The piercings from the 9th Annual South Florida Tattoo Expo are off the chain! One particular piercing still makes me a little queasy, I have to admit. Call me a wuss and twist my nipple, I don't care. Watching Joe Amato's 10 inch piercing, in which he works a needle and tube across Nikki's abdomen, nearly makes me fall out. Nikki pulls through, though, with a wince and Joe's piercing is a success. Check out his sponsor at www.h2ocean.com for his upcoming world record breaking piercing attempt scheduled for November 15, 2004.

Joe Amato inserted four two inch "staples" in Rikki Tafoya's ribs.
Joe Amato also pierces Tim McDanel's eyelid.
Tim McDanel, the eyelid guy, ends up getting suspended! The original suspension crew got canceled due to the hurricane, but after some scrambling and the skills of Lukas Zpira a renowned piercer from France (check him out at www.body-art.net), the suspensions continue. It is a great finish to a great show. The apparatus of choice for the suspension is a bell boy cart. The harness is skillfully attached and Tim is hooked up and wheeled around the event floor in the lotus position. It's a crazy site!
