Jumping from “the fountain of death” has become an increasingly popular tradition for foreigners (guiris) at San Fermin. Such a tradition can only be ascribed to the kind of collective locura (madness) at a festival like San Fermin. This crazy activity consists of climbing to the top of a tall fountain in one of Pamplona’s small plazas and free falling into the arms of cheering friends below. Be forewarned: many injuries have resulted.

In recent years the tradition has been censored, however people only turned to jumping from balconies.  It remains to be seen how this "tradition" will be accepted or controlled this year.  See videos and photos.
