At autopsy, tattoos are recorded as part of the external examination. An investigation was undertaken to determine whether negative messages that are tattooed on a decedent may indicate a predisposition to certain fatal outcomes. Tattooed and nontattooed persons were classified by demography and forensics. Tattoos with negative or ominous messages were reviewed. Statistical comparisons were made. Persons with tattoos appear to die earlier than those without. There may be an epiphenomenon between having tattoos and risk-taking behavior such as drug or alcohol use. A negative tattoo may suggest a predisposition to violent death but is eclipsed by the presence of any tattoo. Carson HJ. Am J Clin Pathol. 2014 Jul;142(1):99-103. doi: 10.1309/AJCPDOI32FWQLUEO.

In a way YES. The reason being that most people with tatoos love living life on the "fast lane" i.e indulging in non-beneficial activities like smoking,drinking,taking in of hard-drugs,gayism,lesbanism,sleeping indiscriminately and what have you. Ever wonder why people with tatoos don't donate blood? |
