"I personally thought the sunburn was hilarious," he told Mashable. "I mean it isn’t often you can put a dent in your head like that."

He mentioned on Twitter that he couldn't touch his scalp for a whole day and it took about three to four days for the swelling to go down. Despite the pain, people couldn't resist poking fun (sorry).
