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.

Taking a smoke break

Hey, sticking a smoke in your freshly removed implant hole that’s potentially compromized the structure of your skull may not be the greatest idea, but it’s probably safer than other things people do with cigarettes. Let alone just smoking! PS. Great facial scars!

Previously: smoking feet, smoking girls, smoking zombies, smoking assholes, and smoking labrets… And various smoke breaks during suspension, suspension with pizza and beer, and in the middle of bloodplay.

    That line tattoo really suits him, so well that I barely noticed it until I took a second look! Like Halo said, it makes him look quite handsome (not that he isn’t already, mind you!). Nice.
