Thousands running alongside bulls in Spain show how panicked crowds move.
One of the last things a pedestrian wants to see is a charging bull. Yet every July thousands of people voluntarily jam the narrow streets of Pamplona, Spain, to run alongside six agitated fighting bulls. Although the entire course is just half a mile, most runners do not complete it because of the dense crowd and the animals’ breakneck speed. These blistering bovines cover nearly 20 feet per second on average.
To gauge runners’ collective response to rampaging bulls, Parisi and his colleagues monitored two 2019 bull runs. They perched cameras along the famed Estafeta Street, where the course narrows like a funnel, and tracked runners’ and bulls’ movements through each recorded frame.
