No Bull is a live video released by AC/DC in November 1996, filmed on Super 16mm at Madrid's Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas on 10 July 1996 during the Ballbreaker World Tour. It was directed by David Mallet, produced by Rocky Oldham, mixed by Mike Fraser, and edited by David Gardener and Simon Hilton; production company was Serpent Films.

The show, involving a crane, a large model of "Rosie" and a finale with half a dozen blazing cannons, features 20 live tracks spanning their then 23-year career. It features four tracks from the Ballbreaker album, as well as other classic songs by the band.

On 8 September 2008 a director's cut edition entitled No Bull: The Director's Cut was released in the DVD and Blu-ray formats. This features the original concert as well as three new extra features.
