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.

Another permanent injury tattoo: it may not hurt as much, but it bleeds forever… Done by Merski at Fashion Tattoo in Bucharest, Romania.

    They remind me of the scars Ken from Fist of the North Star has from having fingers poked in his chest.

    I’m extremely curious about why someone would get this. Probably just because looking like you got shot is somehow “badass”… but I’d love it if there were a more complex explanation.

    the reason someone would get such a tatto, is indeed the need for showing off the “badasstitude”… if you look closer, the rest of the tattoos are crude, and done in jail… trust me.

    also, i’m from bucharest, i know the studio, i’ve seen the clientele… cheers!
