00:00Most people have an instinct that screams one thing when a one-ton beast
00:05charges. Run. But for Josh O'Reilly, that instinct works in reverse.
00:18The moment a rider hits the dirt, the clock starts. While the world sees a
00:24rodeo clown, the riders see a human shield. It's a game of physics and raw
00:36nerves, taking the brunt so someone else doesn't have to.
00:49He's had broken legs, he's seen his foot facing the wrong way,
00:53but to Josh O'Reilly, that's just a weekend during show season.
01:09He traded the saddle for the sprint, because in his world, looking after your mates
01:14is worth every minor break and bruise.
01:24In a split second, he makes high-speed calculations as to where the rider is going
01:29to fall and best way to protect them.
01:41This is the life of Big Valley's professional bullfighter, Josh O'Reilly.
01:46And the show is just getting started.
01:49Good.
01:51Good.
