I would freaking LOVE to get my hands on that. Peeling sunburned skin is one of my favorite things.

[–]peanutbuttermayhem 20 points21 points ago

It's like pulling the plastic covers off of phone screens.

[–]beezerz 25 points26 points ago

Or like when you put elmer's glue on your hand, let that shit dry, and peel it off like it was your dead skin.

[–]Concubicycle 9 points10 points ago

Shit, I'm not the only one!!! So that's uplifting...

[–]MrsMcD123 1 point2 points ago

If it weren't for body hair, I would cover my arms and legs in that stuff so I could peel it. Not quite as satisfying as dead skin but a decent substitute.

[–]peanutbuttermayhem 0 points1 point ago

Shave. Just tell everyone it's for science.

[–]G1az3d 9 points10 points ago

I'm exactly the same, it feels so good. Gotta get the biggest piece possible!

[–]mcskillz 4 points5 points ago

I hate when you get that piece that you think is gonna be THE ONE...then something, somewhere goes wrong, and it's the smallest flake ever.

[–]DarkWorks 2 points3 points ago

Ok, so get some baby oil, any old baby oil preferably Johnson And Johnson. Rub it all over your body in a think layer, stand out in the sun, or lay down whatever, and enjoy the peel. Don't ask.

[–]vipez 2 points3 points ago

can brown people do this ?

[–]firstlightlastlight 1 point2 points ago

I love it so much, so much.

[–]dizzi800 1 point2 points ago

I like the feeling of it coming off; more so than the act of peeling. It's like a breath of fresh air for my skin! :D

[–]MrsMcD123 1 point2 points ago

We could be great friends.

[–]dizzi800 1 point2 points ago

Forever tagged: Skinpeel buddy

[–]AelyviaLove 5 points6 points ago

Ewwww. You're almost more wtf than the link. O-o

[–]ftc08 16 points17 points ago

You are now RES tagged as "very low WTF standards"

[–]stuffybear 0 points1 point ago

I'm guessing you've never had a really bad sunburn

[–]worst_sexual_comment 81 points82 points ago

salutes * Major Sunburn.

[–]Diquebutt -1 points0 points ago

uggggggggggggh fuck that show.

You sure that ain't sprayed-on-latex?

more importantly, where do i get tiny bottles of sriracha?

[–]BlondeMerkin 0 points1 point ago

First thing I noticed myself

[–]RD_Is_Best_Pony 19 points20 points ago

This right here, is WTF. Not too over the top, not spacedicks stuff, just pure What The Fuck.

[–]NKarman 7 points8 points ago

Put it in the skin box! Save me from myself

[–]dotMov 18 points19 points ago

Oh yesh, this is a keeper.

[–]CarnivorousAvenger 0 points1 point ago

You Dutch are so evil...

[–]its_just_a_question -3 points-2 points ago

downvote because that was part of the austin powers movies one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen, and thinking about it still bothers me. AND I've been on the internet before.

[–]CheesesOfNazareth 5 points6 points ago

Seasonally the coastal Guido sheds its skin; scientists have yet to figure out the purpose of this behavior.

[–]killstructo 1 point2 points ago

I thought I saw a guido once turns out it was just an empty shell. Sort of like the real thing though.

[–]CheesesOfNazareth 1 point2 points ago

The shell probably had better conversation.

[–]Real_MikeCleary 8 points9 points ago

[–]chowder138 1 point2 points ago

That's what I do when I google something that I know will be scary and/or disgusting.

[–]TripperDay 7 points8 points ago

Dude is messing up. I peeled some big pieces of skin off my legs once and it was worse than the original burn. If the skin is moist enough to come off in a piece that big, it's not ready to go and the new skin is too sensitive, especially when it's already sunburned.

[–]krasniyMolotok 2 points3 points ago

HE'S MOLTING!

[–]the_viking 2 points3 points ago

hold on a minute! is that a tiny bottle of sriracha in the corner!?! amazing

[–]Squidgy88 2 points3 points ago

Your Black guy is evolving into White guy!!!!

[–]vanakka 4 points5 points ago

mmmmm... skin cancer...

[–]BitterNAlone 4 points5 points ago

It's not real skin. If you look at the exposed "skin" you can see the outline of a shirt collar with a little pink around the neck. If that were sun runes akin if sure the F wouldn't be dark brown when his skin is that light. Derp de derp

[–]josiahw 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, the skin underneath looks way too healthy.

[–]b_savvy 1 point2 points ago

Oh yesh. Yesh yesh yesh yesh. This is a keeper.

[–]LanceCoolie 1 point2 points ago

Why are they peeling it?! The skin is the best part!

[–]snarfHARD097 1 point2 points ago

peeling that off is going to feel AMAZING

[–]Fuckedfromabove 1 point2 points ago

Make a wallet out of that shit

[–]Black_Opal 2 points3 points ago

I'd definetly eat that.

[–]MateriaLLo 3 points4 points ago

I can stand gore, i can stand scat and fuck, even some insects...

But this.

This is overwhelming. My whole fucking body cringed when i clicked that link. Dead skin. The single, most disgusting motherfucker on this whole planet.

[–]longmover79 26 points27 points ago

So the fact that you breathe in shitloads of other peoples' dead skin particles every day doesn't bother you? Ever wiped your finger over a dusty surface? It's skin, mostly, and other crud. Feel some OCD coming on?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Big fucking deal.

[–]daniellem27 6 points7 points ago

I used to let my cat eat my sunburned skin peelings. She loved it!

[–]tubcat 4 points5 points ago

Well, I can stop commenting on the internet now, it appears that you've won rather decisively.

[–]sgtpandybear 2 points3 points ago

Defuq?

"Chinese guy with skin cancer"

FTFY

[–]JasonV3124 0 points1 point ago

I am going to be completely honest right now, at first glance, i thought that was a black guy with some weird skin condition. and now that i realize whats happening in that pic, it reminds me of this episode of spongebob in which sb and patrick get tans...

[–]spases 0 points1 point ago

man jerky

[–]alien6 0 points1 point ago

I have seen someone's dick mutilated. I have seen a man with his leg torn to shreds by god-knows-what. I have seen coroners' reports on motorcycle accidents with photos. I have seen necrotized this and gangrenous that more times than I'd care. I never screamed at internet gore and NSFL, but for whatever retarded reason this just made me yell out loud.

[–]onemantwohands 0 points1 point ago

This happened to me when i went to Miami and didnt wear sunscreen for 5 days....The worst part is waking up with skin everywhere constantly shedding.

[–]twiztedstudiez 0 points1 point ago

Happened to me when I went to Myrtle Beach for 2 weeks without sunscreen. Wasn't anywhere near as bad as the picture posted (if it's even real). My entire back was basically a blister and eventually it got so bad I was getting sick from the pain. The skin part wasn't as bad as trying to take a shower or putting a shirt on.

[–]onemantwohands 0 points1 point ago

ya i was literally a purple lobster. Everything hurt till i started peeling. Face was a horrible. my bald head was also very bad...looked like i had some intense dandruff

[–]twiztedstudiez 0 points1 point ago

My head wasn't that bad but I've had that happen to me. When I was in the military they basically shaved our heads, and I had forgot to put sunscreen on my head for a couple days. Later the top of my head was hurting and I kept getting headaches. Turns out my head was sunburn and I had blisters all over the top. To say the least, it was not the best time of my life lol.

[–]onemantwohands 0 points1 point ago

blisters!?!?! yowza!

[–]___eo 0 points1 point ago

Looks like he has a chink in his armor

[–]citrusfury 0 points1 point ago

So does anyone know exactly how bad sunburn has to be to guarantee/nearly guarantee skin cancer?

I know a guy who got burned really bad on his shoulder once, like, needing special prescribed medication bad and was kinda curious how much that may have affected his chances.

[–]ZuFFuLuZ 0 points1 point ago

This reminds me of Monkey Island 3.

[–]Senor_Wilson 0 points1 point ago

I wonder if he rolled it all up into a ball and ate it...

[–]RageComicsRock 0 points1 point ago

Look at the guys face sitting next to the bed.. Lmaoo

[–]211530250 0 points1 point ago

[–]myrightbuttock -1 points0 points ago

That's a keeper

[–]chowder138 -5 points-4 points ago

Is this a picture of a black guy's pigment being peeled off, or the worst sunburn of all time?

[–]MongrelNation -4 points-3 points ago

Anyone else smell peking duck?
