A tattoo-addict has smashed the world record for the most piercings in one sitting - enduring more than 4,500 during a gruelling eight-hour session.

Matthew Menczyk, 30, had 4550 surgical needles pierce the skin of his arms and back - breaking the previous record by an impressive 650.

Looking as if a layer of armour has been woven into his skin, Mr Menczyk fought through hours of agony and bleeding to claim the title of 'Most Surgical Needle Piercings in One Session'.

Body modification specialist Russ Foxx carried out the record-breaking session in Vancouver, Canada.

Speaking to Metro News, Mr Foxx, 32, from Vancouver, said: 'We decided to not just beat (the record)....but to destroy it.'

He added: 'It was a very long day, but we managed to achieve a current world record.

'The most painful part for Matthew was removing the needles. We were taking them out by the handful to be quick.
