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.

“The left hand of hell”

ReverendDecay has this “666″ tattoo spaced between his fingers, done by Umpa Lumpa at Crown Tattoo in Charlotte, NC. I think that balances out the scripture from earlier, right? Gotta take some good with your evil (note: deicide which one is good and which one is evil for yourself).

    I wonder how well the ink will take.

    I want X’s between the fingers on my right hand.

    Anybody know how well these things heal?

    I mean, how the ink holds over time?

    Is he missing a thumb or is it just folded under his hand? I can’t tell.

    The “deicide” typo made me laugh aloud, Shannon! Good one – even if it was unintentional.

    I think it’s a safe bet that, given the context and Shannon’s sense of humor, the deicide reference was not a typo.

    Um… does anyone else here know that they proved that 666 isn’t actually the devils/beasts number. That 666 is actually a translation error?

    I can’t remember off the top of my head what it actually is. But I remember seeing some bible analysis documentary (random thing for Uni) and they talked about poor translations, and that was like the only interesting fact of the whole 2 hour programme. Lol.
