Area Man Burned in Tanning Bed and Confused For a Lobster


Bethel Student Matt N. was severely burned after entering a tanning bed for the first ever.  The intense heat rash that occurred thereafter was induced by the lack of pigment in Matt N.’s skin and lack of cooperation to the tanning salon’s support staff and their recommendations.  Tanning salon employee Naomi had this to say,”I told him to start at 5 minutes and build a solid base, but he had his own agenda.”  An agenda for a 3rd-degree skin burn others would say after seeing his hideously bright red skin later that day. 

Matt N. sought the help of aloe vera and other such lotions to cure the burn of his itchy skin but was forced to endure the pain for the better part of the evening.  When asked what part of his body was burned the most, Matt N. replied, “my ego.”
