A recent incident involving a man's decision to cover himself in squid ink has captured widespread attention and astonishment.
The consequences of his actions have left people shocked and curious about the risks associated with squid ink.
Squid ink is captivating to see and tasty to eat, but there is one thing people should be cautious about when touching it.
Touching it directly with your bare skin is not recommended.
In the past, squid ink was used for writing with quills, so you can probably guess what happened when someone decided to cover both of their arms with a whole ink sac.
The man, identified as Brendan Wang, took to TikTok with the username @youfishtv to record his bad venture.
In the video, he can be seen taking the ink sac from a squid and proceeding to cover both of his arms with it.
Despite numerous warnings about the intensity of squid ink, Wang seemed determined to test its effects on his skin.
However, he didn't anticipate the long-lasting outcome. Five days later, his arms remained completely black, showing no signs of fading.
The images left viewers astounded and prompted various reactions.
Bro started going crazy, one user said.
I was crazy once, the second user said.
Good thing he didn’t break it! That coulda been a big mess, another wrote.
as long as you don't put it on your face man, someone said.
After all, Wang understood the seriousness of what he had done and recognized the highly concentrated nature of the ink.
He warned others not to attempt similar experiments. He emphasized the long-lasting effect of the ink's stain on the skin.
Although he noticed slight fading in the area between his fingers, it would still take approximately two weeks for the ink to completely vanish.
The latest information about Wang's condition fascinated and puzzled those who watched, as they were amazed by the unexpected outcomes of his squid ink trial.
Some individuals even jokingly contemplated using squid ink for cosmetic reasons, while others speculated about potential unknown health advantages linked to the ink.
While it is believed that the ink will gradually wear off as Wang sheds skin cells over about a month, it is safe to say that he has learned a valuable lesson about squid ink.
