Australia Shares Their Most Wildly Bad Tattoos That Represent Aussie Culture
Unlike the Land Down Under's Mt. Disappointment, these 60 horribly bad Aussie tattoos will not let you down.
Eating pineapple on pizza and drinking out of boots (oh yeah, they eat their own national animal… yes kangaroo filet is a thing…) Australia is a strange country and continent. It’s a tiny place, (there are more than 150 million sheep in Australia and only 20 million people; that’s 8 sheep for every person…) but a strange place nonetheless.
Australia may be home to 10 of the world’s 15 most-poisonous snakes, (and a disproportionate amount of venomous spiders) but the Land Down Under also has an 800-meter high mountain named Mt. Disappointment.
Whether it be tattoo homages to Australian gang leader and convicted police murderer Ned Kelly, or a tribute to the weird Vegemite spread Aussies love, unlike said mountain, these wildly bad Australian tattoos do not disappoint.
