Stories.........Let's get it started.

[STRENGTH AND POWER]

I have suspended twice, once with 12 8ga. hooks face down on an aluminum framed rig in the shape of a cross powdercoated red, it was quite the photo op. My first time was on my birthday, I don't think there is too many people that have had Happy Birthday sung to them while they are hanging from 4 6ga. hook across the shoulders. It quite the experience because yer body and mind are at conflict with each other it seems. I haven't hung in several years as I moved to a different state but there will be another time for sure

I know that some native indian tribes would do this as a right of passage. They used leather straps and bones to pierce the skin on their chests. then they would go into a trance all the while moving in a circle about the perimeter of a pole to which the leather was attached. Every now and again they would lean back and let their wieght be applied to the bone and strap.
the whole thing gives me the shivers.
Anyway im goin' to go fire up the ol' O/A and heat some metal cherry red... I feel a branding coming on....

A superman aka crucifiction and a suicide. One other person there did a superman face down and his girlfreind did one face up hanging from him. He 32 hooks in him. I'll be doing it again in may (I can't wait!!!). I'm thinking of hanging from the knees. Here's a link to my peircer if you wan't to see some of his other suspentions:

I'm kinda entertaining the idea of getting some scarification work done. Think tattooing with a scalpel.

I was asked to fix a leak in a sprinkler system at a Home Depot during construction. I said sure. I messed up a knee earlier in the week and had to wear one of those blue knee braces. I got to the job and they said the man lift could'nt get to the leak. I had to climb out of the lift on to a pallet rack of patio stones and reach up and weld it. The manager just kind of look at me and walked the other way. I was cursing the knee when I had to jump from the lift to the pallet of stones. I will say they made me wear fall protection while in the lift. I guess I didn't need it when I got out.

This happened on another job. I had to wear fall protecction in a lift but not on a 40ft ladded. What's easier to fall off?

we had 3 guys here killed when lift catapulted them out of it in etowah north carolina last year. i dont see no need to tie off on ladder until you get in position but you should always tie off in lift
