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.

As a point of trivia, The Dungeon Club (14 Kikar Kdumim, Old Jaffa) where this performance by Captain Howdy took place is the first Jewish S&M venue in Tel Aviv!

    While the music is kind of creepy, its kind of refreshing to see this, especially in Israel, I’m kind of proud actually. Ha ha.

    hi, i’m captain howdie, i came here from london to give you a body suspension and fakeerism show, i hang myself, i’m gonna skewer myself, i eat and swallow glass, i lie down on glass, i eat and spit fire, there are a few more things i do, that i can’t do in this country.

    the girl at the end:
    i couldn’t watch the whole show, even though i’m part of that scene and all that, it almost made me sick, theres nothing like that in this country, he was here twice, and this happens only once every few years.

    i apologise for my mistakes.
