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.

    Paperclips work well too; they’re small, malleable, and readily available. Funny pics, I think I’m gonna submit some!

    Is it bad that I had the biggest reaction to the first guy’s eyebrows? Much cuter than the mustache, and the mustache is quite cute!
