TATTOOS & MAGIC - A Journal in my Skin
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Tattoos are my journal. A timestamp. A map. They act as mementos. Reminders of things, people and places that I can never escape. The good, the bad, the ugly; they are all a part of me.
I hope you guys enjoy this video, it was a lot of fun to make and probably the most personal video I have ever done. Thanks for watching.

Tattoos don’t always need a story, it’s ok to get one just because you like it. The words “tattoo” and “regret” end up together a lot even though I could never see myself ever regretting a tattoo. Even if you don’t like it in 10 years, it still represents a part of your life. Remember, you only live once.
Well until you realize how shitty it is and it takes up some good real estate that you would like to fill with something more important/meaningful.
@@alexbarcovsky4319 There is such a thing as cover ups, and if you’re brave you can get them removed although I’ve heard that’s really painful. What I was mainly talking about is that when I talk about getting a tattoo I constantly hear “You’ll regret it when you get old…” except when I ask older folks about their tattoos I’ve never heard one say that they regret or wish they had never gotten them.
@@kiriken1968 Interesting, Ive heard from many people 30+ regretting, covering and removing their earliest tattooos. Maybe around 20-30% of them actually.
@@alexbarcovsky4319 Thats pretty interesting since I’ve had the opposite experience. Just goes to show that there is many different people with different experiences with tattoos. I can imagine people who got the name of maybe their ex or maybe the tattoo simply didn’t turn out how they thought it would be would be upset or regret it. But it seems Chris has thought out his tattoos and they seem well done. I know I personally wouldn’t just walk in somewhere and just get one, although I know people do that. I’ve been researching artists and styles to see exactly what I want.
yess!! it took me some time to get out of that mindset of “will i like this 10 years from now” even if it’s something i wouldn’t get 10 years from now it’s still something i loved when i got it
I always wanted tattoo's on my fingers but sadly enough I can't do it with the career I'm focusing on.
The whole world just needs to get rid off the tattoo taboo.
Donquixote Rosinante VC literally just do it
I have a sleeve on one arm and a few on the other. I worked directly for a high-level executive of a tech company right out of college. Nobody cares. Don't let life dictate what you can and can't do. Do what you love. The right path will find you.
Donquixote Rosinante VC .. yeah, the hands, neck, and face r still a little dicey...
@@kramer1372 That is true. However, I think it depends on what the subject matter is. I would say no face at all what so ever or neck. But I have a guy I work with now who is a high level software engineer at my company and he has the letters of your resting keys when you type tattooed on his fingers.
Ben Corbett .. ha, nice...

"Fernweh" stands for the german word for "wanderlust", which is also a german word xD
Flying Ruffy yes, but Fernweh is kinda a different thing. Wanderlust (wanting to wander / explore) is the need to go somewhere and Fernweh is well, as he said, being homesick of a foreign country or the distance (Ferne). I‘m German so i hope I explained it correctly but anyone can correct me if they want to!
Wandern = hiking
Lust = joy or desire (in this context)
So wanderlust describes a desire to hike or a joy taken in hiking.
It can be used interchangeably with fernweh but honestly it depends a lot on the context.
Wanderlust closely related to a desire/joy to be in or hiking hrough nature.
Fernweh as stated above is pretty well described as the opposite of being homesick, homesick in german is Heimweh. "Heim" translates to "home" ans "weh" to "pain" or "suffering".
So "fernweh" = "distancesick", "heimweh" = "homesick"
One could say being sick of being home. A desire to travel and explore distant or new places.
But fernweh does not related to nature, hiking or movement necessarily like wanderlust does.
It's more a desire for a change of scenery to what you're used to.
So it might be a city trip without much walking.
And even if your walking all day through the city you wound describe it as hiking and also wanderlust wouldn't really apply to the desire to have a exploring walk through NYC.
But Wanderlust will apply to exploring the rocky mountains even though your living in Colorado and do so a 40 minute drive from your home in an to you familiar area.
Wow I never seen someone with tattoos that every single one of them is well thought out and has dope meaning to it 👌🏼🔥👍🏼👏🏼
Besides the blue skull lol
Beautiful art. The fact that there’s some that you won’t talk about makes them that much more meaningful. Great vid and great ink
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS! YOUR TATTOOS ARE AWESOME!!
I totally agree! Stories behind tattoos are so cool. BTW I just started a magic youtube channel do you mind checking it out?
@consistency 14 wtf?
As someone who has always loved magic and is currently curating a collection of tattoos it is very cool to see someone who has some serious thought and stories behind their tattoos, great video!
It is the most open-hearted video I've ever seen. My god dude, really dope, I'm really happy to know something more about you, except for the magic part. Fenolftalina!
Love how every tattoo has a good story or real meaning behind it for you. too often people get things for no reason and regret it. thanks for giving us more of a glimpse of your heart in your skin.
You don’t always need a meaning for a tattoo
totally shared this with my kid. she's young and getting into ink too. big on symbolism. your stories are great. thanks for sharing
Madness.
Daniel Madison I can't believe no one replied
hey danny boy :P hows it m8?
It would be fun to know about your tattoos as well but i know u dont do such videos so
Daniel Madison PICTURES WORK TOO
Your turn, D.
I love the Momento Mori tattoo so much, it's a dream of mine to get that tattooed on me some day, I've always struggled with being too anxious to do things and always taking the back road out of fear, kinda like the song "waving through a window" and I love the the message of "you're just a mortal, you're gonna die so do whatever the fuck you want
Make it so .
I think the wanderlust and momento mori where the ones that related to me the most. I'm a person who constantly has the want to see new places and live in places I've never been to before, and one who travels because I know this is the only life I got. Thank you for the video I loved it!
love how every tattoo represents something so beautiful
The most emotional video you ever made and that’s why we love you and whoever made those beautiful tattoos is a really talented one. I love that every tattoo has his own story, mine don’t (but I never regret and never will).
Could you make a Q and A video? Here are my questions: Do you regret any of your tattoos? How much time do you put into a routine or trick before you perform?
I love how the font for your word tattoos compliment the aesthetic style of your other tattoos!
love how there's a story behind every single one of your inkpieces. that last one of the logo looked sharp, great work!
the description/beginning sentence is exactly what i'm feeling. i will not regret them later, because they remind me of something i once was passionate about
Overall my favorite video so far. Shows you more human and integrate as ever. Props to your vibes dude
I’ll never criticise someone’s tattoo (maybe a little depending on the tattoo) but I love and have huge respect when people get tattoos that have stories behind them. Especially when they have so many. Appreciate the tattoos a lot mate 👍🏻
i want a lot of little tats like this
Bro, you have inspired me...Your story, or stories for that matter are told in such an iconic and artistic way. Your tattoos are so simple yet complex but their meaning are so clear because you really don't have to think too much into how to express yourself. I just recently got my first tattoo and seeing your video has really inspired me to look more into myself on how I can visualize my personality through this art. Thank you for this!
Man... This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing this
Very aesthetic tattoos. Which is a rare thing nowadays.
“I don’t know what that says about me, but I like it.” 😂
I think it is so beautiful seeing other people falling in love with words and different languages. I'm German and I never thought of getting any German word tattooed. English just felt more natural to me. But your 'fernweh' tattoo really reminded me of the beauty of my own language.
We tend to underestimate our own culture and overindulge in the english / western / modern culture presented in the media.
This video was so beautiful. It has so much meaning to it, pure magic
Loved your tattoo that spelled love upside down!
Ended up doing one, but changed the suits on the 3 and the queen. Looks amazing!
Btw your videos are awesom,! keep it up!
Cheers from Sweden!
man i could never sit down and explain most my tattoos. when people ask i just tell them that i sketched most of my own tats but they don’t necessarily mean anything deeper- they usually look at me like 🤨
i just love having another artist transfer my own art onto my skin. it’s an experience all together, and it even helps me step out of my shell in public bc ppl will comment on my tattoos and shit
art is art is art
Your tattoo placement is dope.
I love how all of your tattoos are so different and don't necassarily have a relationship to one another but, they manage to flow so nicely and look so aesthetically pleasing! They tell such an amazing story 😊
Where did those mini-series where you explained every story behind your tattoos go? ( I think it was called ink stories)
You are literally the most dedicated and amazing youtuber ever. Your editing skills, your planning, your creativity and your music are amazing. You are a freaking magician inside and outside RUclips. Greetings from Colombia
"fern is an german word for wanderlust" well both words are german^^
+Jonas Oja fernweh is one word
oh sorry i miss typed :P i meant "fernweh" and "wanderlust" (wandern means to hike in german)
Jonas Oja doesn't it mean " lust to wonder " idk correct me if I'm wrong
"Wanderlust" literally means to be in the mood to go hiking but is used to describe the desire to travel the world or the desire to be in a far away country just as "fernweh" :)
Fern means distance
very very cool. most people don't understand all the meanings and just see ink. very inspiring.
Cool video. Really interesting content and the way you put it together with the backdrop of getting your newest ink made it really riveting. Thanks for sharing Chris!
That cool water hitting the skin after it's been worked. That's an amazing feeling right there.
This is the best tattoo video I've seen! Thanks!
I've been waiting for this video for a really long time. It's always a pleasure to get an insight into what your tattoos mean; tattoos are always super personal, and like you said it's the good and bad.
Do a meet up in southern Germany!
I AM SO STOKED THIS CAME UP ON MY FEED. I know its an old vid but ive been waiting for this for months
dude wtf i always tought that the moth was a reference to ,,cicada,, the world most hard internet puzzle.
I actually took my first tattoo because of you, I never had a clear vision what kind of tattoo I would like to have but I always wanted one. And seeing you with a lot of diffrent kinds of tattooes all separett but it clearly showed that every single one had a meaning to it. And so I thought what is it that I hold dearest to myself and if that will be something important for me when I'm old.
Am i the only one who always hears about the 52 but doesen't know what it is? cool video man!
I think its from "52 reasons why I love you" and the fact that there's 52 cards in a deck (excluding the joker), which sometimes they use blank cards ( 52 in total) to write those reasons. Pls correct me if im wrong as Im not to clear about this as well
the 52 is a group of magicians that are strictly invite only and each have a tattoo of a card suit and number on their fingers - Ramsay's is the four of spades. the52.co.uk/
That's so cool! What happens when they surpass 52?
I guess it bcomes 53 reasons why I love u. lol or how many u want. U can just add more blank cards lol
Matthew Osko What if a 53rd person comes? They get a Joker or something lol.
It is awesome to hear what meanings are behind those tattoos and it just shows what it is all about. Sometimes people see tattoos and are quick to judge, thinking "There is no meaning behind it, you are going to regret this" etc. I guess everyone with tattoos has heard something like. For example I got tattoo above my right ankle which says "TORN" and underneath there is an arrow pointing to my ankle. This seems like a pointless tattoo but it isn't. I love basketball, I love playing it, I love watching. I play basketball for almost 10 years now and hab a couple of injuries. I tore my ligaments in my ankle 4 times (2x right, 2x left) and one time it was so bad that the movement in my joint isn't a 100% anymore. It is not really bad but still. This tattoo represents my passion for basketball even though I probably won't ever earn any money or make my living with basketball but I still play with my shitty ankles and worn out ligaments because I love it. And this tattoo will always remind me of my passion for basketball and in the future when I'm too old to play, it will remind me how much fun I had and hopefully feel the passion again like I was playing. Also the next time I will sprain my ankle and tear my ligaments, I can go to the doctor and the diagnosis is already written on my skin, so that he only has to do the paperwork.. :D
8:08 you can see "9 3/4" from harry potter on the right
I always love it when people get their sleeves scattered. Absolutely stunning tattoos though.
How bout showing your "Your name" tattoo 😂
Only some would understand XD
The video would get flagged tho. :[
Nice to hear your tattoo story, I’m 21 and just started I got my knuckles top and bottom ones done and will continue to get more.
I m a big potter fan as well😁😁
That mermaid in a bottle tattoo is excellent all around!!
hey chris what Harry potter house are you in. I'm in slytherin
hey chris. i just wanted to say, i truly enjoy your videos. im a begineer, in cardistry, and you are the one guy i look up now for my pursuit in training my hands in this skill. thank you for posting and keeping it up. i would love to meet you one day. you are all about teaching the idea of this passion of yours, not just tutorials but the life style and insight into amazing people. cheers from Canada.
I think its funny how every tattoo has to have meaning for most people in order for them to get them, i have 11 tattoos and not a single one has meaning or a story behind it, they are all random drawings that i found on the internet.
thou hast earned my respect
@@kriaallison im glad there are people who get me
There are many people that have tattoos because they just like them.
why is it funny
I love Buster Keaton!! The General was hilarious!
what font is it used in your written tattoos? its an insane font
“He stole my font”-david blaine
That’s not how it works you don’t pick a font off of Microsoft word and tattoo it. And if your artist suggests that instead of drawing something up then you have a fucking lazy shitty artist
comic sans
That’s EXACTLY how I did my left forearm. I had the word ‘Philadelphia’ tattooed in a font I chose. ✌🏼
I don't know why this didn't come to me until just now. NO! I chose it before stepping foot in shop. I'm doing my own Led Zeppelin font I've been drawing since I was 18 to go across my back and hope to sit in March. ✌🏼🎄
Man i love seeing people talk about tattoos let alone another fellow magician. I love it man
Harry Potter team ♥
I have two HP tattoos and I want to get more!
Thank you for divulging such personal information. The Illusionist is my all time favorite movie. I recognized the orange tree instantly.
Those tattoos he won't speak of must be cult tats😂😂
You have book about that."Magic is dead".
I,m tattooing for over 20 years ,those hand tattoos are really well done .hands and fingers are not easy to do ..
The cards that read " 3AQ7" spelled love upside down is something I really want, reminding me that at the start of my life I was giving a choice and giving chances, I like the thrill of things and I like living on edge this has caused me a ton of loss and a ton of failure in my life, there for I would get them in cards preceiving gambling, I don't have much to loss so I give my all,I like gambling and playing my odds but in the future I hope I have played my odds and cards well enough resulting in where I would be at in my future I would look at my wrist (placement of tattoo.) and be reminded the things I had to do to be where I'll be at years from now and that will either again be success or failure. (3AQ7, LOVE.)
3 years later I got 4 tattoos and this is not one of them hahah.
Wow your soul speaks through you when you talk, that’s amazing! Love the tattoos, thanks for sharing.
Tattoos and magic have something in common, they tell a story about the person. It's all about telling what you've been through
Camilo Iribarren You could say that about almost anything
Through all the ages that I've been watching chris. People say that when youre early he will reply. May the legends be true
+Dayne Yu tru
Just as I was liking your Instagram post the notification to this video came up😂
Amazing I have the same mindset that each tattoo is a memory or journey it's great to here it from someone else. Thanks Chris
Interesting dude, i really liked the “memento mori” concept...
On the subject of the Thurston tattoo - that little devil has some other classic magical history to it! Also referred to as an "imp," some of the most famous depictions of this little guy show him whispering into Harry Kellar's ear in lithographs from the late 1800s. Thurston adopted a similar image from Kellar (who taught him and toured with him). Even August Jansen (Dante being his stage name) used the theme in his advertising through the '30s and '40s. Other notable uses of the image? Ricky Jay had at least one poster with the motif, very closely imitating Kellar's iconic image. Yay for magic history and the art related to it! :D
The bird tattoo on your hand is dope
i also loveeee diagram looking artwork all black and white like the biological or botanical journals of scientists, i agree with the working at night as well. I feel like it's when i can paint and draw the most because i'm undisturbed and can be sad, angry in solitude and express that in my artwork without the peeping over my shoulder and I feel i'm wasting daytime. I really love skulls too and will have one on me soon enough
Very symbolic
Thank you chris! I know it can be hard to explain all the tattoos that you have or some are to meaningful. This was a beautiful video and i greatly appreciate it.
The real question here is, is that swallow African or European?
Love this
Somalian
damn all your hand and finger tattoos are so clean and bold, nice
This was amazing
I could listen to you talk about your tattoos all day... Your descriptions are inspiring... We share a fascination with skulls and what they potentially can represent. I think you need to add some dragons to your collection ... Your strength, bold personality and willingness to protect your loved ones works perfectly with the magestic dragon.
Fernweh is a German word for Wanderlust haha oh well
love your stuff so much chris these videos that you make,make me want to learn magic even more every time I watch.You are such an inspiration to me.Keep up the good work.
there we go from the FB photo I was waiting for this video
btw #RamFam where u at??
I love this video reminds me of me every tattoo I have has a meaning
Chris i gotta say I'm fairly new to the channel but you got me hooked into magic and cardistry just the vibe you gave off on your first video I stumbled on and I've been hooked on this ever sense I bought a bunch of books a bunch of decks that' I've seen you use and you have just helped me find a new outlet and something that I know I can always have to turn to my hats off to you I really do respect everything you stand for and what you are doing here thank you!
love you bro.. stay safe
+Johnny Nobody ♥️
I dig the sword through the skull from the top flap of the monarch deck. hidden unless you remove the tuck seal.
What is the #the 52
I think its from "52 reasons why I love you" and the fact that there's 52 cards in a deck (excluding the joker), which sometimes they use blank cards ( 52 in total) to write those reasons. Pls correct me if im wrong as Im not to clear about this as well
Ragnarok the first I looked it up and it says that it's some kind of magic community that is by invite only and each magician gets given a card to be
The website is called "#the52"
I see. thx for the info
@ragnarokthefist kinda misterious
well almost all magicians are mysterius
I came for the tattoos and I left with so much knowledge lol I love it
wow i’m blown away you are so interesting
I wouldn’t have even dreamed of tattoos on my hands being younger, but now it’s just normal. I’m glad I was born when I was , as know I’d have covered myself in tattoos if I was young today.
Says he's not a villain and then the next tattoo is the deceiver. Yeah, safe to say he's not to be trusted.
By far my favorite video from you. You opened your journies to us and I love it!
who else is watching the and also reading the comments
PranKoy nope i liked the video so i watched it
The 3A07 card one upside down is love, is clever
What can I use when I have no money to film with a camera?
Kouichi Seo Magic a mobile phone
Extremely dope. I love them all and great explanations and meanings! I have some similar ones as well. All of mine are pretty much “traditional” pieces. I feel the exact same way though I wear my heart in my skin and yes I have my heart on my sleeve!
P.S. watching your tutorials had gotten me back in to wanting to learn the art of slight of hand. I bought Bobo’s and some accessories and will be practicing all the time. My son loves magic!
Verstehst du deutsch ? :D
Ich mag deine Videos ;)
Ich verstehe deutsch, aber nicht so viel
er spricht deutsch, ist auch in deutschland geboren
Love how no one was curious about the society of the crossed keys tattoo you have! awesome meaning btw hard to find research on it...
is that a real thing or just a wes anderson reference?
this video finish at 10:27
Awesome video, man! Love the stories behind every picture you have on your skin. Also, the amount of wisdom you have in you is phenomenal.
