Tattoo fan leaves people in hysterics with ‘father’ inking that looks like it says something VERY different
A TATTOO fan has left people in hysterics after showing off his new inking.
The man had opted for a sweet tribute to his son to be etched on the top of his shoulder blades.
However, instead of the 'h' in the word, he'd had it replaced with a picture of a man holding his son's hand.
A video showing the etching was shared on the page of Jamaican tattoo artist Wizink.
And people were quick to comment that the chosen tattoo - which the man had clearly chosen to be a cute memento of parenthood - actually looked like it said 'Fatter'.
The comments came in so quick that the tattoo pro had to turn them off on the main video.

"I’m salty you turned your comments off on the father tattoo," another raged.
"THAT S*** was DOPE AF!"
Tattoos on the shoulder blade are widely considered to be one of the most painful - rating a 9 out of 10 on the inking pain scale.
One person took to Reddit to ask for advice ahead of having a shoulder blade tattoo, questioning whether it's one of the most painful places.
"Everyone is different," one replied.
"I have my shoulder blade done and it was a 3-3.5h tattoo and I don’t find any of my tattoos to be painful when getting them, but this one was the most painful and the worst heal for me.
"I have my forearms and inner / outer calves done as well and those spots to me didn’t hurt, but I found the inner calves a bit spicy lol.
Which tattoos hurt the most?
Depending on what part of your body you choose to ink, tattoos can range significantly in terms of pain levels.
Some of the most painful areas are those where the skin tends to be thinner or closer to the bone.
Each area has specific factors which contribute to the level of pain.
Ribcage: Thin skin, little muscle, and many nerve endings.
Feet and ankles: Many bones, tendons, and nerve endings close to the surface.
Hands and fingers: Many bones, tendons, and nerve endings, resulting in increased pain during tattooing. Knuckles can be especially painful.
Spine: Proximity of the spinal cord and nerve endings makes it sensitive. Tattooing directly over the vertebrae can be especially painful.
Knees and elbows: Thin skin and little padding between the skin and the underlying bones.
Armpits and groin: High concentration of nerve endings and lymph nodes.
Neck and throat: Thin and sensitive skin, with many nerve endings and blood vessels close to the surface.

"Get the tattoo where you want it," another advised.
"The pain is not that bad and the tattoo is permanent, so if it's not where you want you will just regret it!"
"I don't know I got my whole back done and it hurt a lot!" a third admitted.
