| Bilbao - 2014 - toro de Victorino Martin |
A espontaneo is when a person from the crowd suddenly jumps into the plaza during a bullfight and tries to give the bull a few passes.
Usually it is someone who had dreams of being a bullfighter but it never worked out for them and the temptation to get in the ring is still strong so they do.
Sometimes it doesn't go well and the person is gored or injured, other times they are arrested and fined.
Occasionally it works out and they are given the chance to continue with the bull for awhile longer.
