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 don’t care that she’s smoking. I just don’t get why people think she’s so pretty? The piercings are neat, but her face is angled up and hidden enough that I can’t tell what she really looks like.
    Plus… photoshopped much?

    I’m not enjoying this at all.

    smoking anything isn’t cool, her makeup is very unflattering and it’s not a nice shot

    isn’t there anybody else out there who just doesn’t pollute their body like this?

    Geez. These comments recently are so cluttered. Who cares if she is smoking? To each their own. You don’t like it, go cry about it, no one wants some long, pointless argument.

    sigh, i think it’s silly when people complain about photoshop, modblog is about the persons mods not the photograph itself. Besides, I’ve seen loads of turd quality messy looking photographs on this blog…you’d think people would be happy to see a better shot. Only half of the photo is the actual snap, the rest is photoshop.

    and to the cancer people….no one said cancer was attractive, twas said that smoking is. Should everyone stop smoking, eating, boozing, suspending, peircing, playing sports etc just because yeh maybe one day it might have some turd side effects? If you stop doing everything in life that’s unhealthy or mildy dangerous you’ll most probably end up with quite a dull life.

    Does everyone who posts to complain that they’re all torn up by the inconsistencies in their dissonant feelings about the photo need to mention that she’s smoking yet she’s attractive and sexualised in the BME sense?

    Its interesting that people who browse these photos have fought to love piercings, tattoos and other choices, but (sometimes) they’ve been trained to hate smoking?

    This argument is entirely rooted in predjudice; the mistaken belief that smokers cannot be attractive to non-smokers. Ridiculous!

    Ugh. Plenty of things “pollute your body” not just smoking. You don’t want to “kiss an ashtray”, well maybe I don’t want to kiss a fucking McDonald’s grease vat. You’d think people on a body modification website would be more openminded about lifestyle choices…

    she is absolutely gorgeous.
    i think the picture is quite impressive
    i like how the black of her clothes, eyes, hat, hair, ect pops against the white of the background.
    and i think if she wants to smoke, weed or bogeys, she should be allowed to.
    and honestly i personally am getting sick of people saying over and over again how bad it is.

    omg, all you uptight people on a site supposedly trying to be a space where people aren’t constrained by “normal” society’s moralizing….

    she’s hot, who gives a *damn* what she’s smoking, and her piercings are cute on her. ’nuff said!

    also, how do all you negative nancies live your lives happily when you feel the need to police other people? People who feel they need to control, or even comment on the “wrongness” of other’s behavior is EXACTLY what is ruining this country, ie the Christian right telling people that they can’t do xyz (gay marriage, get an abortion, do stem cell research) ….

    With few exceptions, combustible matter is carcinogenic. Carcinogens(wait for it…) promote cancer.

    That girl is smoking(assuming that it’s not edited in photoshop, and she just happens to be making a silly face). Smoke is a result of combustion, and thus the snake eats it’s tail.

    hahaha #66, that was great.

    living causes cancer, in general.

    Although personally I think cigarettes are too harsh and smell unpleasant, I love the sensation of filling my lungs and fidgeting with something in my mouth (don’t go freudian on me here). There has to be an alternative somewhere out there to cigarettes that does just that (other than weed, of course…)? I remember on japanaese airlines a while back they supplied plastic sticks that gave out a minty flavour when you inhaled….
