There are dungeon clubs in London that have steady suspension rigs to safely take the full weight of a human, and you can rent that room for a few hours - so I've heard from another member here who lives in the capital (I'm from Sweden myself). If you are thinking of putting up some sort of suspension hooks or rig at home, it has to be able to take free hanging weight in the range of 1000 pounds (450 kg) or more, without the fixtures/hooks being bent or pulled hard. The pulling power of a body that's squirming and struggling multiplies from the force of a steady "dead" weight (like, a 200 lb sack of gravel) so you must count on several times the weight of the suspended person.


Sometimes piercing studios do this kind of thing too, but not from larger steel or wooden hooks above you, more in the style of a large number of "shark hooks" digging into your back and leaving uyou suspended.
