What those tattoos on Rourke/Whiplash say (well, some of them)

So we've all seen the picture of Mickey Rourke as Whiplash - the one where we can see that his body is covered in tattoos. I was wondering what the tattoos said, so I asked my friend to ask his friend, who is from Russia, what she thinks they might mean. Here's what he came back with:

ok - its hard to make out - but this is what she thinks...

under the boat is the clearest - "will make me free" - but she said it is future tense and the phrase implies that many people "will make me free"....as in, the conjugation of the phrase...

the curved sentence on top of the boat, she said it could be many words so she isn't sure at all...the only word she can make out is the word "boat" which is the last word in that sentence - left side of his body, right side of the picture....

but right above what looks like "bro" in that curved sentence above the boat - as in, on the right side of HIS body (left side of the picture) are three letters that she says are common is a phrase used for praying - "save"...like saying to God "save me" - she said it is written on many crosses, including the one she wears....

then on his arm, above the strap (above the strap in relation to his arm - but "below" the strap in relation to us looking at the photo - as in, between the strap and the medal on his arm) - it says, "to live" - but she couldn't make out the other word on the other side of the strap....

then she couldn't make out what it says on his neck...

So there you have it (at least some of it)!
