A while back I wrote about my best meaningful tattoos so seeing that there's another prompt on bizarre tattoos, I was all in and went to do my research.
Let's just say that the seki before the research and the seki after the research are totally different people 😭
It's quite interesting, disgusting and appalling just how far and how much people are going to go in inking their body. You may think that celebrities are far gone, but the main ink boards are just too weird to become celebrities.
Regardless, I've managed to go and gather 4 of the most weirdest, the most infamous, the most bizarre tattoo's you may ever know.
4. The Stump Head Dolphin.
The leading mixture of creativity is a mix of ingenuity, creativity, curiosity and determination.
Heine Braeck at 33 suddenly grew tired of looking at the stump which was a product of a railroad childhood accident and decided to go do something about it.
It didn't take him long to think of this design as it had already been rooted in his head since the accident at how dolphin-like his stump looked.
Mr Ska, the owner of 'Sofia Ink' in Bulgaria spent 3.5 hours on the intricate job.
Heine isn't a stranger to tattoos and body modifications though as he already has others done in other parts of his body, none as odd as the dolphin though.
Apparently, his friends love the 3D representation of the animal and he's pretty proud of his now interesting stump.
Bizarre folks gats have bizarre friends
3. Lizard Man
Here's one that's fairly popular, the real life replication of The Lizard from The Spider-Man.
Eric Sprague, an American freak show and slideshow performer.
He's made it his life work to become a human lizard and he has made quite an impressive progress with it.
His efforts to turn reptilian includes an extensive list of body modifications including teeth sharpening, tongue bifurcation, subdermal implantation, green inked lips and most noticeable, a full body tattoo.
He is a celebrity though, at least a minor one as his body modification quest has earned him quite a following and money coming to carnivals and freak shows.
2. Zombie Boy
Rick Genest, also known as Zombie Boy is a prime example that Skull Face tattoos are cool and totally not weird in anywhere that's not on the face.
He held the world record for full body tattoos once.
A performer and freakshow regular guest like Lizard Man, Rick Gebest was a popular figure, unfortunately he died in 2018.
1. Tattoo Grandma
Tattoo grandma has been an archaic figure in weird tattoos talkshows and lists.
Her full body tattoo including her bossom is quite a shocking choice for a seasoned woman.
Although due to my personal values and PG law officers like (@teknon and @jhymie) I won't share that here...
Instead, we get to see her penis eggplant garden forehead 😂💔
As all can see these are tattoos that are incredibly and beautifully bizarre in their designs.
I don't think I can ever fully understand what spurred folks to do this to themselves, especially when these drawings and images would stay with them to death.
I do although commend their bravery and choices, as they'll forever be an object of wonder, fear, dread and amusement to so many others.
This is my entry into Day 17 of the #augustinleo monthly prompt posted by @leogrowth✨
As always, they have lovely prompts here...
If you don't have any ideas of what to write, I advice and urge you to give it a look 😃
