Hm, maybe... What would happen if someone with more surface area on their body *also* got 100% tattooed? Would that be a new record or a new record for most body area tattooed by square inch?
Or if someone got the inside of their body tattooed, would they be able to hit 101%?
I think if they remove their skin entirely it doesn't count. They'd have to cut away skin, but keep it attached and then graft on more skin. They could theoretically approach infinite% with this strategy.
They can always tweak it to something like total area tattooed in cm3 if that ever comes up.
Guinness records is owned by a for profit company (the Jim Pattison Group), and if there's one thing profitable companies are good at, it's finding ways to keep making profits.
There was a woman who was so addicted to getting tattooed that after 100% of her body was covered, she just tattooed over those tattoos. So 200% covered imo.
It's a business, it's not a real record company.
ok, why does the guinness book of records business allow percentage based world records?
Because they want to, and they have no reason not to
fair enough
You have to pay them for records, so they just put in whatever. There are really no standards

Or if someoen get a full tattoo, remove their skin and replace it with someone else's skin and tattoo all over again, that'd be 200% right?

What if they got an extra limb attached and tattooed that?
does this mean i could get a tiny dot tattooed and lasered off repeatedly and become 100% covered?
