An award-winning bullfighter has been gored to death live in front of hundreds of terrified spectators - the first matador fatality in Spain this century.
Segovia bullfighter Víctor Barrio, 29, suffered a mortal blow during a tournament also screened on television, in the town of Teruel in Aragon, Eastern Spain.
The performer was rushed to hospital unconscious but doctors were unable to save his life.
He rolled to the ground in a painful somersault after the 87 stone beast caught him while he tried to attract the animal with a 'muletazo' manoeuvre, reports La Razon.es.
The third bull of the day snagged him in the side, rammed him to the ground and gored him the chest.
The Los Maños bred bull, named Lorenzo, had reportedly been struggling but caught the showman off guard.
The matador met his match at the festival called Feria del Ángel, reports El Mundo.
The horrific goring was shown live on TV, and shocked viewers have uploaded footage of the scene on social media.
In his final tweet on July 4, Barrio posted a picture of him in training, writing: 'With the mind set on Teruel.'

This is the horrifying moment a matador receives a fatal wound to the chest after being gored by a bull.

Victor Barrio, 29, was rushed unconscious to a field hospital by the bullring in Teruel, Spain, but died from his injuries.

The bullfight, part of the city’s annual festival called the Feria del Angel, was suspended as a result of the tragedy.

The 83 stone animal that killed him was called Lorenzo.

His death was the first of a matador this century in Spain in a bullring.

Two matadors died in the eighties, including the famous Francisco Rivera.

Two bandilleros, who plant little flags with barbed points in the top of the bull’s shoulders, were killed in the ring in 1992.

Barrio, who was born in Segovia an hour’s drive north west of Madrid, worked on a golf course before pursuing his dream of becoming a bullfighter.

He became a fully qualified bullfighter in 2012.

Fans of the blood sport took to Twitter on Saturday to offer their condolences to his family.

One wrote: “I cannot believe it. Victor Barrio has died after being gored in Teruel.

"My sincerest condolences to his family. He was a great person. Rest in peace.”

But Spaniard Isabel Garcia wrote on the matador’s Facebook: “It’s a terrible shame that such a young person has lost his life but if you put yourself in front of a bull to massacre it, the animal will defend itself.”((no shit... ))
