      I never felt that scars are ugly, on anyone. I have two from accidents, one of them looks kinda odd, too, and in the summer it's very visible. But they have never bothered me. I can't even explain why, because they don't tell particularly interesting stories (only that I was a reckless child). But they are part of me.

    no wonder this hurt a lot, took forever, and looks terribly uneven. that equipment is junk! a good kauter is hotter and and keeps a constant temperature. allowing much faster and more precise work. the pain receptors are instantly vaporized, and because the contact time is very short, the surrounding tissue wont be fried, which makes it hurts like crazy and take much longer to heal.

  • @NoireLockheart
    @NoireLockheart 12 лет назад +2

  • @glidershower
    @glidershower 12 лет назад +3

    Totally have to respect those who brand themselves. In an era where commodity and fashion have contaminated spiritual meaning and direction, it's not hard to see people pierced and tattooed by professionals because "it was kewl". Not that I'm trying to put down people who do it because they have a higher motive, of course.
    So branding takes that away, making whatever thing is etched on your skin totally permanent, etched on your mind as well due to the pain, forcing on permanency the message.

  • @TheSebiiChannel

    The point of body modification isnt to please others. Its to please yourself. If they really cared what others think, they probably wouldve never gone through with it at all. So, maybe its not beautiful to you, but to people like me, it is VERY beautiful. I love it.

  • @NickSparkss

    Don't advise people to do this themselves.
    It may not look special, but the guy in the video certainly does have special qualifications. Not only is he working in a sterile room with medical grade sterilized steel, but he also underwent several years (2yrs is required, plus refresher courses) of blood-borne pathogen prevention training to help reduce the risk of infection, which is especially high when talking about scarification.

  • @nopatone
    @nopatone 9 лет назад +3

    i would have loved to see this healed btw..
    still, i feel like "being a rebel" is not done by putting shit between your skin and skull, and if how you look shouldn't be important, then why the hell enduring 5 hours of excruciating pain for it? it probably is because you are either insicure, or really craving for people's respect, and both those behaviors are not much in line with being a rebel.
    That said, I think that if you like the aesthetics or the "rite of passage" meaning, there's nothing wrong in doing this kind of things, I just believe the guy in the video to be self contradictory

  • @britbrat1127
    @britbrat1127 8 лет назад

    About five and a half years ago I suffered second degree chemical burns on both sides of my abdomen. I had two ileostomys (google it) at different times. They were defective and therefore caused incontinence. Stool ate away at my skin down into several underlying layers of my skin. There is nothing to describe that pain. Now I have many keloids and massive scars along with pieces of my flesh missing (having been necrotic and falling off). Almost died from going into shock. This isn't a body modification; it is life and death. Why anyone would willingly go through this type of pain is beyond me. I didn't have a choice.

  • @carletoznguitar
    @carletoznguitar 11 лет назад

    I've no idea how much it'll hurt, but it should be less painful than a piercing, the thing is that it takes longer to make, so you'll be feeling the pain for several minutes. It really isnt bad at all, feels like a completely tolerable burn. NOTHING like this.

    I have always taken pride in my tolerance for pain, the only reason I say that is that there is no way I would be able to handle this. A burn is, to me, the worst most intense ( and completely inescapable ) pain there is. You have to be far more gnarly than I to be able to do this. I do however think it looks amazing when well done, and those who have it done should wear their brand as a badge of pride. I will stick with my tattoos though haha.

    Some tribes in Africa have this transition ritual where the boy goes into the wild and tries to survive for two weeks. If he returns, he's a man and as a celebration ritual he'll jump over fire and have "tattoos" cut on his body. To make sure the cuts become scars (for the tattoo-effect) they massage the wounds with salt.
    Now I know from experience salt kinda burns, but you have to be mental to let yourself get burned for 5hours straight just because you wanna "look cool".

    All of this is more so a personal passing. i think there is somewhere in a persons mind (or some peoples) that says "if I have made it through that pain, I want to one-up myself." We are entering an age of COMPLETE customizing. Some people stick with the phones, clothes, cars and so on, others crave skin deep customization. I believe it is at its peak in American society and these taboo ideas are becoming accepted. the art will die down once people aren't concidered unique, different, or weird.

    I got my first tattoo on my foot. It's quite a big one and took about two hours to complete. There are a lot of bones and nerves in your foot so it does hurt. Not as bad as I thought it would though. My body did go in to chock and I was shaking uncontrollably for the last 15 minutes of it. It was worth it though XD

    As someone who has seen it with their own eyes, yes they do.

    Ok, what does this say about the person getting it done? It is part of our evolutionary success that we have learned to avoid danger. But also, what does it say about the person willing to inflict this kind of pain on someone else?

    I've burnt myself many, many times before even as a young child, I'm a pyro but rarely I screw up and when I do, it sucks

    I love this. Honestly, kudos to that dude. I want to get one in the near future, since I found out about a really good body mod artist out in Nanaimo BC
