Forget the elevator, here it's all about the stairs!
Tattooing stairs works well for depicting the path to heaven, and this is the context in which they are most often used. Another popular design is stairs leading directly to a grand clock. Generally speaking, they are widely regarded as a symbol of life's obstacles that must be overcome to achieve happiness and peace of mind. If a stair tattoo carries this hidden message, it is even more likely to be chosen by people, because everyone likes their ink to have some significance.
