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.

    You know, some people just like to smear blood on themselves. Some people even keep vials of blood to pour on themselves. The blood in the picture is not necessarily from a fresh cut on her head. I am definately NOT an expert, but the forehead blood doesn’t appear to be flowing in any kind of natural pattern, so that might be why. Definately don’t take my word for it though.

    blood looks very good, but im going to guess it was either fake, or yea, from her back or something, smeared nicely on her face.

    Also the dude with the latex glove on looks like he has a syringe in his hand so maybe he just scooped up some of her hook blood and gave her a bit of a spritz.

    This isn’t photoshopped. I drew about 30cc of her own blood and then painted her with it!
    She’s probably the most amazing friend I have and she likes blood:)
