Josh, from Melbourne, Australia, had managed to hide the tattoo, which covers his entire forearm, for five days before revealing it to his mum just as he left for his gap year.
Josh's sister Holly, 21, who filmed the video, said: "Mum has never been fond of tattoos, so she's never happy whenever any of us get one. But Josh is the baby, he's the youngest of us, so it's extra tough."
Mum Emma said: "I thought it was fake at first but now I'm hearing it's not fake. The little sh*t!"
