People in Mexico get scorpions on their nails. It is not just the scorpion picture or paintings but baby real scorpions are being glued to the nails. The tiny baby scorpions are put on the nails after it has been killed with some bug spray. The artists use tweezers to put them on nails. The scorpions are dangerous and yet people are using them.
