Pensioner breaks world record with first tattoo

A great-grandfather has become a world record breaker by getting his first tattoo on his 104th birthday. Jack Reynolds was born on the 6th of April 1912 and became the world's oldest person ever to get a tattoo.

He's raised more than £2000 for charity in the process. His daughter Jayne says she encouraged him to get it done, and says he "never even flinched" .

Jack's achievement has been verified by Guinness World Records and it's not the first time he's done something amazing for charity. In 2014 he took part in the ice bucket challenge.
