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.

Pierced Drinking Appliance?

Written by

Check out this wild surface weave by Crea from S&M Tattoo in Sarasota, Florida, done for the 2006 Tampa TattooFest. I’m not going to tell you that doing a ton of surface piercings and then drinking beer through them is a good idea, but it sure was a funny set of pictures to brighten my day!

    Is that the same dude in the ‘eyelid piercing’ photo from WAAAAAY back (before the recent spate of them)?

    I don’t see an eyelid piercing, so I would guess no. Lovely tattoo on his stomach though.

    does his tattoo say “fuck off” or “suck off”? that’s an honest question, by the way.

    I believe it says “Cluck off.”

    That’s an honest answer, by the way.

    I swear I know this guy. We used to hang out at “Taylor’s house” and he lived down the street from them in Wichita, Ks. His name was Nathan. Don’t remember that last name. If anyone knows him, pass on his name!
