The "Human Meathead" was created in the year 2000 based on the Human Blockhead stunt and it is invented by Ryan Stock. The performer displays a large meat hook and then proceeds to force it into the nostril, through his nasal cavity and out his mouth. When performing this stunt, Ryan Stock has said that he had suspended up to 70lbs from the end of the inserted hook.
Preacher Muad'dib, a world record holding sideshow specialist based in the UK, is famous for performing several advanced variations of the human Blockhead including a running power drill, fireworks, lit fire-eating rods, sharp knives, lit cigarettes and more.
Similar versions of this stunt often performed with condoms, noodles or balloons have been presented for many years under the name "mental Floss", however most sideshow performers regard mental floss (also known as "skull floss") as an entirely separate stunt.
