Spanish matador Israel Lancho is in critical condition after he was gored by a bull in Madrid on Wednesday. The disturbing video is below.



The Daily Mail reports that the 30-year-old Lancho is likely to be in the intensive care unit of a Madrid hospital for several days but is expected to survive. Lancho reportedly has an eight-inch wound in his abdominal area, but the bull's horn missed his heart. The incident took place at the San Isidro's fair in Las Ventas bullring.
