Miana gets a little help from CJ when she felt a little weak in the middle of her suspension… By the way, if you’re in Thailand and want to suspend, CJ, part of the TSD crew, is a good guy to know!

Knee suspension, age 10
The rules are different in São Paulo, Brasil. Freakboy sends in this “knee kids” photo, writing, “falsa suspensã knee — somente uma brincadeira!!!” I hope someone at the FBI speaks Portugese… Well, click through for a closeup.
Ilya’s Sunday Hangout
Ilya from the Flesh Factory in Amsterdam did this “Red Bridge Project” with his friend Jenn and assistance from **loveless**. They pierced Ilya at a nearby house and did the base rigging there as well. They took a boat out to the bridge which already had the ropes in place, then a single click to attach him and they pulled them both up!
I wonder what the dog is thinking?

Håvve Fjell (featured in the video) adds this..
“I should mention that Pain Solution has been granted funding from the Norwegian Cultural Council to produce a play combining classic sideshow and self-torture for the theatre scene. My aim is to strengthen the genre I work with in the cultural landscape, bringing it up and out from the underground. Freak show for the people!
Also, I have started a Fakir school in order to educate the next generation, and shape artists I can work with in the future.”

Art!
Phil recently received an interesting (and unsolicited) review from a publishing agent in San Francisco, he assumed it was a sales pitch but she had this to say about his work:
“To say that I was shocked by the pictures you posted on your website (details courtesy of Lightstalkers) is an understatement. However, I must appreciate the fact that your pictures depicting the limits of the flesh are one-of-a-kind, and that they deserve to be preserved in the form of a book.”
If you are interested in seeing his work he has an opening at Blackline Studio as part of their one year anniversary party on June 22nd. There will be more details posted on their site soon. The show will also run until the middle of July so if you are in town for BMEfest I recommend you check it out!
Also, check out his personal site (PhilipBarbosa.com) if you’d like to see the show in miniature on your monitor.
