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.

Skewering is a Bastard..

    This is how I did my DIY belly button when *I* was younger and more stupid. The push-twist-shove is a pretty intense experience… Definately an adrenaline rush.

    His expressions are really beautiful, there’s a lot of emotion there.

    (Note:
    I would *not* suggest my method to anyone, however, it did heal beautifully; quickly and without any infection. Almost three years later and it’s still perfect.)
