World's most tattooed man has been found to be Lucky Diamond Rich. His real name is Gregory Paul McLaren and he has spent more than 1000 hours, which is over 41 days, on the table getting inked by various artists. Rich also holds the popular Guinness World Record for being the most tattooed man for sixteen years now. After getting tattooed twice over on his body, there seems to be no space left for getting any more tattoos. But the look that Rich is carrying around is really something and the video in which he shows off his tattoos is going viral on social media.
Rich's tattooed body is really something!
As per the record held by Rich, he has covered as much as 200 per cent of his entire body in tattoos. This was made possible after he inked his body from head to toe, not once but twice. Not only his skin, but Rich's eyelids, gums, ear canals, and even his penis are covered in ink. His body is covered in patterns and text also appears as tattoos. Listening to Rich tell his tattoo journey is quite an experience. Rich is also a performer and has been getting tattoos since he was 16 years old.
