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.

Apparently I have Welshdar

You know, when I saw this photo, all I could think of was the Welsh Jackass-esque performance group Team Sanchez, so I was amused to find out that Carl’s work was all done in Swansea, Wales.

    Dirty Sanchez is such a cool show, I wonder why they changed the name for the US…

    leroy, you do know what a dirty sanchez is, right?! i imagine they changed the name because the american audience would be more faint-hearted about euphemisms like that.

    red*razors – Yeah I know what a dirty sanchez is… Maybe it’s just that the phrase isn’t well known over here, so people wouldn’t get offended, and they could get away with it.

    Totally, not many people here in the UK know what Dirty Sanchez actually means. Us dirty minded folk however… we know… we know.

    They changed the name for the US? Aww, I’m quite disappointed in them for that. Not a big Dirty Sanchez fan anyway, but I’ve lost a little bit of respect for them, somehow.

    And I’m joining the “looks like Corey Taylor” group. Definately a good thing =)

    Hmm, if you are Second Gen. Welsh Canadian and you are on Modblog does that still count as a Welsh person being on Modblog?

    Outmywindow – the peurile, infantile and…well…just downright pervy part of me wants to say this…So I’ll let it:

    “That’s not all we have in common…”

    Tangent – At work tonight, I met a small, cute, heavily-pierced girl who recognised my *n tattoo off ModBlog comments. She just reads, doesn’t post.

    If you’re here, say hello.
