Body piercings are very popular these days but some facial piercings can be frightening. Like the ones in these photos. They may make a style statement but they are very disturbing. But, then again, no one ever said that popular had to be pretty.

Some history just in case. The pictures depict American astronaut Bruce McCandless II who became the first to make an untethered spacewalk thanks to nitrogen jet propelled backpack called the Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU) in 1984.

MMUs are no longer used due to security problems, but astronauts now wear a similar backpack device in case of emergency.
