Racing’s Duván Vergara Films Nine-Hour Tattoo in Surgical-Style Setting

His YouTube post turned a personal off-season ritual into a widely shared glimpse of the extreme preparation behind his new lion tattoo.

Overview

  • The forward documented a marathon session held in a room arranged like an operating theater, rather than a conventional tattoo studio.
  • His video shows three tattoo artists rotating on the large torso piece, with anesthesia used during the procedure.
  • The footage captures a prayer before the work began and reports that he went close to 24 hours without eating.
  • The finished design features a prominent lion centered on his chest, which he presented at the end of the video.
  • Coverage stems from his self-published footage during Racing’s break, with the squad due to reconvene in Paraguay on January 3.
