The fine craft of needles...


… for instance, in ‘Fibrilacija’, Tabar performed a medical procedure called fibrillation, where he, while fully conscious, pushed a catheter all the way to his heart so that the audience could see the moment when his heart trembled on a monitor.“ In another of Tabar’s pieces  ‘Luknjo v koleno’ (hole in the knee) he drilled though his leg with the aid of a ½ inch surgical drill in front of a live audience. (He’d had some practice – having previously drilled though some beef bones from a local butchers to perfect the technique.)

This guy sounds like the future of Monty Cantsin.
