I wasn't sure where to post this since it could be under "For Tattoo Lovers" or even "Humour". In the end I chose "Chit Chat".
Supposed to be true, if it is, it's a bit hard to believe. Checked it on Snopes but could not find anything to say it isn't so. It was shown as coming from a newspaper in Yorkshire, England. (Only the English could do something like this):
Buttock tattoo terror lands Rotherham pair in hospital
A row has broken out between a local tattoo artist and his client after what started out as a routine inking session left both of them requiring emergency hospital treatment.
Furious film fan and part-time plus-size model Tracey Munter (23), had visited the Ink It Good Tattoo Emporium on Wellgate last week to have the finishing touches applied to a double buttock representation of the chariot race scene from the iconic 1959 film, Ben Hur.
Tattooist Jason Burns takes up the story.
âIt was a big job in more ways than one.â he told us âIâd just lit a roll-up and was finishing off a centurions helmet. Itâs delicate, close up work. Next thing is, I sense a slight ripple in the buttock cleavage area just around Charlton Hestonâs whip, and a hissing sound â more of a whoosh than a rasp â and before I know whatâs happening, thereâs a flame shooting from her arse to my fag and my beards gone up like an Aussie bush fire.â
Jason says he rushed to the studio sink to quell the flames, only to turn round and see Tracey frantically fanning her buttock area with a damp towel. The flames had travelled down the gas cloud and set fire to her thong which was smoking like a cheap firework.
âTo be honestâ, said Jason, âI didnât even realise she was wearing one. Youâd need a sodding mining licence and a torch to find out for sure. She could have had a complete wardrobe in there and Iâd have been none the wiser.â
Jason and Tracey were taken to Rotherham District Hospital accident and emergency department where they were treated for minor burns and shock. Both are adamant that the other is to blame.
âIâm furiousâ said Jason, âIâve got a face like a mange-ridden dog and my left eyebrowâs not there any more. I donât know about Ben Hur â Gone With The Windâs more like it. You donât just let rip in someoneâs face like that. Itâs dangerous.â
But Tracey remains both angry and unrepentant;
âIâm still in agony,â she said, âand Charlton Heston looks more like Sidney bloody Poitier now. Jason shouldnât have had a fag on the go and thereâs no way Iâd guff on purpose. Heâd had me on all fours for nearly an hour I can only put up with that for so long before nature takes its course. My Kev knows that I give him my five-second warning and Iâd have done the same for Jason, but I didnât get chance â it just crept out.â
Ted Walters from the South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue service wasnât surprised when we told him what had happened âPeople just donât appreciate the dangers.â he told us, âWe get called out to more flatulence ignition incidents than kitchen fires these days now people have moved over to oven chips. We have a slogan âFlame ân fart â keep âem apartâ Anyone engaging in an arse-inking scenario would do well to bear that in mind in future.â
