Just because they don’t have a limb doesn’t mean they can’t have a sense of humor.
This guy turned his amputated hand into a finger with a giant tattoo of a fingernail! (By artist Brad Bako). (Link 1 | Link 2)
Hopefully, now no one will ask what happened to him. (Link)
Was it the *F* word or the *L* word? If it was the second option, take it as a warning against trusting in luck. (Link)
What is available to cut below the line? Amputee Orlando Wallace shows off his tattoo – and the dark side of his sense of humor. (Link)
Probably the tasteless tattoo ever. (Link)
“love, pig” (Link)
After mastectomies due to breast cancer, some women opt not to undergo reconstruction surgery. Instead of hiding their experience, a few decide to celebrate it by tattooing a beautiful and/or significant design on their chests. This one is bytattoo artist Pat Fish . (Link)
Staff Sgt. Matt Lammers had already won a Purple Heart following a duty-related injury. Now he has another — after losing three limbs in Iraq. He shows off thetattoo that survived, saying, “This is what they didn’t get.” (Link)
A motorcycle accident in 1997 left Alan Macias with a non-functional arm which he eventually had amputated. He now has an eye-catching “cut along dotted line”tattoo on his stump. (Link)
Nice message. (Link)

Great Pictures and good to see that people can laugh at themselves and their situations. Truly inspirational If we could all take ourselves less serious we would be way better off.

I’m amazed at the resilience of the human spirit. How marvelous, too, that even the loss of a limb or other body part can be met with such humor.
And to wtffff – you are an idiot.

I don’t typically respond to things that I come across on stumble but “love, pig” has to be THE most awesome thing I have ever seen in my entire life! As someone disabled myself (not amputee… yet) I tremendously appreciate the ability to find humor in the worst situations. Bravo!

WOW! these are some amazing people as an engineering student who intends to design prosthetic limbs for amputees i can only hope the patients i work with are as lighthearted and willing to see that life doesn’t end when a limb is lost. these people are awesome!

I think this is fantastic, it certainly makes an amputation look less scary.
