Hot Cross Fun

Posted on by

Dave K, the bloke wielding the hammer, sent me this awesome crucifixion footage (which contains flashing lights and was shot by Drew) of Rev. Shawn Lower of the band OnlyFlesh (amongst many other things) being well and truly nailed!

I can probably speak for everyone when I say the answer to his question at the end is, YES!

There’s no spliced frames in this one, so don’t waste your time looking.

  13. Glynis – Yeah, I did the same when I was about six or seven, I jumped off a wall onto the beach and there was a plank of wood with a rusty nail sticking out, it went straight through my little tiny foot.

    I’ve still got the scar somewhere, probably on my foot, heh.

  15. Ahh nailguns, how you’ve hurt me. This was pretty damn interesting I must say. I’d like to see the de-nailing process of a crucifixion. Usually all the footage I’ve seen are of the people being nailed down.

  41. Rev is always one sure to impress. I’d like to see Manson try to do something even close to what Rev does at any given Only Flesh show.

  45. I was at this show.. and afterwards, I took Dave K to the side, and I sincerely thanked him for not hurting my friend. Its kinda weird and emotional to see this happen to someone you truly care about… BUT Rev made it threw, and then we drank some beer and life was ok again!

  55. Aw, I miss Ohio a wee bit now.
    I’m not going to lie, I had the biggest crush on the rev. when I was 17.

    …and ouch.

  57. Oh. So his palms were not the only thing supporting his body then. Because I was under the impression that your palms do not have enough “stuff” in them to support your body.

    According to whoever, Jesus was suspended by his wrists, as the nail would have rejected through his palms.

    If you believe such things.

  59. We crucified _Stigmata_ at a show sometime last year. Straight through the hand though, not the webbing. It was a fun show, glad to see someone else taking things further like we like to do. Only Flesh does some really cool shows, hopefully we can get them out here and perform with them again sometime.

  61. the hands would hold your weight only if you had the nails threw the foot as well. they used to say it would rip threw the hands but what they did not realize at the time was the amount of weight taken off by the feet being nailed down as well. they did a study on tv i watch where they nailed a dummy to the cross and the way the body shifted it held fine. I would not reccomend tryin this though hahahah. I’ll never go threw the center of my hand again after that show.

  71. Would have been a swank show to see. Though… I almost went into epileptic seizures there.
    Haha, stepping on nails. Ouch. My dad got one through the hand with a nail gun while re-roofing our house. Not exactly hardcore…
