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.

    It seems that every time we see Supa here, he’s come up with a suspension that is even more complex than the last.  As I’ve previously mentioned, Supa and the Kaptive8 Suspension Krew have been putting together “transformation” suspensions.  Using a fixed set of hook points, Supa moves from position to position, allowing his body to contort into every possible shape it can manage.  He’s becoming both a marionette and puppeteer.  Here’s his latest, using 6pts and moving through 15+ positions.

    Be sure to visit the Kaptive8 Suspension Krew’s BME Gallery to see just how Supa managed to go from an invisible chair suspension, to an inverted lotus.

    Alright so maybe IntoXiKate isn’t about to take a test to join the Men in Black.  However, given how often we see her without her clothes, it’s good to know she looks just as good wearing them.

    You’ll have to excuse Rach_Rach.  She just blue herself.

    You’ll have to keep on reading for the unblurred blue.

    If only Jackie had sent this in last week; it could have been posted on the 4th.  The bald eagle is one of those fascinating animals that could have gone extinct within our lifetime, had it not been through a lot of hard work by a lot of people.  It was still on the endangered list up until 1995, and has since moved up to “least concern” on the conservation scale.  If only the same could have been said for any of the other species that have gone extinct in the past 20 years.

    Starting hump day off with a fresh and fruity scar sent in by Pollux.  Hopefully we’ll see this one again as a follow-up.

    Dan Lake went the classical route for this bust, however for the life of me I can’t recall where this image is from.  Any ideas?

    I wasn’t going to post a second guess what today, but after cropping this photo I figured that some people might not be able to tell what it is.  So here we go, another round of Guess What?

    Read on to see if you guessed right.

    Honestly, I think this one is probably an easy one to guess, but since it’s been a while since we’ve seen a tattooed full subincision alongside a deep shaft piercing.

    Credit goes to Joeltron and Howie for the wide variety of modifications you’re seeing.

    Maybe this one will break the winning streak everyone seems to be on lately.

    Take a guess as to what you think it is, and then read on to see if you’re right.

    And the winner is…

    Balls!  Well, a transscrotal to be exact.  This 30mm badboy belongs to IAM: Jormungand and was put in by Poul Chin from Anatomorph in Malmö, Sweden.
