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.

Monday Morning Pick-Me-Up


Think you know where this one’s going? Yeah, you’re probably right.

I’m not sure what the best part of the second photo is: The big guy lifting 80 lbs. with his ears, or the little guy seeming completely unfazed by the situation. “What? I’m hanging from some ears. Happens all the time. Beats riding a bike, am I right? Hey, you got an XBox over there?”

… and scene.

    Man, I heard one time that the human ear could only handle 15lbs of pressure before getting ripped off your head. I guess that was totally wrong!! And I love the face-palm 😛

    Okay, I might sound dumb, but I’ve never really learned much about stretching ears, but seriously… how does that not rip?
    I’m very impressed, and I’m not saying ANYTHING bad about it or whatever, but someone please explain to me how his ears are not being ripped.

    Nat – some people have really, really elastic skin, others dont!

    More than likely this guy has had his ears stretched at this gauge for several years.
