Alcohol Is Bastard! Drunk Guy Woke Up To Tattoo On His Back.

A man woke up after passing out at a party to find his friend had tattooed his back.

Josh Darnbrough, 24, had passed out at a New Year's Eve party at the start of this year when the pratical joke took place.

His friend Rob Gaskell, also 24, inked the words "If found face down call an ambulance" using a DIY tattoo kit. Mr Darnbrough only realised he had a tattoo after looking in the mirror the following day.

The prank was in revenge for a tattoo Mr Darnbrough did on his friend's leg two years ago which went horribly wrong.

Starting off with a design for a lizard, when that went wrong Mr Darnbrough tried to turn it into a cross, then some hands and a gun - leading to one almighty, permanent mess on Mr Gaskell's leg and causing his partner to "go bonkers".



So when he saw Mr Darnbrough passed out at the party Mr Gaskell says he "couldn't resist" the opportunity to exact revenge - and spent 30 minutes etching his own design into his pal's back with a DIY tattoo kit.
However, the prank hasn't harmed the pair's friendship and they still see each other every day.
Mr Gaskell, a father-of-three from Mossley near Ashton, said: "The opportunity presented itself and I couldn't resist.
"I didn't feel guilty when I was doing it because I'd had a few drinks myself but I was quite remorseful afterwards and asked everyone not to tell Josh who had done it."



Support worker Mr Darnbrough, who also lives in Mossley, said: "I was pretty astonished when I looked in the mirror - I thought, 'I didn't go to bed with a tattoo'.
"But since I found out it was Rob it hasn't affected our friendship at all. It's just practical jokes between mates."


The two friends are now getting their tattoos removed with laser treatment - carried out by technician Maria Patricia.
Mr Gaskell, also a support worker, added: "If anyone is thinking of trying their own DIY tattoos - I would just say, don't."
