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.

I guess congratulations are in order?

Written by

Did my friend Emilio get married in Las Vegas? Now I really wish I’d made it! Anyway, if so congratulations, and if not, well, you got me! Left photo by Mute-One, right by Steve.

And normally I’d stay “what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas”, but since I’m the official leak for the APP, here’s my PS. Yeah, I know who you are even in that fancy getup.

    Have your cake and eat it kind of a dillema. What should today’s grooms do? Have a expensive reception or save for a home? I would choose the second without a doubt
