unloading a new young bull from a trailer, he was maybe 350lb at the time had a harness over his head just more so to guide him to pasture. Neighbor lets his Jack Russel terrier out the dog bolts right for the cow barking. Bull spooks and takes off but he had been trained about head harness so every time i pulled the rope he would turn right, fucking dog chases the bull in circles around me, I'm young and dad is screaming "hold on to the rope boy, don't let him go" as he and the neighbor try to catch a full zoomy mode jack Russel.
Before I know it the bull has made about 6 loops around me the 12 foot rope is now 2 feet long and the panicking bull is also 2 feet from me, I am wrapped up from the waist down TIGHTLY bull finally decides to make a break for it kicks me in the thigh ans I fall down then he drags my wrapped up ass about 50 yards over hard dirt, roots, and ruts feet first. I'm 90% sure I had a concussion but we didn't test for that had x'rays and had a cracked rib, fractured tail bone and had a "bruise" on my thigh that went from taint to knee and had a limp for like 2 months.
year and a half later was best ribeye's I ever had though.
