TATTOOING Close Up (in Slow Motion)

Destin from Smarter Every Day brought a Phantom Miro camera to a tattoo parlor to get a super-up-close look at how the process really works. He starts with a tutorial on the inner workings of tattoo machines (which are NOT supposed to be called "tattoo guns," thank you very much), followed up by a close-up view of what tattoo needles are actually doing when they permanently mark human skin. There's also a helpful guide to why you should NOT under any circumstances try to tattoo yourself. You know, in case you were considering it.
