gruesome footage.<\/p>\n

The French bloke, who is thought to be in his 50s, was taking part in a controversial bullfight last month while he was on holiday in Albacete, Spain.<\/p>\n

He was trying to jump onto the animal\u2019s back when the bull got the better of him, and he suffered serious injuries in the resulting attack.<\/p>\n

It all happened during the Lietor patron saint festivities held between August 23 and August 26.<\/p>\n

The region is notorious for its links to the blood sport, and it has a bullfighting school and an arena that can seat 12,000 spectators to watch the gruesome \u201cfun\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Spectators are encouraged to test their bravery against bulls in the traditional \u201csport\u201d \u2013 although many people take a dim view of the whole thing and believe anyone who deliberately goads one of the animals gets what they deserve.<\/p>\n

In the footage from Albacete, the French chap is seen approaching the bull from behind when it wheels round and slams him against a barrier with its horns.<\/p>\n

As the bloke falls to the ground, the one-tonne bull gores and tramples him before tossing him into the air.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Others try to distract the beast with capes, but it keeps attacking the by-now unconscious man, repeatedly hurling him into the air with his horns.<\/p>\n

As he lands face-up on the ground, a gaping wound can be seen on his stomach, and it\u2019s oozing blood.<\/p>\n

The onslaught ends only when another man finally manages to attract the bull away with his cape.<\/p>\n

Spectators pulled the man to safety before he was rushed to hospital. Unsurprisingly, he was reported to be in a serious condition.<\/p>\n
