What sort of tattoo does one get when on top of the most iconic skyscraper in the world? A drawing of the top of said skyscraper of course!
We’re glad to see that Bang Bang was able to pull this off without any sort of trouble from the law. Something tells us that tattooing on the observation deck is frowned upon, even when creating a one-of-a-kind piece of art. Get a feel for what happened that day in the video below, then scroll down further for a photo gallery showing some shots from the tattoo session.
