Ok, so while were in Savannah, we got pedis and on TV there was a show about body modifications. It was sooo gross. It was crazy. So now that I have a little downtime I started looking into and it is sooo crazy. There is actually a church of body modification. They believe in modifying their bodies as a statement of growth and a way to promote mind, body and soul. Whaaaat?? We saw on the show that they do these subdermal implants where basically they have a piece of metal inserted into their bodies. It was so disgustingly fascinating that we couldn't look away. People were also getting their tongues split (like snakes!) and even filing their teeth into points. There is also pearling where you get beads placed under your skin. Yuck! Tightlacing, which is basically corsetting and even eyeball tatoos!! The pic above is actually a piece of jewelry surgically inserted into the eye.
