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.
  • Tree Fiddy

    Here’s another contribution to Sadistica’s Hard Bonus Gallery.  As you may know, BME Hard subscribers are eligible to open their own gallery to share their photos, videos and stories.  This one in particular features a 350 play piercing session.


  • Picked up by the scruff of his neck

    Single point suspensions are inherently risky.  The risk factor increases when performing a single point nape suspension.  Simply due to its location, any error could result in permanent injury, so please don’t attempt this unless supervised by trained professionals.

    This was sent in by Piercing Pete from The Hanged Man Suspension Team.

  • Guess What?

    I’m not going to play any games this week with the guess what photo.  It comes from the BME Hard galleries, and it involves needles and nails.  The big question is, what exactly is being pierced and punctured?

    Think you know what it is?  Take a guess and read on to see if you’re right.

    I’ll be honest, I don’t expect too many right answers this time around, but if you did guess right, give yourself a pat on the back.  Then, head on over to Sadistica’s BME Gallery to see more of this kind of needle and nail play.


  • Into the fire

    The story behind this piece is simple, every day, all across the world, brave men and women face death head on to save the lives of strangers.  Every time one enters a burning building to save someone, they take the chance of never walking out again.  This isn’t a tattoo about death, it’s about being proud of those who put their lives on the line every day.

  • BMEtv – Anders

    Today’s BMEtv video takes up back up to the Gold Coast where the BME World Tour Team met up with Anders the Piercing Guy.  This video was originally set to go up on May 30th, but there were some problems with the video.  Since then, they’ve been corrected, and it’s ready to go.

    To check out the video, keep on reading!

    If you’ve missed any of the videos so far, you can check out the rest of them in the BME World Tour Video Gallery


  • Natural wonder

  • Hanging by a Moment

    It’s always fun to see someone really enjoy their first suspension.  When they abandon themselves into the moment.  The young lady below is Oompa, and she’s Kaptive8‘s newest member after suspending for her first time a couple of weeks ago.

  • Cherries Jubilee

    The Tribal Trading gang up in The Netherlands are quickly becoming the go-to people for microdermal projects.  Today’s piece by Bart Bastiaanse is reminiscent of Pac-Man’s favorite fruit.


  • Shhhhh…

    Can you keep a secret?  KaterPie almost spilled the beans, but her other half Tri-Stan stopped her in time.  However he couldn’t keep her away from the keyboard, and now the secret’s out.  These two lovebirds are going to be parents!

    In a few short months we’ll hopefully be seeing photos of the new addition to the family in the couples who met through BME gallery.
