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.

Deep Chest Piercing Update


We last posted about these deep chest piercings by Roland at Visavajara in Freiburg, Germany, about a month ago when they were fresh, and here we have an update after four weeks of healing or so. The piercings definitely look a little angry around the edges, but this is not an easy procedure to heal. Nice to see he’s stuck with it, though, and I’m sure we’re all curious to see if they can heal to the point that they can be worn “permanently.” Another shot, after the jump.

    I find deep chest piercings like this very nice!

    I couldn’t imagine having to heal them though. Doing simple things like bending would probably hurt! I hope he is able to heal them.

    As for female deep chest piercings…i don’t think so, at least not THAT size. you’d destroy lots of vital stuff for babies and all. Imagine getting pregnant with things stuck through your boobs….
