“It is painful. Piercing is painful, it’s just like regular piercing,” Helvida said. “Every time it’s a new piercing and the wound heals really fast, it can heal in two weeks. I had hooks in my forehead and nobody can tell I had them.”
ZAGREB (Reuters) – On the rooftop of an empty building in Zagreb, Dino Helvida carefully pierces his client Kaitlin’s torso, legs and face before putting hooks through her skin.
Shortly after, he suspends her from a metallic frame, her heavily tattooed body dangling horizontally in the air.
Helvida, 27, is a professional piercer and body suspension expert from Bosnia Herzegovina, who for the last six years has been hanging up the bodies of those brave enough to partake in what is an extreme form of body piercing, sometimes for hours.
The process is carefully done, and in this case Helvida works with his girlfriend Zorana. It involves first piercing the skin with needles, putting through metallic hooks, which are then attached to a thin rope to lift the suspendee off the ground.
“You can do one hook or you can do 100. You have different hooks for different positions and different hooks for different body parts,” Helvida told Reuters.
“So everything is really calculated and it’s safe.” MORE
” Devotees say the practice gives them a huge sense of well-being, and Kaitlin did not complain of discomfort once.”
Ok, What the fucking fuck??? Seriously, stupid is as stupid does. I understand that some Native American tribes did things similar to this for ceremonial purposes, but these folks are just plain ignorant, and are most likely excellent examples of liberalism. (Art? BS, they’re doing it for attention, just like liberals everywhere)
If they find it so relaxing, then I dare them to let ME do the piercing, through the nipples, scrotum/labia, hoist away, and then let them tell us about how relaxing it feels and how much their sense of well being has increased.
As long as there’s no law against being a dumb ass, have at it.
And there are people like me who think suspending certain other people by hooks in their flesh would be fun.
But remember, I can’t drive without a seatbelt. Someone might get hurt.
I guess if ones only choices in life are sit around and watch TV or do something like this, it makes sense.
There’s a name for people like the. Shark Bait.
There’s a reason she’s from Bosnia Hurtz Agovina….
You can get a sense of well being, calm and refreshment while floating in a clear, clean swimming pool you dumb asses. It doesn’t take any time for wounds to heal.
When Clinton bombed them, what did he bomb them with – stupied?
Remember that female ‘artist’ who tied herself dangling in a tree and then couldn’t get out? Do that with hooks.
Buddy of mine got knocked the fcuk out by a 1lb bucktail on Lake vermillion. His hat was pinned to his head by two hooks on a treble.
He said it wasn’t much fun.
Clearly the person described with the tattoos has zero respect for her body. Typical brain dead liberal and attention whore combination. She thinks that she is so enlightened, but I have discernment and intelligence and view her as a misfit and an anti-social outcast.
People with class dismiss such weirdos.
I can almost see it. Almost. It’s the same brain chemistry as an endorphin or adrenaline rush, similar to a “chilihead” rush. And I enjoy my hot chilis, yes indeed. But does that mean that I want to stick hooks through my body and be hoisted in the air like a caught trout? F**k no!
