Mark Owen Evans inked his daughter Lucy's name 267 times on his back in 2017. This fetched him a Guinness World Record for "most tattoos of the same name on the body". 

Evans pulled this painful feat to "celebrate Lucy's birth, as well as to raise funds for the hospital which provided care for her in the following months," said the Guinness Book of World Records. 

This time he went a step further by getting 200 tattoos on each of his thighs. Evans deployed two tattoo artists who worked simultaneously on his thighs. It took a little over five and a half hours to get the pain inflicting feat accomplished.

Currently, there is no way for Threads users to delete their accounts without deleting their Instagram accounts. 

At the ‘TechCrunch Disrupt’ event, Michel Protti, Meta’s chief privacy officer for product, said that the social network is “working on launching the actual deletion feature of a Threads account by December”.

“Technically, it was extremely challenging to allow deletion of a separate Threads account without also deleting your overall Instagram account out of the gate,” he was quoted as saying. 

Meta paid “particular attention to ensuring the user could still exercise their deletion rights, by deactivating the account to sort of hide all content, setting it to private or deleting individual threads”.
