This is the moment a man who was too distracted while filming a bull to notice the animal had got too close – and tossed him up in the air.

The accident took place in the Portuguese island of Terceira during a traditional event called “Touradas a corda”, in which a bull is allowed to roam the streets.

By-standers rushed to divert the bull’s attention while the injured man was given assistance.

The man suffered abdominal injuries which were not considered serious.
