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.

Iron Cross Surface Piercing

Pain-Freak sends in these shots taken at the second annual Chilean tattoo convention of a staple and surface bar weaving project in the shape of an iron cross… Other than typical concerns about motion in surface piercings, I think this could actually stay stable for some time.

    I love it, but is this going to heal well? Then again, people can heal anything.

    This may be a dumb question, but what is with the huge holes (that’s what it looks like to me) directly north and south of the cross in the right-hand pic?
