Spaniards have celebrated plummeting Covid infection rates by risking their lives running with bulls instead.
The event today, in the small village of Tafalla in Navarra, Spain, comes after coronavirus restrictions were lifted.
On Thursday the 14-day cumulative number of Covid cases per 100,000 was 43.2.
In the bull run event, participants demonstrate bravado by attempting to dodge the bulls and get into the city centre.
Enrique Maya, Mayor of Pamplona and the Pamplona City Council had previously announced that the Running of the Bulls, and the larger San Fermín festival would not be held in 2021 because of coronavirus fears.
Running of the Bulls is part of the annual festival of San Fermín where six bulls are released into the cobbled streets of Pamplona, Spain.
The festival of San Fermín honours the patron saint of Pamplona.
