No, but I'm sure some survivalist guy invented the idea thinking it would be great fun!

That is just it. Is is the ultimate 'challenge'. For hardcore survivalist, if they are allowed to put together a kit of all the things they think they'll need up to whatever they can physically carry, you could drop them off in the woods and see them a year later, virtually no worse for wear. But to have almost no tools and no cloths, that is what separates the men from the boys.

Another couple from the show.

As you can see, they usually manage to fashion some very basic "clothing" very early on in the challenge.

That guy's tattoo is sickening. This country is beginning to look like a scene from Avatar - everyone looking blue. Man, I just really, really hate tattoos. Ugh!

And the view is great!

Me too. Unfortunately, I have friends in apo/pentecostal churches who have gotten a tattoo recently.

I agree. We were at a local home town event here recently, and there was an arts and crafts booth area set up in the park. From a distance, you could see there was a booth that was extremely busy, I mean, the line stretched all the way almost around the park. I was curious what was drawing so many people to this booth. When we got close enough to see what it was, I realized it was a tattoo booth with wash-off tattoos... with kids and adults both waiting in line for hours just to get this tattoo! Now that is crazy if you ask me!!!!

I've been thinking about what I would want for a tattoo for quite a while (not constantly, just off and on) and the only thing keeping me from getting one is that I cannot find, or even think of, a piece of art work that I would want on me for the next 40 years.

Having said that, some tats I have seen, both in real life and on some of the various tattoo shows are absolutely stunning!

I have to agree. I have seen some stunning tattoo art. The guy's tattooing on the referenced show is nothing close to art. Just not my style. His type of a tattoo looks trashy, IMO.

It's a lot like jewelry for me. I like to look at it, but I don't like wearing it. I bought a new Fossil watch and I never wear it. lol Of course, jewelry is prettier than a tattoo, but no doubt some of it is talented artwork.
