Default Tattoos and Judaism

Hello,

In Judaism, there is a belief to not get tattooed. There are few reasons behind this, namely during the Holocaust, the numbers were tattooed onto the concentration camp slaves. Another reason: Jews are suppose to leave the earth as they came to the earth.

I was wondering how many Jewish people have a tattoo or if you know of anyone who have a tattoo?
