The ‘world’s most tattooed person ever’, with ink inside of his bum and ‘vampire’ teeth, has no plans to stop his inking obsession – he has had body art put on his body twice a week for seven years

A man obsessed with body ink is “the world’s most tattooed person to ever live”, after spending almost a quarter of a million pounds on body art – and he is not done yet.

Jeremy Schofield, better known as Remy, has jet-black skin from years of getting work done, not counting part of his face and palms. The dad has inked over the art several times as well, to ensure the colour remains vibrant – with around 2,200 hours under the needle over the years.

In 2023 the 36-year-old forked a whopping £80,000 on brand new designs, and claims to have spent a total of £240,000 on his tattoos in total. His is currently 97% covered ink after booking in two inking sessions every week for the last seven years.

Remy has previously hit headlines after talking about his most painful ink – the inside of his bum – and has also shared how he got ‘vampire’ teeth installed. Among his collection of tattoos features blackwork, skulls, and an eye below his nipples. It appears no area is out of bounds for the dad who has a teenage son named Ivan and is married to his wife Sarah.

Remy, who is a former chef, isn’t planning on stopping anytime soon, and loves sharing his journey with over 60,000 fans on Instagram (@‌ephemeral__ Remy). “My body has been fully tattooed over [many times],” he said.

He added: “I am currently working on a full colour over blackout body suit and will be starting my back soon. I also believe I am currently the world’s most tattooed person to ever live – and by a very large margin.”

While he has no regrets, the dad is often subject to evil comments from trolls online who report his account due to his unusual appearance. Previously, Remy said: “Most of the work I am doing currently has widely been called impossible by ‘experts’ and I’m proving them wrong every day. Online people say all kinds of wild stupid things daily but in person, I never get anything, but friendly curiosity and compliments.

“In fact, my son’s friends are always excited to meet me, as most of them follow my TikTok, and some have even asked for an autograph and pictures with me. The only ‘hate’ I get is really just a creation of social media.

“I believe social media is making it easy for many people to be much more hateful than they’d ever dare to be in reality.”
