BME: Body Modification Ezine

A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

    It’s a nice text tattoo but unfortunately both the post title and placement are off by a couple of inches. If you’ve ever seen a chest X-ray the heart is pretty close to centered – it’s only louder on the left ’cause the left ventricle is stronger.
