A woman's 'inspirational' tattoo has gone viral, but not for the reasons she might have expected.

The tattoo artist appears to have made a significant spelling error in the quote, which reads: "Stay strong - no matter wath happens."

An image of her back was shared on Reddit with the humorous caption: "Wath in the wordl." The mistake has left people in stitches, despite the unfortunate situation for the woman involved. After all, tattoos are permanent, so we want them to be as perfect as possible. Sadly, this wasn't the case for this poor lady.

The gaffe has sparked conversation among hundreds of people who can't understand how such a mistake could happen. Many were simply incredulous at the sight.

While some labelled it a "strange error", others struggled to comprehend it. But, everyone makes mistakes, right?

One person commented: "This has to be ironic." Another suggested: "Hold on let me offer a different perspective. Read the message. Maybe this was intentional and a bit of humour? Those Ps are horrible tho lol." A third responded: "I choose to believe that was intentional, if stupid."

Meanwhile, a fourth added: "Error aside, I don't see why you would tattoo the most boring, generic phrase on your body. I can't even call that a 'saying'; it's just a flat, vaguely positive statement."

The news comes after one man was compared to a 'stalker' after getting a 'foul' tattoo tribute to his girlfriend last year.

His tattoo artist revealed she inked on his girlfriend’s ‘bite mark’ in permanent ink over his bicep. Sharing the appointment on social media, Betty Zoo Tattoo in Copenhagen revealed how the process had worked.

In order to get the authenticity of the bite, the girlfriend was seen to wrap her chops around his arm there and then. The tattooist then drew over the marks before they faded and then set to work inking them onto his skin.

After watching the unusual branding, viewers flocked to the comments section to share their horror. One person wrote: “this is foul.” Someone else joked: “Plz tell me how you explained this to ur mother”. A third user suggested it was something Netflix stalker and serial killer Joe Goldberg would do, writing: “This has Joe Goldberg from YOU all over it.”
