EL CUARTO OSCURO. Entrevista a un torero corneado
-
0:08 - 0:11You are the most gored bullfighter in history.
-
0:13 - 0:19Indeed, I have been subjected to more than 1200 horns, 45 flips and 200 stompings.
-
0:19 - 0:26And don't forget that I hold the Guinness book of records for the number of stitches in a human being- 22720
-
0:26 - 0:30Lots of my gorings have been awarded by the Bullfighter's Union too.
-
0:30 - 0:36You, and pardon the joke, have had more gorings than Jesulin de Ubrique.
-
0:36 - 0:40Well, Jesulin de Ubrique has had alot more gorings by Belen Esteban.
-
0:43 - 0:51I don't want to seem morbid with this question, but you, because of a bad goring, don't have an eyelet.
-
0:51 - 0:55Well.. yes I do have one but it's plastic.
-
0:55 - 0:58And did the state give you compensation for that?
-
0:58 - 1:00Yeah, they gave me €30,000
-
1:00 - 1:05You don't have testicles either because of bad gorings do you? Were you given compensation for that too?
-
1:05 - 1:08Yeah, they gave me €10,000 for each one.
-
1:08 - 1:13Well, you can't complain too much, you must be loaded.
-
1:13 - 1:16Yeah, I'm well off but I don't do it for the money.
-
1:16 - 1:18Bullfighting comes from within.
-
1:18 - 1:24I still remember that afternoon when Islero, a 500 kilo bull, stripped me completely of my left testicle.
-
1:24 - 1:31I picked it up from the ground and said to myself 'Bullfighter, don't stitch it up, show it to the spectators'.
-
1:31 - 1:37And I offered it to the audience. And they cried 'Hurrah bullfighter! Hurrah your balls!'
-
1:41 - 1:45Does you're wife forgive you for being a bullfighter?
-
1:45 - 1:49Well, really she's never seen me fight, because when I start a performance
-
1:49 - 1:53she shuts herself in a church and prays that nothing will happen to me.
-
1:53 - 1:59Well that must mean that either God doesn't exist or he's against bullfighting!
-
2:01 - 2:05Have you never thought of leaving tauromachy?
-
2:05 - 2:08You're not doing too well as a bullfighter, you've never killed a bull in your life.
-
2:08 - 2:12Well, I was once at the point of killing one, he'd had more than 200 stabbings.
-
2:12 - 2:15And I knew for certain that the next one was going to be the last.
-
2:15 - 2:17But at the last moment, he shoved me and I went flying
-
2:17 - 2:21I beat the record for the greatest height a bullfighter had been thrown to.
-
2:21 - 2:25That day, I was fighting in Las Ventas and I ended up fighting in the Misericordia Square.
-
2:25 - 2:31You're obsessed with killing a bull aren't you? Once you even drugged a bull before the fight.
-
2:31 - 2:35It was with heroin. And that day I said 'I'm going to go the whole way'
