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 embarassing

If I was going to make a list of everything wrong with this video, it would be a very long list…

    sooo, what happens with this open wound when the “piercer” touches the finger cot to the one he was finger banging Mary Rottencrotch with?

    to be 100% honest it could be a woman piercer… i guess.

    Wait The guy crys getting his tongue Pierced But He has His Nipple(s) Pierced.

    In the Video You can totally Hear Him Lock the Clamps. I thought that weren’t suppose to do that. So thats why the guy is probably crying like a Bitch.

    Ant… I KNOW!! Wtf is with people thinking they’re condoms.

    Have ANY of you tried putting a CONDOM on your FINGER? If it fits on your finger as well as your member… well.. you have a problem.

    Finger cots – usually used to protect or provide grip to fingertips, or for bandaging purposes. They’re NOT “midget condoms” for god’s sake.

    I have to agree that those calling him a wuss aren’t really justified in doing so. The poor guy was pierced with a drill bit for god’s sake. You’d all be screaming too. However, The fact that this guy is ARMY related is really scary. If IDIOTS like this guy is what is protecting our country, i’m relocating, pronto!

  19. nyssa Avatar

    So wait, he can sit through at least two tattoos, but piercing his tongue hurt so bad he wanted to scream? Wow, okay.

    At least I can sympathise with him on the taste of that sanitising stuff. I know from experience that it DOES taste pretty bad. I’ll give him that much. :\

    Not even going to comment on the “piercer”.

    Obviously, people with low pain tolerances should not be allowed to modify their bodies or serve their country.

    I’m a bit shocked by how many people are commenting on the guy’s “wussiness,” as opposed to the procedure itself. Especially those professional piercers… that’s just downright rude.

    He’s not a pussy; he made it through the procedure, and one that looks like it might be exceptionally painful at that. Just because YOUR tongue piercing didn’t hurt doesn’t mean his isn’t pure agony. Everyone is different; pain tolerances vary, bodies vary, and THAT’S not the reason to chastise the video.

    Chide it because it’s disgusting conditions, all parties involved are too ignorant to be modifying bodies, the client is treated like shit by his “friend,” the procedure is done entirely wrong, etc etc. The guy’s supposed “wussiness” is totally irrelevant.

  22. Sassie_L Avatar

    Apart from all of the horrible technical and contamination aspects I can’t get over the fact that not once does the piercer explain what they are doing or ask the client to breathe (I know, minor consideration considering all that is wrong, but still important IMO)

    And people, can we please stop calling guys that can’t handle piercings (good, bad or otherwise) FEMALES? (little girls, bitches, women etc) It’s a pet peev but a whiney guy IS A WHINEY GUY not a “woman”.

    I was in the army, and for those of you asking or commenting, no piercings are not allowed when in uniform and/or on a base/military instalation.

    They don’t strip you down and look or anything, but if they are spotted you can get in trouble. Also if he were to follow the military rules his piercings would never heal (because he would have to take them out whenever on base or in uniform)

    So aside from being a dolt, yes he is also breaking military rules.

    ok. i have only been piercing for two weeks now, with a full 2 year apprenticeship ahead of me. i have not done a tongue yet, but i am damn sure i could do better than this. plus, ice wouldnt do a damn bit of good, it would make it worse in fact. if he was on my bench, he would have probably been denied until he could chill out. but, did the “piercer” say anything about the situation???? no. not responsible on so many levels. im soooo glad i am getting a proper education!!!!

    IN THE USA IF YOU GO TO THE STORE LOOKING FOR “FINGER COTS” IT WILL SAY ON SOME BOXES FINGER “CONDOMS”.
    For one they look like condoms for two they have an identical purpose. “real” condom are used to keep sperm in, bacteria and viruses out. Well Finger “condoms” do the same. Ok for example If you cut your finger… blood stays in bacteria stays out. Hair dressers use them when they get cut.

    And I thought I was a pansy. I have 3 tongue piercings and all I said was “ouch”.

  29. TOB Avatar

    Um they do make “finger condoms” for the purpose of… well… fingering. They pass them out at my college at health fairs and shit. So yeah not for small dicks but for fingers and fingering.

  30. Frances Avatar

    I’ve seen people, who are scared shitless for needles, getting their tongue pierced and they didn’t even make a noise. So why is it unjustified to call him a wuss ? He still could ‘ve backed out if it hurt too much …

    But, maybe we don’t have to call him a wuss, maybe we just have to call him stupid for doing it this way.

    IT’s so very sad to hear so many females hear putting him down and the dudes are just whack, good 4 u u can take some pain I read about this group of pioneers that the Indians captured they tried evryt type of torture on thier leader but couldnt get a squekk from him so they ground him up into untracable peiceis and spread him through out the fields after that they went and got all the screams they wanted from all the women and children.

    It was funny enough that the piercer wore finger condoms instead of full gloves, but that dude seriously sounded like he was constipated tryin to shit a brick while the needle went through lmao.

    About the finger “condoms”.. i’m about 90% sure I’ve never, ever seen finger cots labeled as “finger condoms”, but then again I’m in canada so I guess it might be different.

    I really wasn’t sure if the people calling them condoms were serious about it being made for fingers if they actually thought they were condoms.
    However mentioned that there is such a thing as finger cots for “fingered” or for sexual purpose.. I’m gunna go out on a limb here and say its probably the exact same thing as a regular finger cot.. I have just never heard them called “finger condoms”.

    Seriously waht are all u peeple thinking .he did the exact right thing b voicing his mind in the situation.I would hope you would do the same thing .respect the pain if it’s not the right tieming it’s just not right.Th video shows to me that the shop(or room ) that he was in was not conductive to t he peircing.Just stop and then breathe in .2… the count of ten and then exhale slowly until u have no air left in your lungs and once again breath in concentate on your breath now is there where you want to be if so lets tweek some knobs …otherwise stand up and walk out…~_+

    Thank you for saying what you did in comment #146. As awful as this piercing was and all the problems that we can all find in the video there was a time when things were done substandardly and there will be a time in the future when the process we use today will be considered awful and barbaric.

    It is unfortunate that in places around the world things are still done in this manner, but all we can do as a modified community is try and educate and not belittle the piercer and the man who had the piercing done. I mean honestly, what good comes from comments saying that the guy getting the piercing done is a “pussy” or a making fun of him for yelling.
