bull riders
Eight-second competitors
Bull riders are rodeo competitors who attempt to stay mounted on a bucking bull for eight seconds while holding a rope with one hand.
The sport is considered among the most dangerous in professional rodeo: Bull riders often compete through injuries that would sideline other athletes.
The term applies to both amateur and professional competitors in events like the Professional Bull Riders circuit.
