Doctor goes on TV sporting early contender for 2013's silliest tan

Yes, he actually went out in public looking like this: Dr Mikael Sandström appeared on Swedish TV on Tuesday with a case of Oompa Loompa tan so severe even Tan Mom would probably tell him to get out of the sun for a while. Presenters on the program "Nyhetsmorgon" dubbed him "Dr Ranelid" after Bjorn Ranelin, a Swedish author renowned for his overly bronzed appearance (basically, the Swedish Snooki), while viewers reportedly took great pleasure mocking him on Twitter. Sandström insisted his tan, a marked departure from his usual complexion (pictured right), isn't fake. He said he acquired it on a recent two-week vacation in the Caribbean. [Source]
