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.

Now I can’t get that psychedelic number song from Sesame Street out of my head thanks to Hairy‘s finger tattoo by Dava at English Rose in Peterborough, UK.

    It’s amazing that the psychedelic-pinball numbers song pops into my head more often then a lot of other songs. This isn’t the first time this has happened this month.

    I think I relate a lot of things to Sesame Street anyway since PBS was the only tv channel we had until late high school.

    Does anyone else remember an orange with a rubber-band mouth singing Carmen?

    Does he have a thumb? Is it labeled 10?

    Only on BME is the first question one that might need to be asked.

    You have eight fingers and two thumbs. Thumbs do not count as Fingers. Why are the 1,5 6 and 10 on the wrong fingers.
