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.

    How cute! I hope she sanitized those before putting them in her ears, but at least I have something new to wear to a party! 😛 (I’m a geek…)

    Looks like I’m going to be digging out my Lego sets! I knew they served a purpose!

    Elasticrock, do those stay in if you leave them in for say, a couple hours?

    Haha I had this idea ages ago to wear logo heads as plugs, but that was when i was that small, I’m about 26mm on each ear now, so I think I’ll need to invest in some Duplo’s.
