A young man is caught between the bull's horns as he is tossed on July 8, 2007 in the old city streets of Pamplona. Thousands of "runners" test their skill, courage, and luck in the 900-meter course made famous by Ernest Hemingway's 1926 novel "The Sun Also Rises," first published in 1926. The man was thrown against a fence but not injured. These images by photographer Jim Hollander appear in a new book "<a href="index.php?page=&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thebullsofpamplona.com" target="_blank" target="_blank">Fiesta: How To Survive The Bulls Of Pamplona</a>."
