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.

    I actually think the look is sexy- lizard like. I wonder if it would be possible to amputate the nose and what the effects would be -how sleeping, talking, eating would be effected, the physiological changes and how you would deal with colds. It would bother me not to be able to smell- what if gas was in your house or if you smelled really bad but couldn’t tell- smell food, candles, incense, skunks?? And what about eskimo kisses??

    I am SO gullible. I read the nose article and believed it. I read the twins article and believed it until I read the “responses” – then I read the other articles and STILL believed them. SO SO GULLIBLE.

    Goddamn it. I totally fell for it when I read it a few days ago not realizing the date. But then i read the part of “if you enjoyed this you might enjoy these” section and I remembered them as being past April Fools. Fuck. I was totally hoping to check out that procedure and have been checking BME video. Sweet bar-hopping christ. You got me.

    I guess that next year there will be an article about a blonde amputating her brain (because it’s such an useless feature). And I guess that there will still be readers asking if it’s for real.

    How could it be real? Everybody knows quite well that a blonde has NO brain at all.

    Haha. Apart from the little hints like the name and the last line of the interview and, of course, the date, the thing which totally convinced me straight away that this was a joke was the fact that when asked why he started considering the mod, he mentioned Bert and Ernie as influences. I mean, I know they rock, but really…

    This has to be the most convincing online April Fool’s I’ve ever seen. BMEzine has the added confusingness of- this site is full of people doing crazy things; if someone’s cut their penis in half, why can’t someone else get their nose cut off, you know? heh…

    But seriously though, imagine if someone had actually done this. They’d talk so weirdly for the rest of their life!!

    Regardless if this is an april fools prank or not, this does remind me of the stories i’ve heard in school about the ancient egyptian nose cult. Apparently, there used to be a group of people who got the idea that all the evil within a person is contained within their noses. So they cut em off. Natually, they couldn’t have do with the evil nosed leaders of the day, so they started kidnapping political leaders and chopping off thier noses and people startedd paying attention- and killing all the noseless. The story goes that at this point, the cult decided that well, since they were aware of the evil in the nose, they decided it was best for thier lifespan to redirect the efforts to the afterlife. Ever see a wall of heiroglyphics or portraits, and wonder why all the little noses are chissled off? How could it be possiable for the arms and other extending parts of old statues to still be intact, but the nose is completely removed? It is even one of the theorys of why the Great Sphinx of Giza is noseless.

    Something to think about at least. “Its not my fault I killed millions, I have a nose!”

    Haha.. Long-standing “gotcha” for me, I guess.

    I didn’t realize that this was an April Fool’s joke until today, after reading the comments that referred to it from this year’s April Fool’s.

    What can I say? You constantly see people willingly amputate digits, hands, arms, legs, genitals, et cetera. This was very believable, aside from the images. I guess I attributed it to poor quality>.>
