Lawrence and Michael Lenahan were gored by the same bull at the same time during Thursday's bloody running of the bulls.
Last year Michael was diagnosed with testicular cancer, and he finished chemotherapy treatments last June. The experience convinced him to live life to the fullest, including running with the bulls.
Lawrence suffered an eight-inch gash in his backside, while Michael took a horn in his right leg, the horn entering on his shin and tearing through skin and tissue up to his knee. But despite early reports Michael was NOT the man featured in this now famous goring photo, it's actually a Norwegian man with a bull's horn all the way up his leg.
Next month the Lenahans were supposed to run in a LiveStrong event (you can see the yellow bracelet on Michael's wrist), but instead they'll walk. And maybe next year they'll try skydiving.
Because someone asked me: Since 1924 when records were kept there have only been 13 deaths, the last was an American in 1995.
