Only in Spain -- and specifically in Pamplona , where the townspeople gave any man the opportunity to risk his life every morning running in front of a herd of six Toro Bravos -- would my grandfather find what he truly needed . Ernest Hemingway described the bull-running Fiesta in his novel `` The Sun Also Rises '' His grandson John Hemingway says only in Pamplona can a man risk life running in front of six Toro Bravos . In this photo taken on March 19, 2015, people run during the San Fermin festival in Pamplona, northern Spain. Coming to Pamplona made me appreciate Ernest more as a man and as an artist . Here you must run until you 're either pushed aside , knocked down , gored or worse .
