Many people use tattoos to pay tribute to their parent, child, or significant other. Some friends and spouses even get matching tattoos. But would you ever want 152 of your "closest" friends permanently tattooed on your arm? YouTube user susyj87 in the Netherlands did just that with her social media tattoo sleeve, getting inked with 152 Facebook profile photos. Let's hope none of them defriend her in the near future.

Here's susyj87's description of the video: "Finishing my social tattoo with 152 pictures of my Facebook Friends! Of course I gave it a lot of thought. These are not all my friends. Just the people I care most about. I got their permission and they were very proud to be on it. To me it represents who I am right now and the time we live in. And of course I love the looks of it. The Tattoo is designed by Pretty Social and the tattoo artist is Tattoo Dex."

i seen somewhere yesterday that its fake, i believe it was the temp tattoos.

here it is....

A YouTube video showing a Netherlands woman who claimed to get her top 152 Facebook friends tattooed on her arm has been revealed to be (gasp!) a fake.
According to Forbes, a Dutch newspaper confirmed the video was a hoax put together by Rotterdam tattoo artist Dex Moelker as an advertising stunt to promote Pretty Social and Tattoo Dex.
"It is a try-out tattoo, a transfer, that washes off in a couple days," Moelker told The Telegraaf. The images of the woman's 152 friends took a couple hours, not the two weeks she originally claimed.
Watch the original video again, and notice that there doesn't seem to be any bleeding or puffiness, not to mention any close-up shots of the tattoo itself:

Some suspected the video's authenticity from the start, but most got caught up in the fun questions, such as "what happens if her friends change a profile picture?" and "can she unfriend any of them?" Still, the YouTube video has been viewed more than 1.5 million times in less than a week.
