Body suspension is a ritual ordeal form of body play, where a person hangs from flesh hooks (which essentially look like giant fish hooks). The hooks are put through (normally) temporary piercings, and the person is carefully lifted into the air to hang from a few feet to several feet above the ground.

People who engage in body suspension claim to have a spiritual connection when they are hanging in the air. Although, I'm not convinced of this, it does seem that more people claim this feeling.

Many people even claim that after they have experienced a body suspension, they undergo a life change, as they have overcome a fear or they have experienced an awakening or sense of bliss and nirvana.
