Tia Posted April 6, 2005 #1 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Adam Aries (right) and 'Atom M' spin while attached together by a metal beam and hooks through the skin of their backs during a Suspension Convention in Providence, Rhode Island. From tentative first-timers to well-practiced masters, more than a hundred aficionados celebrated their passion for body suspension at the three-day gathering, held in an old textile mill. / Reuters / News Limited picture Ouch, not exactly something I'd like to try.

henpeck69 Posted April 6, 2005 #4 Share Posted April 6, 2005 This is messed up. I can't imagine having a metal beam hooked through the skin of my back. Nope. No way. How can this be a fun pasttime? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fable Posted April 6, 2005 #5 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Wow, it seems like the skin would just be ripped off by the way they are hanging. Even though it looks highly painful looking at that picture, it concerns me that it would hurt even more after they are let down. It's kind of like when you get a bad burn or cut and it doesn't really begin hurting until a few hours later. Silly people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twpdyp Posted April 8, 2005 #9 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Different strokes I guess, even though I am not the squeemish type I am pretty grossed out by the thoughts of this bizarre practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
