Ok so here's the kinda crazy part. I'm a sideshow and fire performer. I've suffered large burns, I can drill into my sinus cavity, I had my tongue surgically split, I staple myself with an upholstery stapler all the time.

Nothing has beat dental pain.

Sorry, what? You drill into your sinus cavity? What does that mean?

It's called blockhead

I do it with icepicks, nails, and even power drills. I can also mental floss, in which a tube goes in the nose and out the mouth, though I'm still new to that one. Power drills are very uncomfortable and have caused the most nosebleeds.

That's super cool! I knew a guy that would eat small ropes and pull it out his nose but... Wow that is next level. Thanks for sharing.

Damn, that's actually harder! Reverse mental floss

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Wow. I'm super interested.
