I live my life 8-seconds at a time as an adrenaline junkie that goes event to event, matching up against some of the rankest bulls in the world in an 8-second battle for supremacy.
when a bull kicks his hind end one way and his front are center or the opposite (body twist)
Most of the higher tier or larger Associations and Organizations have a Group Health Coverage policy when you become a member.
A car accident. A lot of times it's instant impact, a fraction of a second of confusion, and immediate pain, with additional panic as you assess whether or not you're going to make it to the fence or be a victim of more. Adrenaline only prolongs the confusion stage...
Depends on the area, level, size of event, etc. Some events will pay like $250 to win while others pay $20,000 ...
In 2011, starting at semi-pro, the top earner made $26,000
At the second from top-level: the top earner earned $238,000
At the premiere level: the Professional Bull Riders (PBR), the top annual earnings in 2011 was over $460,000...and then the top-earner gets a $1,000,000 bonus (1.4 million total).
Thank you Mark for your great questions. I can only answer so far, but I would recommend you contact the PBR Media Relations Department and the Justin Sports Medicine Team for more detailed information if necessary.

Do you find it creepy when men want to go into gynecology?

Just how good of a radio host do you think Howard Stern is?

Can you describe the average Internet troll?
Hope it went well! I switched my email and forgot to reply to this; I did see it back in August and was thinking of you!
Yes, nerves play a part, but you have to harness that and turn it into focus. You have to want to do it and want to win. When you get nervous, just remind yourself that this is what you want to do, and think of the times you looked forward to it in anticipation. Fear is only a state of mind and pain is only fear leaving the body. Ride rank.
The PBR has a touring pro division and brings 5 up every 5 events. You have to earn your spot, and continue earning money to keep it.
As every bull riding event is technically a starting point, and then the touring pro level as a qualifier to the pro-level, this would be hard to guage.

Heck no. Respect is earned. There are dudes from the South who can't hack it. There are dudes from the North that rock it. Where you call home doesn't make who you are... the Bull doesn't care... put the Empire State on the Map!
