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.

    lol your title is wrong, it’s “manGEUR d’introspection”.
    written like this it could mean “the mango guy of introspection” or “to have a lack of introspection” said by a drunk guy or a 3 years old girl who has a hair on her tongue.

    Well “manguer” doesn’t mean anything, the only thing that could be is a verb which has for origin the word “mango”, and that does not really make sense, even in french 😀
