In pictures: The danger of Pamplona
The San Fermin festival in Pamplona, Spain, is a chance for local people and tourists to run with bulls - and for photographers to catch the moments of daredevil drama.

... and not always succeeding (AP)
On day three, eight were injured, five of them - two Spaniards, a North American and a Mexican - seriously
On day five, bulls gored an Englishman and a Canadian (AP)
Bullfighters have also taken punishment - here Antonio Barrera is gored as he is lifted into the air

For the bulls, the race is a last brief taste of freedom
