A tattoo artist in Bridgeport says he plans on breaking a world record next week by tattooing clients for more than two days straight.
The artist, who goes by "Ogre," works at Bridgeport Ink.
Ogre plans to tattoo clients nonstop for at least 62 hours, which would break the standing record of 57 hours.
He says he sees two advantages for him beyond being a veteran tattoo artist: he says he is a chronic insomniac and gets into a zen-like state when he applies his craft.
Ogre is inviting people to visit Bridgeport Ink at 2714 Fairfield Ave. beginning Thursday at midnight.
