BME: Body Modification Ezine

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.

    What’s that thing inside the banner? I’ve been looking at it for a while and can’t see any more than a poorly done Popeye arm.

    I’m either naive or blind… what is that in the middle? I think I have an idea, but I can’t be sure. I don’t think it’s the best tattoo I’ve ever seen in my whole life…
