It’s refreshing to see modifications that are totally different from all that we are used to.

The things they showed about body modification really caught my attention, back then I knew nothing about piercing beyond my experience with a beauty salon and a piercing gun.. I remember he got his septum pierced with a thorn or something in one episode, I never imagined at the time that one day I would get the same piercing, albeit in a much cleaner environment, haha.. I guess if it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be reading your blog right now.

It must have been from the early 2000s. Like many people, it played a motivational role in some of my own body modification.

I’ll watch out for Bruce Parry’s Tribe for sure.

And yeah, he does DMT (tries to anyway) and a bunch of other stuff in this series… Not many journalists would do so!

It’s something I’d imagine would be very up your street. He’s basically fearless when it comes to ritual drug use.
Seeing him have a life changing experience using iboga in real time is pretty amazing.
Not quite sure if it got rebranded for your market
