Dozens of people were injured, but none killed, when the stands collapsed at a bullfighting ring in Colombia. Here's the video:

Said one of the women injured, "The organizers kept letting more people come, so it was a very strong fall."

The BBC reports:
Some 500 people were attending the event, part of an annual fiesta, when the accident happened.

The collapse of the stand was caught live on television. An investigation into what caused it is under way.

Two people dressed as clowns tried to distract the bull away from the fleeing crowds.

More than 80 people were taken to a local hospital.
