Bous a la Mar

This Spanish festival culminates in the Bous a la Mar. This is when bulls are released through the streets and directed towards down Marques de Campo, a temporary bullring which is missing a wall. The missing wall is replaced with a pier. The object is to taunt the bull enough to let him chase you then lead him off the pier. So when he runs at you jump off the pier into the Mediterranean Sea with the bull jumping in after you. Just hope he doesn’t land on your head ! There are people on hand to help the bull out of the water.
