Being the ‘wild child’ she is, Angelina has had a number of tattoos etched all over her body. The ones we know of are listed below, as many as possible with images (which you can click on to enlarge). She also likes to play with knives, hence the quote “You’re young, you’re drunk, you’re in bed, you have knives; sh*t happens,” and has caused some self-inflicted injuries, some of which are also listed below.
It is also true that Angelina has dealings with blood - including a pair of vials she exchanged with former husband Billy Bob Thornton ... see below.
 The Vials / Phials of Blood 
Much has been made of this topic and all for frankly no reason. Soon after their marriage, Angelina and Billy Bob Thornton swapped two vials each containing a few drops of each other’s blood, to signify their connection to each other, which they were to wear on a neckchain ... in theory permanently.
This would be somewhat more romantic if the blood were kept liquid, but reports suggest that the four drops in each vial were coagulated (dry).
Soon after their subsequent divorce, Billy Bob threw his into a fire while Angelina, apparently, “chucked hers away but doesn’t even remember where” as quoted from a news article, though there is doubt on these facts as later reports suggest they were both searching for the vials again.
