Somebody from Iceland doesn't look so attractive here in Florida. They quickly become lobster red. I saw a family like that this past weekend. Very pale pigmentation and really red from the burning sun. It was painful to see.

It's even more painful to experience. I'm pale Irish and experienced 3 layer burns...under a Michigan sun. I learned from that the hard way and use the sunblock when need be.
