Tattoo U

See! I knew tattoos were bad for you:

A Brooklyn father getting a tattoo called "Last Rites" inked into his flesh passed out and crashed headfirst into a glass counter yesterday, killing himself, police and witnesses said.

Joaquin Laguer, 27, nearly was decapitated during the horrific accident inside Buzz Tattoo, an unlicensed parlor in East Williamsburg.

What service... a tattoo and a close shave!

I dunno, seems weird to me that the display cases were so delicate that someone fainting against them was enough to shatter them. Not to mention him fainting against them in such a way as to nearly sever his head.

I think it's more likely someone put his head through the display cabinet in s fight. Not that we'll ever really know for sure though.

I think the key phrase here is "an unlicensed parlor."
