This is the moment a matador was tossed in the air and trampled during a bullfight - five years after he lost an eye when he was gored by another beast.
One-eyed matador Juan Jose Padilla was picked up by the charging bull before being dashed to the ground at Las Ventas bullring in Madrid, Spain.
Dramatic pictures show the 43-year-old, dubbed 'The Pirate' because of the patch he wears, taunting the 1,400lb animal before it rams into his chest.

Moments later, Padilla somersaulted in the air before the bull tried to gore the back of his legs with its horns as the shocked audience watched on.
Incredibly, the matador escaped the terrifying ordeal with only minor injuries though blood was seen on his face.
