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’m surprised no one has complained of the lack of mod… I’m just waiting.

    HOWEVER, I really like this picture and I agree with number 10:)

    The photo is good enough to make up for the lack of a spot lighted modification.

    Joshua, I’m just happy it’s not another random naked guy or girl with few to little mods. He’s clothed, he’s got tattoos, he’s happy looking, and he’s got a sweet ass beard. Good ’nuff for me 🙂

    I think I know the punchline to that knock knock joke.

    There’s also a 1/2″ septum piercing in this photo. You have to look really closely, though.

    Anyway, this guy is HOT! I’d like to make out with him.

    one of my favorite pictures of him, and honestly, he deserves to be here more than most of the posts i see. anyone who wants to talk shit about his lack (supposed) of mods has no idea of who he is and what he is to this community.
