Fourth of July might be our favorite holiday, filled with friends, barbecue, booze, and of course fireworks. Some people like to preserve Independence Day's celebratory mood with permanent ink. Unfortunately, this isn't always a great idea.
We wanted to celebrate today with The Worst Firework Tattoos Fails. Check out these hilarious tributes to the Fourth, and please, don't try this at home...

If you must get a Disney tattoo, at least go all in. These are saddest fireworks we've ever seen.

Placing fireworks near your ear isn't a good idea in reality or in a tattoo.

It's hard to tell if this is a firework tattoo or if this person actually got hit by a firework.

This tattoo is only acceptable for a 13-year-old girl. Too bad it lasts forever.
