I have a lot of friends from the northern part of Guerrero (Tierra Caliente) around Cd. Altamirano. Their favorite sport is bull-riding. Essentially, the jaripeo is the same as the bull-riding in our rodeos, big Brahmas, one hand on a rope tie, although nobody ever has one of those rib-protecting vests. Guys seem to get killed doing this more often than they do in our events. When they do, the video becomes an instant hit. Latino video stores or "hispanic" sections of video stores often have anthology tapes of the best "jaripeos de muerte". in which people died. The covers advertise that rather explicitly and nothing is cut. It's pretty much the equivalent of showing Dale Earnheart's body being dragged out of the car and loaded in a hearse.



All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.
