Hey, everybody, we’re all gonna get laid!
2024 Olympics stars are debunking the notion that the Paris beds are as “anti-sex” as first believed, showcasing the beds’ sturdiness in videos featuring physical activities that did not include the actual deed.
Australian tennis Olympians Daria Seville and Ellen Perez, along with Irish gymnast Rhys McClenaghan, are among those who spent time testing the stiffness of the beds, as captured by news.au.com.
The pair of Aussies’ activities included: resistance band high knees on top of the bed, doing the throwback “Worm” dance move, squat jumps, step-ups and cannon balls from the floor onto the mattress and, of course smashing — pun intended — a tennis racquet onto the bed, along with volley practice.
The Olympians laughed throughout the clip while showing how the twin-sized bed made of polyethylene held up.
For McClenghan, this actually marked his second time testing the “anti-sex” beds, having done so previously for the 2021 Games in Tokyo.
“When I tested them last time, they withstood my testing,” McClenghan said in the video. “Maybe I wasn’t vigorous enough, though.”
The gymnast then conducted his experiment by doing high knees, rolls, jumping, belly flopping and handstands on the bed before coming to his conclusion.
“Nope, they pass the test,” McClenghan said. “It’s fake — fake news.”
These cardboard Olympic beds have been labeled “anti-sex” after debuting at the 2021 Olympics and earning poor reviews from the world’s top athletes — who are known to have quite active sex lives, so much that organizers hopes to have 300,000 condoms available in France.
“Beds to be installed in Tokyo Olympic Village will be made of cardboard, this is aimed at avoiding intimacy among athletes,” American runner Paul Chelimo tweeted on July 16, 2021.
“Beds will be able to withstand the weight of a single person to avoid situations beyond sports.
“I see no problem for distance runners,even 4 of us can do😂.”
Airweave CEO Motokuni Takaoka, whose company designed the beds, downplayed the idea of the beds being designed to prevent intimacy.
“Sex is sex, whether it’s on our mattress or somebody else’s,” Takaoka told the Japan Times. “We just wanted to create a mattress that is stronger than normal mattress. We’re only focused on sleep; we’re not concerned with anything else that happens on the bed.”
