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.

OK, I hope this one finally fools people

  2. Alice White Avatar

    wow…first one that I’ve been completely unsure about. Even AFTER the click-through

    I figure it’s male genitalia, but I just can’t grasp how it’s all tangled up >_

    …I still am not entirely sure what that is, besides a veritable Rubik’s Cube of human genitalia. 😐

    i have no idea. can we get a shot of it without being tangled up? i’m throughly confused…

  5. Ernest Avatar

    i don’t know how much tangling is going on here.

    i’m sensing subincision and some other glans cutting with a whole bunch of stretched foreskin piercings. but honestly looking at my own penis… i’m not really sure.

    That looks like two different parts tangled together to me. A PA passed through a heavily pierced labia.

    There are never that hard to guess – by /default/, the answer always seems to be “penis”. 😛

    My first thought:”Ah, a ‘guess what’ post that isn’t genitals.”

    Silly me, I should know by now that it’s always someone’s bits.

  29. harobu Avatar

    Well, you got me.
    I figured it was some naughty parts, but I could never have guessed what!

    Saskatoon! I have no idea what’s going on there. Btw, the “o” in Bradshow is supposed to ba an “a”.

    Is there a second ‘guess what’? I have no clue what is going on there. There is more steel there than flesh, but that isn’t a problem!

  32. andyb Avatar

    that is a huge barbell and circular

  33. Ligo Avatar

    The hell? I can only barely figure it out even after clicking through. There’s way too much going on.

    (another) Kristin

    I think I see a split glans with a piercing behind the split, a stretched ampallang, a stretched foreskin piercing (the big old CBB) … and two piercings behind all that. A guiche maybe, and some kind of scrotal piercing?

  35. (another) Kristin Avatar

    Oh and all of that is AFTER the click through, of course!

    Looks like a Chinese puzzle where you have to get the rings/shapes apart…
    It’s definately a busy crotch.

  43. possessed Avatar

    Well, I know what it is, but can’t for the life of me figure out how it’s tangled up! And is ‘guess what’ ever /not/ genitals?

    Incidentally for those in the UK it will soon be illegal to view images such as these and those on BMEHard if section 6 of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill goes through.

    I call upon all UK peeps to sign the online petition against the criminalising of “extreme images” and visit Backlash for further information.

    The grey area of the bill would make it a punishable offence to view internet sites where extreme sexual images were present where there is harm (real or not) involved.

    Giles, does that mean we won’t be able to view modblog? or just if we click through on pictures like this it will be an offence?

  46. Giles Wallwork Avatar

    The wording of the act says that

    “(1) It is an offence for a person to be in possession of an extreme pornographic image.

    (6) An “extreme image” is an image of any of the following ~

    (a) an act which threatens or appears to threaten a person’s life,

    (b) an act which results in or appears to result (or be likely to result) in serious injury to a person’s anus, breasts or genitals”

    I recently spoke to a member of a lobbying group and showed them pictures from BME Hard and they said that without a doubt images contained here would be classified as extreme pornography and those viewing them could be arrested.

    This is a SERIOUS threat to certains areas of BME and I would like all BME and MODBLOG contributors (and the entire body modification community) to oppose this bill however they can.

  47. original_sly Avatar

    Well, bring it, how can we, of the international community, help to destroy that bill?

  48. Giles Wallwork Avatar

    Well there is an online petition that is going straight to 10 Downing Street but really it’s about raising awareness and the possible implications for sites like these should it get passed.

    Well that sucks. Because this isn’t like child porn or anything.. the people posting the pictures weren’t forced into anything.. it’s just posting pictures of something they enjoy.
