They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging.

Bad idea, or just impressive?

So, as most of you have noticed, I have been posting one “bad idea” feature a day this week. Truth be told though, a large portion of the world’s population would consider any body modification or body play act to be a “bad idea”. I suppose it’s all a matter of perspective.

For instance, most ModBlog readers are so accustomed to seeing suspensions that the idea of hanging from hooks through your skin, probably doesn’t seem like such a bad idea. However, ask a hundred random people if they thought that hanging from hooks in their skin was a bad idea, and I am sure the majority would quickly answer yes.

But what about a suspension without hooks, done purely for sexual reasons?

For a totally NSFW suspension picture, keep on keeping on.

scrotal

This amazing scrotal suspension was sent to us by XXX from Belfast, UK. Obviously, this is a high risk activity that could cause a range of immediate, as well as long term problems.  But is it a bad idea? Assuming XXX, has educated himself on the risk of doing such an activity, is this really any worse of an idea than lot’s of the more common suspension and body play rituals we feature here?

    Hi Folks, my name is XXX and those pics are of me. I’m on my own when I perform scrotal suspension and if you read my blog I can do it for up to 5 minutes at a time, though usually 2-3 minutes.

    Anyone think my head is taking the weight? Well check out my video if you don’t believe me.

    I weigh about 8 stone 12lb. Another trick I can do is to insert six fingers inside my foreskin.

    You’ll see me on the naturist beach at El Cotillo, Fuerteventura, from 1-10 October, 2010

    I would consider doing a movie video and await offers.
