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.

Getting Shit Dunn III


We’ve been following Eric‘s intense thigh-and-more scarification from the beginning (here and here), and now we have yet another update! This time around, you’re looking at a piece that is just over eight months old (or 21,168,000 seconds…or 248 days…and so on) and it has raised just beautifully. It should come as no surprise, of course, that this was done by The Thunder From Down Under, Wayde Dunn while in scenic Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

    In awe of all the continuing positive comments.
    The least I can do it answer questions…

    Sathka, I still weigh the same. I bike to work and worked out my pouch.
    Gavtatu, regular daily activities keep me good, I wont lie, it was tight during the healing process.
    The unevenness is partially due to how my body healed; how the flesh varies over the span of the piece,
    tension and pressure from clothing and body movement. A tattoo would lack the three dimensional quality and not offer the subtleties of the flesh reparation process. I see the beauty in the irregularities.

    And Jordan, come on, I really wanted Phils head on my peeking peen.
    Screw this stuff about scars its SO 2000 and late.
    By the way, shout out to Brian at Pure for the 0g scalpeled apadravya.

    Why is this is this so beautiful? I was never very fond of the idea of scarification until I saw this.
    I, like many, felt that very similar achievements could be made through a tattoo. However, this design, with it’s intricacy and multi-faceted characteristics, absolutely have my vote in scarification vs. tattoo-work. It is amazing how the eye can be caught in so many directions and can focus in and out on certain aspects of the piece. It is amazing. The idea of the texture of this, visually, aesthetically, and physically, is absolutely breathtaking to behold.
    You, sir, have made the choice of a lifetime in having this done.
    And many, many compliments to Wayde Dunn for the amazing work he did here.

    Along with many props to Eric for being able to handle the healing process on this. I know I could not dare to fare so well in such an endeavor.
