BME: Body Modification Ezine

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.

A better place to be

Written by

This photo really caught my eye. It looks like it could easily be a glossy advertisement for Jack Daniels in some fancy magazine. Diegosalomao (who submitted this) appears to be in a club that only the coolest folks go to and he’s sipping on some JD while looking super hot with his gorgeous sleeves. What was I saying again? Oh right, you’re welcome ladies (and some of you men).

He didn’t mention who did the tattoo work so we’re stuck just admiring the picture. Life is rough isn’t it?

    Hey folks. sorry for the mistake of not crediting the photo.
    The photographer is a friend, Pedro Lutti.
