Your from Brazil.

No.. I think that they are bluish.. I would guess that its the blood that is oxygen depleted, and it is just darker. Giving the vein a darker appearance

Arteries pump blood away from the heart, so the blood would be bright red with oxygen. I think all you can see is veins.

I have never been to the "bottom side" of the world. I am thinking that maybe you are different and have green blood..

my arms have blue veins and green. seriously. the blue ones are thinner and look deep. the green ones are closer to the surface.

i'm afraid to ask you where the vein you're talking about is.

Spock has green blood. You have blue blood. Turns red when exposed to oxygen.

Maybe you should cut back on the veggies.

I just read that there is no such thing as blue blood, it is just a myth. Dark red is the color when the blood is deprived of oxygen.

Except you can see blue veins I guess under your theory, the vein itself is what is blue and the blood is deep red?

Where's Bandaidwoman?
