Bullfighters may appear to do a lot of “clowning around,” but their role is of utmost importance to the contestants. They prevent riders from being injured by the feisty bulls when their 8-second is over. In many cases, these bullfighters have been responsible for saving a contestant’s life. For this reason, they must be in peak physical condition and mentally alert. Most bullfighters and clowns wear good athletic shoes or cleats along with colorful, loose fitting clothing to divert the beast's attention from the contestant.
