Young Matador 11, Slaughters 6 Bulls To Claim A Controversial Place In History

Tweet

Do you think that 11 year old is a little too young for a dangerous sport called Bull Fighting? If you are having a raised eyebrow here, let me tell you the chill down my spine when I read this. It has not only caught the world's attention but the animal rights activists as well. The article reveals that: A child matador has infuriated animal rights activists by killing six young bulls in a bid to have his name entered in the Guinness Book of Records. Michelito Lagravere, who is just 11, believes he should hold the world record for his controversial feat. The youngster, whose father is former French bullfighter Michel Lagravere, slaughtered the animals in a ring in Merida, Mexico. A judge gave the go-ahead for the child to fight six calves aged from one to two years after reviewing licences submitted by Mr Lagravere. Animal rights groups and child protection officials had pleaded with authorities to suspend the event. But now a video of the fight will be sent to Guinness for consideration for a world record - for the number of bulls killed and the age of the bullfighter. I am just amazed at how this is actually turning out but as they say life is just full of surprises. Isn't it?
