You know that people love to talk about how painful it is to get a tattoo, but could you imagine getting one done on your forehead?
Well, that's exactly what happened when a group of British men on a stag do paid a homeless man in Benidorm to have a tattoo done on his forehead. No need to rub your eyes, folks. You read that right the first time.
You must be wondering how much they paid him to do it? £1,000? £100? Nope, it was actually just £90. To kick the homeless man down even further, they wanted the tattoo to spell out the groom's name and postcode.
The ink reads: "Jamie Blake, North Shields, N28."
It's already enough of a swipe at the man's dignity to make the request, let alone actually pay him to go through with it. But you might be wondering how it could be worse? Never ask that question - it can always be worse.
According to the Daily Star, the man could not have the tattoo finished because of the pain. Ouch. It couldn't be more of a nightmare situation for the man, who is believed to be a Polish national called Tomek.
You have to wonder how Tomek feels about all this, and the widespread fury that it actually happened - aimed squarely at the men who paid him to do it, of course.

Tomek appears to have taken it like a trouper, however, and you can see him throwing up a peace sign as the needle is at work on his forehead.
Karen Cowles, the president of the Benidorm British Business Association, told the Star (via the Sun): "What they have done to this man is utterly inhumane and akin to abuse.
"I'm appalled that a group of grown men would take advantage of someone in such a vulnerable position. They have left a human being scarred for the rest of his their life."
Karen has said that local businesses are looking at the possibility of paying for Tomek's tattoo to be removed.
Little wonder that the men were apparently unwilling to get the tattoo themselves, although when you consider how pissed they must have been to think this was a good idea, you do wonder why none of them could be persuaded.

Nobody wants to end a stag do as Stu from The Hangover and have the most horrible kind of tattoo sitting on the side of their face.
