Young Juan Franco, from the legendary Franco family of Charro champions, practices leaping bareback from one horse to another in an event called the The Pass of Death during a family practice session in the Jalisco Highlands town of Capilla de Guadalupe, Mexico. The event involves riding bareback and then leaping from one horse to the bare back of a loose, unbroken horse without reins and ride it until it stops bucking.
