Ethan “Modboy” Bramble, once famous for his extreme body modifications—like tattooed eyeballs, a split tongue, and even cropped ears—is almost unrecognizable today.
The Australian social media personality built a large following by turning his entire body into a canvas of bold and controversial art. But everything changed the moment he became a father.
After welcoming a baby girl with his partner, Ethan made a deeply personal decision: he started the long, painful, and expensive process of tattoo removal—wanting to make sure he didn’t scare his daughter as she grew up.
Now, the once heavily tattooed skin is gradually clearing. Each session is grueling, but for Ethan, it’s an act of love. Fatherhood gave him a new perspective—one where his daughter and family mean more than any amount of ink.
His journey from body-mod enthusiast to devoted dad is a powerful reminder of how far a parent’s love can go—and how becoming a parent can completely reshape what matters most.
