In an industry full of super stars, Cody Webster somehow makes everything he does look ridiculously easy!

If you enjoy this even half as much as I do this will be worth watching

Very talented athletes. To have that awareness moving right up against a large aggressive animal in motion , knowing just where to step or hold on. Every rodeo has such brave "first responders" to help those riders.

Good video, Hoss.

I agree Sharon, watching these guys work never gets old for me and I know as well as anyone what would happen to the riders without them.

If yall need a shorter set of clips here it is. FYI the back flip at about 2:12 is probably one of the best in the history of freestyle bull fighting

Agree with this. Each ride can be different but these pro's study each bull. The talent to handle each bull is different from each rider. Bulls pair up different from each rider. Technique and exact physic matter. When you spend time and learn an animal like a horse you learn control. Being at the mercy of the draw after traveling Lord knows how many miles....man what a battle to win!

I never get tired of watching these guys and you are right Thomas. Few people would ever want to go 40 secs with a Mexican fighting bull let alone make a career of it.

Cool video. I have zero interest in trying that myself though. I give them plenty of room.

Smets I'd basically unparalleled in the world of bullfighting and probably as good a guy as I have ever met.

That one dude covered the other knocked out guy with his body when the bull came back. That dude must have hard time walking.

I used to love watching the pbr rodeo on Sunday when I had a TV

Bull fighting is awesome to watch.
I also like watching the running of bulls. Not sure if id do it in Spain on cobblestone roads. Running from cows and bulls is enough

Took the wife to a Rodeo at the Houston Astrodome when I was working down there.I told her then,,the toughest guys in that Arena are the Rodeo "clowns" ,and there is nothing clownish about them.True professionals and fearless.

If you think it is fun to watch, you should try it. It can be a challenge. This was at the Great Falls MT Winston Recro PRCA Rodeo in 1974. I graduated from Highschool in 1975.

That's a great picture Mark and if I was weaned by 1975 I was prolly still mad about it. I'd have loved it if everything was on tape back then. Chris Ledoux would have been makin runs at the finals and legends like Rex Dunn and Lesil Harris would have been young. Leon Coffee too.


One of my personal heros and a guy that saved everyone's bacon at the BROs is Jerry Norton and he is from up in your country.
