TATTOOS & MAGIC - A Journal in my Skin
Ойын-сауық
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.

@@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.

@@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.

"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.

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!
Overall my favorite video so far. Shows you more human and integrate as ever. Props to your vibes dude
love how there's a story behind every single one of your inkpieces. that last one of the logo looked sharp, great work!
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 KZread. Greetings from Colombia
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).
totally shared this with my kid. she's young and getting into ink too. big on symbolism. your stories are great. thanks for sharing
love how every tattoo represents something so beautiful
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.
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!
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!
Man... This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing this
I love how the font for your word tattoos compliment the aesthetic style of your other tattoos!
I've been waiting for this too long ! And it's finally here !! Thank you !
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

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 😊
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.
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!
This is the best tattoo video I've seen! Thanks!
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!
Wow your soul speaks through you when you talk, that’s amazing! Love the tattoos, thanks for sharing.
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 want a lot of little tats like this
By far my favorite video from you. You opened your journies to us and I love it!
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.
Your tattoo placement is dope.

such a beautiful tattoo edit, keep up the good work chris!! this video is a peice of art man don't forget that i know how much effort can go into making a video and to see one done this well is awesome,
Do a meet up in southern Germany!
Just as I was liking your Instagram post the notification to this video came up😂
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.
it's kinda awesome that you're sharing all these things with the audience. i loved it!
This was amazing
Where did those mini-series where you explained every story behind your tattoos go? ( I think it was called ink stories)
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
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 m a big potter fan as well😁😁
Very symbolic
Amazing video bro, as always. I love that you have a meaning for your art. Some of the dopest tatt's I've seen bro!! Can't wait for another vid
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

Your tattoos are amazing! Like all of them! Love the meaning behined every tattoo,not just every day tattoo! So ,excelent! Love it!!
Fernweh is a German word for Wanderlust haha oh well
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.)

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
Immediately stopped whatever i was doing when i saw the notification pop up from my phone that Chris posted a new video :')
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.
