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.

Music is on

Written by

Wyrd sends in this shot of himself in Budapest, Hugary, and I just have to warn him — if some thief tries to grab your iPod and run off with it, that’s really not going to be fun!

    Maybe in a few more years Wyrd can run an earbud through each nipple?

    I saw the post on my friends page from livejournal(http://syndicated.livejournal.com/bme_modblog), and didn’t see the image, so I thought it was going to be through his lobes. ^_^

    um i totally thought this guy was toting skin around on his headphones.
    i was really confused.
    i think because he has such a small area surrounding the nipple, at least in comparison.

    i feel dumb.

    i was going to complain about this post, then realized that it wasn’t a neat bead on his headphones but a nip.

    That’s so funny. And strangely it makes my nipples feel afraid of being ripped out.

    thats wicked, but i wonder if its an actual functioning headphone, cuz you have to think about this factor, how did he get either the headphones or the jack through that? haha

    I would hate to get the cord caught on something…

    Simplicity – I believe most iPod headpone jacks are constructed like this rather than at right angles to the chord/dog-legged. So it should slip through the tunnel like a jellied eel.

    If you catch my drift.

    I like how my first thought was: is that a CBR necklace? SWEET! Then I saw his nip and thought it was something fancy on the headphone cord until I connected the tunnel and the o-rings. 🙂
