APB The Human Avatar Stage Three: Experiment Breaks the Pain Barrier

To launch new online multiplayer game APB: All Points Bulletin, EA Games and Real Time Worlds are 'launching' a real human into a game. They selected 25-year-old Josh as the subject, chose a wild new hairstyle and have now selected a snout ring as his piercing , continuing a total transformation that will turn him into a citizen of San Paro - the fictional city in which the game is set. Voters headed to www.thehumanavatar.com and picked his piercing, with more than 50 percent of the votes going for an eye-watering snout ring from a list of piercings that also included a brow stud, iron cross, tribal piercing, steel hoops and spikes. The video of Josh's painful piercing where you can also see which design voters chose for Josh's tattoo when voting closer earlier today.
