Jag rördes till tårar. Vad är det med människor och deras blodtörstighet? Hur kan det vara modigt att vara okänslig och skada andra? Den här mannen är en hjälte och han har ett budskap till oss andra oavsett vad han gjort tidigare. Eller kanske just därför….

This incredible photo marks the end of Matador Torero Alvaro Munera’s career. He collapsed in remorse mid-fight when he realized he was having to prompt this otherwise gentle beast to fight. He went on to become an avid opponent of bullfights.

Torero Munera is quoted as saying of this moment: “And suddenly, I looked at the bull. He had this innocence that all animals have in their eyes, and he looked at me with this pleading. It was like a cry for justice, deep down inside of me. I describe it as being like a prayer – because if one confesses, it is hoped, that one is forgiven. I felt like the worst shit on earth.”
