Emily Morrison shark tattoo record

Entities: Discovery Channel · Guinness World Records · Emily Morrison · Shark Week · Venice, Florida

Overview

In late July 2026, marine biologist and dive‑tour operator Emily Morrison was officially recognized by Guinness World Records for having the most shark‑themed tattoos on a woman’s body. The first report on 25 July noted 106 tattoos depicting 71 shark species, fossilized teeth and a real shark tooth.

Three days later, on 28 July, the record was updated to 108 tattoos after two additional designs were added on camera during that year’s Shark Week. Both pieces highlight Morrison’s use of the tattoos as an educational tool to replace fear of sharks with fascination and note her appearances on Discovery Channel programming.

The two snapshots together track the incremental increase in Morrison’s tattoo count and continued media exposure of her record‑setting body art.
