Even the sight of someone being needled with a normal tattoo is enough to make your eyes water, then it might be best to look away now.
For body-art enthusiasts have developed a new technique that gives a whole new meaning to beauty being in the eye of the beholder.
What is thought to be the first ever "eyeball tattoo" has been inflicted on a man in Toronto - good news, perhaps, for anyone who ever dreamed of having blue eyes.
The tattooer injected ink into the eyeball of volunteer Pauly Unstoppable using a needle, until his eye was completely blue.
Just in case you weren't yet feeling squeamish enough, bear in mind that it took more than 40 tries before the eye was filled with ink.
The blue substance used was mixed with antibiotic eyewash.
The experiment was carried out for Canadian company ModProm, with those taking part insisting that Pauly would not go blind.
Pauly himself declared: "I really have to emphasize again that the procedure was extensively researched and done by people who were aware of the risks and possible complications and that it should not be casually attempted.
"Now that this experiment has been started, please wait for us to either heal or go blind before trying it."
“Dune” geek!
“...and how can this be? Because he is the Kwisatz Haderach!
Its not even a nice shade of blue.
Even if I wasn’t completely repulsed by tattoos, I’d still think this is one of the dumbest friggin things I’ve ever heard of.
How will Hillary/Obamacare deal with fools like this when they go blind and want the Gubmint to fix thier lives for them?
They might anticipate the color to change some.
They will take as much from you as necessary to ensure that the moron always votes for the ‘Rats.
It’s utterly amazing that someone dumb enough to have this done could find someone equally dumb to do it.
That picture looks like one of the safety warning posters at the plant where I used to work security.
ick. They’ll be sorry about that.
Guys got nothing better to do. Usually not a good idea
to add to what works already. The antibiotics will eventually
be excreted. But what will happen to the dye, will it stay
there tieing up eye “housekeeping” functions?
Will it be slowly excreted to other organs and poison them?
What kind of dye is it? Can it cause cancer, or mess up
immune cells, or decrease amount of oxygen to his eye
tissue, can it block his outflow ducts causing glaucoma?
Must have been a slow news day.
Cue Crystal Gayle...
and Elton John.
Cracked me up! You should have posted a “beverage warning.”
Too much collodial silver will turn your eyes blue.
People like this vote.
