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.

Through the Foot

Sorry I made the picture a little dark. I think I stepped on a few too many nails as a farmkid to enjoy this fetish personally, ha… Pretty intense. That said, if you think this is intense, check out the foot crucifixion in the “other” suspensions gallery on BME (sorry, it’s one of the last pages of the gallery so you have to be a member but if someone wants to link some of the pictures from it here that’s fine by me).

    Standing on a plug is pretty damn painful…believe me I speak from experience lol! Though I’m guessing that a nail through the foot is much worse, intense!

    This kind of stuff always makes me raise an eyebrow. I mean, it’s cool to have whatever kind of fetish you like but the risks of going through deep structures here is pretty significant. I can’t tell the exact anatomical placement of the needle but there’s some decent sized arteries in the foot that nicking could make a serious mess out of.

    The other thing about feet is the infection risk. Feet just get infected easily because shoes are notoriously wet and warm. Even with a clean technique for this activity, there are still little holes that lead to deep structures and will go into shoes after and run the risk of infection. Infection could get rolling pretty easily and impact the deep stuff before it got treated.

    Weird, I have stepped on many nails and have never felt a thing. Well, until I went to pull them out. Even with no remembered pain, I still cringe at that picture.
    I’m also barefoot all the time, so my feet are probably pretty touch. I’d need a jackhammer to get the needle through.
    Question: When people put needles through their feet and/or hands, do you push the needle in slow and steady or is it a really quick movement like “regular” piercings? I have no intentions of trying, I’m just curious.

    I have those memories of stepping on nails n sharp stones n other assorted bits too…but…I actually like this picture. I mean, I’ve been thinking about doing this myself but the stuff moddoctor put in prevented me from doing so. Seeing someone else has the balls to do what I don’t dare makes me smile 🙂

    This seems absolutely terrifying to me. Though I am curious about it. I wonder if the pain level is different at all depending on if you go top down or bottom up with the needle. I personally think that it would be less painful starting from the top of the foot, but the bottom of my feet are really sensitive.
