"I took Rickrolling to the next level with my QR code tattoo which links to the Rick Astley music video"
1 年前
A man has taken the 'Rickrolling' prank to the next level - by getting a QR code for the music video tattooed on his leg.
Massimo Mancin, 32, is a big fan of Rick Astley and his song 'Never Gonna Give You Up'.
But he got the tatt on his right calf "just for fun" after seeing similar QR code designs online.
Now whenever anyone holds a phone over the design it takes them to the YouTube video of the 1987 hit.
Rickrolling is an internet meme involving the unexpected appearance of the music video for the song.
It involves a disguised link which leads to the music video, and when victims click on it, the music video loads and they have been 'Rickrolled'.
Tattoo shop manager Massimo, from Pordenone, Italy, got the tattoo from colleague Leonardo Biason, 24.
Single Massimo, who got his first tattoo aged 18, said: "I didn’t expect it to work but luckily, it did. I kept looking over again to see if it was the right QR code."
He said friends and family found the Astley tattoo hilarious and he was told "it could only be you that did that."
Massimo pranks people regularly with the ink which he had done in August 2021, telling them to scan it with no context.
He said he has no regrets - and won't be getting it inked over anytime soon.
He added: "I am going to keep the tattoo forever even - when I’m old.”
Massimo said after a video of his tattoo went viral it was shown to Rick Astley himself on The Kelly Clarkson Show.
It's not the first time he has had a tattoo inspired by an internet meme.
He also has a 'Creation of Adam' parody tattoo - a meme featuring edited versions of the painting by Michelangelo.
Massimo has the original tattooed next to his knee but instead of pointing, the right side hand is sticking up a middle finger.
