RaoulDuke79 Posted February 17, 2019 Posted February 17, 2019 (edited) I'm flicking through channels before the Daytona 500 and was watching bull riding. Man these guys are nuts. I cant imagine they are making a ton of money compared to other sports. I remember the bull Bodacious...I think he busted Tuff Hedemans face twice. After the first time he promised his wife he'd never pick that bull again. Well, he broke his promise and got busted up a second time, if I remember correctly. The dude in the vide below just put together an 8 second ride. Edited February 17, 2019 by RaoulDuke79
BUFFALOKIE Posted February 17, 2019 Posted February 17, 2019 Primus made a song about Bodacious, lololol!?@?@?@@@!!!!!! That bull was jacked up on steroids. No doubt about it. I member the good ol days of ESPN.

I read he was famous, I had never heard of him. I do know he was not the first nor the last. I have done some stupid and reckless ***** in my life but wouldn't even think about that *****.

He also has some extreme flexibility so the dude is an athlete for sure. A ton of strong rubbery twisting flesh to throw cowboys off like toothpicks..
The Senator Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 (edited) I suppose bull riders are a bit twisted, as are bull fighters. Recreational skydivers, wingsuiters, bungee jumpers, lion tamers, sword swallowers (real sword swallowers, not the Jussie Smollett kind), people who swim with sharks, really anyone who goes beyond the rational to tempt fate has a slightly skewed psychological makeup, IMO. Nick Walenda, definitely twisted. Again, JMO. . Edited February 18, 2019 by The Senator 1
Mark80 Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 (edited) There is a cow mutation that makes super muscular cows. They are called "double-muscled cattle." Not sure if bodacious had it or not. Typically when they have it, the muscles are so big and cumbersome that they cannot move around very well. He obviously could. So maybe he had a less severe version of it or something.

CookieG Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 Living in the midwest, I went to a few of these events. The coolest was watching the one guy come into the arena riding a bison. Somehow he trained it to kneel on command. I went to school with 2 guys who rode bulls. Both grew up on ranches and they just said it was a way of life. They also said it could be just as dangerous herding, moving or corralling a bull as to ride it. Its just the nature of the size, strength and temperament of the beast. I went to one backyard rodeo where they were riding. Before the event, they were at the pens, looking over the bulls and picking the ones they hoped to ride. They weren't looking at the docile ones. Everyone wants the mean ones.
