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.

  • Once a Critter, Always a Critter!

    I really like this portrait of Critter and his son Talon!

    When I asked him his real name I was happily surprised (and swooned a little, I must admit) to receive this reply..

    “I’ve pretty much been known as ‘Critter’ ever since I was a wee lad. Mostly down to my love for reptiles (I’ve always had one with me at one time or another). So I figured might as well go and make it official!

    Two trips to the courthouse and $37.10 later, tada!! Instant way to upset one’s mother.“

    So, what’s your surname Critter.. Fritter?

    Aided by Mikey, Jon, Jason and Dave.. Tasha raises herself into a blissful six point knee suspension. There’s nothing quite like having your mates around you whilst suspending, trust me. It’s the best!

    We’ve discussed the risks of using poor quality/externally threaded jewellery before on ModBlog, but it seems a certain section of the community are simply too stubborn to heed the warnings.

    I was going to put one of my “trademark” songs over this tongue splitting video (no, it wouldn’t have been Slipknot, ugh), but thought I’d leave the dialogue in the hopes someone would translate it/enjoy it.

    We seem to be on a bit of a ritual and culture binge at the moment, so why not carry things on with this shot of Cynthia after she’d taken 142 needles (shared between her back and her stomach).

    I’m afraid I don’t have much information on this photo, other than the boys pledged allegiance to the edge and sealed the deal with a firm handshake from their father.
