Saw this in the newspaper and damn this takes body piercing to a whole new level .
I wonder if this will catch on to all those kids that pierce here in North America. This dude has the sickest of piercing I have ever seen.

that's from a festival in Korea or Vietnam or something of the like... from what I remember it's a sacrificial ceremony to make their gods give them good health by healing their wounds or something like that... I've seen MUCH worse than those things, objects big enough to require a person on each side of the pierce-ee to carry it around...
apparently they DO heal VERY rapidly though, sometimes even as fast as within a week... very strange stuff _________________ Quantum materiae materietur marmota monax si marmota monax materiam possit materiari? |

I wonder if they've ever thought objectively about it though... "My god likes me to poke gigantic holes through my cheek and tongue, just so he can show us what a spiffy healer he is!"
couldn't they just prick their fingers or something? =D _________________ Quantum materiae materietur marmota monax si marmota monax materiam possit materiari? |

I've seen way worse than that. Many times on trashy TV there've been idiots who put hooks through their backs and literally hung, suspended from the ceiling by these hooks. I've always wondered what possessed them to do it. _________________ Under communism, man exploits man. Under capitalism, it's just the opposite.

What is it you people think is so sick about it? Flesh heals. It's not like they are cutting off their limbs or anything. |

closeminded? intolerant?
im sorry if i find body suspension disturbing. i mean hey, its not everyday we get to see someone sticking hooks in their flesh and HANGNING FROM THE CELING. I for one, will not go out and tell these people to stop what they are doing, but-I will not condone it. I think its sick.
do not think a person is closeminded or intolerant when they do not bend over backwards to approve of activities they find unacceptable.
hah, its late. what a rant. sorry _________________ Nathan Online (doesnt work, if anyone knows of a good freeserver without a lot of banners, give me a yell.) |

It is pretty painless.
