Matador thrown in the air and then gored by bull

Warning: some pictures are a little graphic.

A matador has been gored by a 1,000lb bull during a festival in Colombia.

Julian Lopez, known as 'El Juli', was thrown in the air at the La Santamaria bullring on Sunday – and then gored in the back of his thigh.

El Pais reports he is currently recovering in hospital.

It's not the first time Lopez, 35, has been gored.

Here he is in 2010.

And in 2013...

And again in 2016 in Sevilla.

Ouch.
