Oh, I dunno.... feet and knees together, legs bent to absorb shock,
head down.... I'd say he's made a perfect textbook jump and will
probably be ideally suited for landing. Looks like maybe he could
have gone for a little more distance on the eject itself, but....
(I assure you that should I ever find myself on top of a Brahma Bull,
I will be much less dignified and controlled...)
Great timing, good expressions. I like.
Although his ride was not so good, you are right ... this bailing
technique was pretty good!
Not all riders do so well...

This chap was lucky, the descending bull missed him by less than
15cm (6 inches).
Thanks, Clayton, for taking the time to look, and to comment.
Cheers!
