Performance Artists are all idiots. I heard a story today, a friend's roommate's boyfriend is a performance artist, and to 'protest the Iraq war' he ripped off all his clothes at a party and circumcised himself. Apparently the knife wasn't all that sharp, either.
Dude had to go to the hospital.
Apparently getting a tetanus shot in your penis hurts a LOT more than actually cutting off your foreskin. (FYI)
