A 52-year-old man was hospitalised with a collapsed lung after being injured during a bull run.
Footage shows the man tripping and falling face-down as he is chased by one of the bulls on Friday (11 September) evening.
While other thrill-seekers manage to squeeze through a barrier, the fallen man is unable to get back on his feet in time.

The bull charges into him head-first, lifting him into the air several times before shoving him through the metal grilles.
The horror unfolded during this year’s Fiestas de la Virgen de la Zarza in Cañete, Spain.
Civil Guard officers and an emergency doctor were sent to the scene, while the injured man was airlifted by medical helicopter to a hospital in Cuenca.
Cañete mayor Montse Poyatos told local media that the accident happened when the man was running down a “fairly steep” slope at high speed.
He reached the bottom of the hill “unbalanced” and tripped as he entered the area behind the barrier.
The bull then charged at him and pushed him through the barrier.
According to Poyatos, his initial diagnosis was a pneumothorax, as reported by Need To Know.
As of Saturday (12 September), he remained in the ICU at Cuenca University Hospital in a stable condition.
It was not the only bull-related injury in Cuenca province that week.
On 8 September, a 38-year-old woman was injured by a bull during the bull runs in Villalba del Rey.
She was knocked to the ground several times and gored, suffering muscle tears in one leg but no damage to major organs.
