Amateur video captured the dramatic moment when the bull hurdled the inner fence during the event in eastern Venezuela.
The audience screamed as the bull vaulted towards them, only for it to land in the corridor separating the spectator seats from the bullring.
The rampaging animal gored one worker at the arena before managing to find its own way back into the ring.
The bullfight was part of events taking place at the annual cultural Sun Fair festival, held in the Andean city of Merida.
