Now Playing Tracks

A man who lost an arm in a freak accident has had his stump transformed by a tattoo artist into the head of a dolphin.

Heine Braeck, 33, hated his stump, caused by a childhood accident on a train track.  The Norwegian realised the shape of his stump was identical to a dolphin’s head.  So he asked Bulgarian artist Valio Ska to turn the stump into a 3D tattoo, with amazing results.  Valio spent over three hours on the meticulous ink job.

Heine said: “When I was 13 I tried to take a shortcut across the top of a stationary train which started moving.  “I lost my balance and grabbed hold of the wire that powers the train and got fried.  “The first thing I saw after surgery was how much my arm was shaped like a dolphin’s head.  “I finally decided to do something about it and got in touch with Valio and arranged to have the tattoo done. “My friends think it is awesome and I love it because I don’t have to look at a tired old stump anymore.”

me when i lose followers

me when i have to get off tumblr to go to school

me when i see tom daley’s abs on the screen…

Me when someone calls me attractive.

Me when the Nutella’s empty.

Me when i have to tilt the screen back because i have changed where i was lying…

me when i see my inbox empty during honesty hour

I’m not a cat.

My school had this week called, “I Believe” Week and one of the days was “I believe in my story.”

People wrote on these note cards starting with “If you really knew me you would know that…”

Some of these notecards said:

  • “If you really knew me, you’d know that I was raped by my older brother everday.”
  • “If you really knew me, you’d know that my mom is a heroin addict and it’s tearing my family apart.”
  • “If you really knew me, you’d know that I had cancer when I was 5 and people made fun of me because I was different and didn’t have hair.”
  • “If you really knew me, you’d know that I was sexually harassed and abused as a child.
  • “If you really knew me, you’d know that I suffer from depression and I’ve attempted suicide.”
  • If you really knew me, you’d know that I got into a car crash with my best friend and I held her in my arms, blood everywhere. RIP.

When people came up to read these note cards, a lot of them started crying. It made many people realize that everyone has a story and that you’re not alone.

i wanna do this

wow

everyone needs to share this, it’s so powerful

ah I did this at camp it’s really great to know you’re not alone

my school needs to do this

i wish my school would do this

I would tell my school, but “it would take away from the education”

Tearing up. Everyone has a story.
