An ICON because...
With an impressive 100% of his body covered in ink, Lucky Diamond Rich holds the Guinness World Records title for the most tattooed person living (male).
Born Greg Paul McLaren, he chose his stage name because of its meaning: "Diamond came about because my friends call me a bit of a rough diamond, and Rich because I’m rich in spirit."
After getting his first bodysuit tattoo at 28, Lucky took his inking journey to never-seen-before lengths: he layered tattoos over tattoos, and spent over 1,000 hours having his body modified by hundreds of tattoo artists.
It's not only Lucky's skin that is covered in ink: he also injected ink into his eyelids and gums, the thin skin between the toes and even down into the ears.
He took tattooing to the next level as he's added white designs on top of the black ink, and layering coloured arts on top of that.
On top of being the most tattooed man on Earth, he also swallows swords, juggles with a chainsaw and rides a ten-foot unicycle.
