THIS is the horrifying moment a matador is flung into the air and gored by a raging bull in Spain.
Tomás Angulo, 24, has been left fighting for his life after the horns of the beast ripped through his body and left him with 10-inch deep wounds.

Onlookers screamed in as they watched the bloody spectacle in Moralzarzal bullring in Madrid.
Harrowing footage shows the bull toss the fighter into the air with his horns before ploughing into the man as he lies bleeding on the floor.
His body is seen flying through the air like a rag doll before being savaged by the charging beast whose horns were smeared in blood.
Horrified matadors swarmed around the heaving mound of muscle and tried to distract him away from his prey.
Tomás collapsed helpless on the sand before another man pulled the bull away by his tail.
The 24-year-old had already been injured at the start of the fight on Saturday – but this second goring landed him in hospital.
The young man suffered three deep horn wounds on his left thigh with one wound hitting bone at 9.8 inches deep.
Another 7.9 inch wound severed through more than 2 inches of the femoral artery and a third tore 5.9 inches deep through several muscles.

Doctors say his condition is “very serious” after suffering extreme blood loss from the horror injuries.
The matador has also been slashed in the face and suffered multiple internal bleeds.
Tomás had been competing in the Copa Chenel, an international bullfighting contest.
In the qualifying rounds for the cup in May another matador suffered a sickening attack.
Horror footage shows the fighter being brutally gored in the groin as crowds scream in terror.
Albert Duran, 36, has been hospitalised in intensive care.
Dramatic footage captured the moment the bull reared its head upward and – launching him in the air.
Crowds recoiled in horror at ring in Valdemoro as the injured matador somehow staggered away from the charging animal.
Horrified onlookers were heard screaming as Duran was violently thrust upwards several times.
He was rushed to hospital, where surgeons performed emergency surgery on severe injuries to his testicles.
