Brazilian Influencer Dies In Tattoo Session... Just 45 Years Old...

Brazilian Influencer Dead After Going Under Anesthesia For Tattoo

Ricardo Godoi, the CEO of Godoi Premium Group luxury car business — who also boasted more than 220,000 followers on Instagram, is dead. The 45-year-old reportedly went under for a new tattoo… and never woke up.

A post on the Brazilian influencer’s account broke the sad news on Monday:

“Today we say goodbye to Ricardo Godoi, an incredible person who left his mark on the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing him. His joy, generosity and light will continue to be present in our memories and every story he helped build. May he rest in peace. Our condolences to family & friends.

What happened?!

According to multiple reports, Ricardo commissioned a tattoo studio for a new back piece, which was to be done at a hospital in the Brazilian state Santa Caterina. There, he underwent general anesthesia to be out while getting inked — we guess because this was going to be such a lengthy and painful procedure.

But before the artist could even get started the influencer reportedly suffered a fatal heart attack. How awful… According to DailyMail.com, the owner of the tattoo shop, who was not named, said:

“What happened was that, at the beginning of the sedation and intubation, he went into cardiac arrest. That occurred before they even started tattooing him. He was quickly checked and a cardiologist was called in to try to revive him, unfortunately without success.”

Ricardo was apparently a “great friend” to the artist, and the studio “deeply regrets” his tragic passing.

Is it possible the sedation caused the cardiac arrest? A police investigation has since been launched.

So, so sad. Our hearts are with Ricardo’s loved ones. Rest in peace.
