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.

Some men are so two faced!

I’m sorry we don’t have a better photo of this tattoo (yet), but it’s by that chap on the right – “Mickey the Potato Man”, The LaBoratory, Slidell, Louisiana.

    Maybe I’ve missed something somewhere along the lines..but what does DOT mean?
    I’ve seen it before, also on the back of the head.

    if it mean what i assume it means and it has to do with the same “DOT” then DOT is an acronym for Department of Transportation….. meaning a motorcycle helmet has been approved by the department of transportation. All motorcycle helmets have a “DOT” sticker on the back.

    I know a couple older bikers who have DOT tattooed on the back of their heads. It was their way of protesting helmet laws
