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.

Suspension Queen!

Written by

RooRaaah Crumbs

Jared sent in this wicked footage of Tracie (who seems mildly infatuated with her right boob and was formerly TracieHanna on IAM – More on ModBlog) completing a 27 hook, 18 transition suspension (!!) at the Chicago Tattoo Convention a week ago. Could it be a world record?

The video (and some photos by Luke – Myspace) are after the break – Loads more appearing in the Nu Ethix Suspensions gallery on BME soon!

    so i drop by the shop the other day and Oscar (tattooer) is looking at this entry and he goes “see, I appreciate the dedication, love to stare at the ink work on her… heck, I even enjoy a half-naked woman… but I cant understand why she’d do that to her beautiful nipple”

    we laughed our asses off. and then i attended my first walk-in on the desk 😀
    what a memorable day! haha
