being left 'hanging'

[kronas]

well i didnt know where to put this one.....

5 youngsters in florida created a bamboo tripod and attached meat hooks to it and then 'hooked' themselves on to the tripod by using the hooks to attach themselves....

A young woman, her feet brushing the surface of the shallow water, dangled from the frame, hooks embedded firmly in her shoulders.

it seems it was an intended stunt for a body piercing site, as the piercings were done in a manner where little blood was spilt...

Never mind the hooks, what's this about a popular sandbar? What's so special about this sandbar? A sandbar is simply a pile of sand when all's said and done.

However, getting back to the hooks. Some of you may recall the film "A man called horse", where the hero undergoes a Red Indian initiation ritual that involves him being suspended by ropes from skewers that have been inserted through his breasts.
