The world-famous Running of the Bulls began on Saturday morning in Pamplona, Spain. The practice involves thrill-seekers running in front of a small group of bulls that have been let loose, on a course of a sectioned-off subset of a town's streets. The event runs over eight days and is broadcast live on two national television channels in Spain. An Australian man was one of six to be injured on the first run.
