I grew up on a farm and it was my chore to bring the cows home from the pasture to be milked. We had a young bull I would play wrestle with, he would try to bunt me and I would deflect his head.. then as he grew bigger, more powerful and meaner i should have realized it was time to leave him alone but I thought I was getting pretty good at bull wrestling. Then one time he got smart and placed his hoof on my foot with his full weight -I couldn't budge out from under him . I managed to grab the ring in his nose and haul his head down to the ground so he was breathing dust then he backed off and I rolled under a barb wire fence case he decided to trample me into the ground. Since I wasn't able to walk very good my dad had to go bring the cows home and when the bull turned on him -maybe just to play wrestle he took it as a threat. He remarked 'that bull is getting too dangerous' so he kept the poor guy tied up in the barn after that.
You were either very brave or kinda foolish m'dear. It could have gone so WRONG. I'm really glad you're here Kg. But I guess seeing the Bull every day made its size not that noticeable. I mean if you hadn't seen it in two years you would not have done as you did. Was permanent damage done to your foot? How much was the bull's "FULL WEIGHT"? Did it hurt like he** or were you too scared to notice? Yikes! You dodged a bullet. Thank you for sharing that with us and Happy Tuesday! :)
I think bully was around 600 pounds. Might have fractured a bone in my foot, painful for a while but no permanent damage. I thought the funniest part was the bull turning on my dad thinking he had to flee for his life

600 lbs and you were not crippled for life? I think you have a Guardian Angel sweetie. I do. I think experiencing that with no permanent damage is definitely a kinda miracle. Thank you for your reply! :)
