It's more than a known fact that the Great Nippulini uses only real objects and items from the real world in his act... not fabricated and falsified props, intended only to lure and fool you.  The Great Nippulini asks audience volunteers to verify that these artifacts are accurate, even asking them to drop them to the floor mere inches above.  The thunderous "boom" of the object hitting the stage is enough to show the rest of the audience that this is no joke. 

Here are some pictures of these items.

JEWELRY!

Here is one of the shackles the Great Nippulini uses in his act.  It measures 00 gauge (3/8") thick and has a custom curled 4 gauge (1/4") barbell running through to allow for clips, chains, etc.

This is the Great Nippulini displaying his 10 inch double zero gauge barbell.  With this piece in place, he can actually utilize his nipples to crush plastic cups!

THE OBJECTS OF DESIRE...

"What in God's name is in here!?"

These are standard regulation bowling pins.  Wood construction, lead weighted and covered with plastic, these babies weigh about 3.5 pounds each.  The Great Nippulini just loves dangling them from his ears and clapping them together as a bowling ball swings from the nipples.  True creativity in his art.

This 18" spring, approximately 6 pounds, was found on the road by the Great Nippulini.  For no apparent reason, it held some sort of appeal to him.  He was then struck with the awesome notion that this could be hung from his nipples!!  The fun started with this one.  It is out of commission now, being how seemingly lightweight in comparison to these other objects.

This 10 lb. mud anchor was purchased by the Great Nippulini while in Baltimore on vacation with his wife.  Being that the two live by a major creek, they have also used the anchor for BOATING!  Imagine that!  While not in service to the Great Nippulini's Sea Eagle 9, this mighty anchor hung is only a mere fraction of the maximum weight he can sustain.

This, strange acquisition is a weight of some sort.  The 4" diameter cylindrical object is solid cast wrought iron with a 00 gauge ring bolt attached.  Purchased at an antique shop, the origins of this piece are mysteriously unknown.  It weighs 13
pounds!

Another addition to the collection, this 15 pound anvil is solid cast iron and obviously made in China.  Slightly lighter and smaller than the bowling ball, this piece has significant visual appeal, as anyone raised on American pop culture can recognize this famed object for its ability to crush the head of their favorite cartoon character.

This 16 pound bowling ball is no joke.  Donated to the Great Nippulini from a local bowling alley, then outfitted with an eye bolt for hanging, this ball looks insane while suspended from the mighty nipples of Nippulini. 

DAMN!! What the hell is that!?  It's a small transmission of some sort.  Completely intact with gears, shaft and all inside.  The shaft has been cut to provide a nice balance to the piece while being hung.  The piece is 17 pounds.

This is the first interactive suspension object the Great Nippulini has employed.  It is a 21 pound bench grinder that actually works.  As you can see from the picture above (click it to see it in action), the Great Nippulini is giving it a test-run to ensure that it will give off a nice shower of sparks.

Here is a show stopper.  This 4" jaw bench vise had a shipping weight of 27 pounds but was cut down to 22 pounds.  The Great Nippulini tested this piece out during his first show for the 6th Annual Fringe Festival, and surprisingly it did not remove any of his nipples.  This was one of the heaviest pieces yet!

Yet another anvil! This one is 30 pounds of cast steel, purchased at a steel mill in New Jersey.  Slightly larger than it's little brother, this chunk of metal can be paired up with the 15 pounder for a total of 45 POUNDS!!  This big anvil is not yet the heaviest object...

 This used to be the heaviest item the Great Nippulini has used and it is also the most stunning.  This is a cylinder head for a late '90s/early 2K Ford truck engine, 5.4 liter V8.  Fully cleaned and sparkling, this chunk of metal is useless (minute cracks in the valve seats), and seriously heavy...
a full 34 POUNDS of Detroits finest cast aluminum!

This is the "Big Bubba" of the Great Nippulini's anvil collection and is currently the heaviest
item out of ALL the objects he uses.  This anvil is 55 POUNDS of solid cast iron.  Outfitted 
with a special eye bolt, the Great Nippulini can lift this piece for an indefinite amount of time!
