Website of the YearA tattoo artist in the United States has gone viral after sharing a photo of the "crazy" ink optical illusion he created for this friend – and it will have you doing a double take.
The photo, posted on Instagram by Utah tattoo artist Matt Pehrson in April, has had more than 65,000 comments from people praising the work.
"Did a crazy thing on my friend Ryan today," Pehrson captioned the photo. "We have a lot left to finish on his dome. What do you all think of a piece like this?"
The black and white work uses shading to make it look like the man has a hole in his head.
