The Human Flag
Updated : Aug 4, 2009
An Indian man plans to get into the record books by having the flag of every nation in the world tattooed on his body.
Guinness Rishi, 67, plans to cover his entire body, including his privates, with 220 flags, reports The Sun.
He already sports the six flags of the UK, Canada, India, USA, Cyprus, and the Indian Congress Party on his face.
He said: "I will get eight tattoos done on bony areas such as my face each month and up to 16 on fleshy areas such as my stomach.
"I am tattooing my entire body including my private parts, but I am not sure which flag I will be sticking there.
"In the first phase, I believe that I can put 60 tattoos on my head and then we will start working on my body."
Guinness, who changed his name in honour of the famous record book, said he is determined to set a new world record even if it means upsetting his wife.
He said: "My wife thinks that I'm a crazy guy. She feels shame by all this. She thinks I'll become a joker.
"She has told me she won't go out in public with me if I go through with this."
