Irish gymnast’s video proves ‘no-sex beds’ at Olympics are a myth

There was some talk recently that the beds at the Olympics were specifically designed to discourage sexual intimacy among athletes in the Olympic Village. One gymnast disproved that notion.

American track-and-field athlete Paul Chelimo went viral over the weekend for sharing photos of the beds at the Olympics in Tokyo. Chelimo described the beds of “made of cardboard.” He suggested the reason for this was to cut down on athletes getting intimate with each other.

Beds to be installed in Tokyo Olympic Village will be made of cardboard, this is aimed at avoiding intimacy among athletes

Beds will be able to withstand the weight of a single person to avoid situations beyond sports.

Well, Irish gymnast Rhys Mcclenaghan called B.S. on that story.

Mcclenaghan posted a video on Twitter of himself jumping on the bed to prove it can withstand heavy-duty action. In the video, Mcclenaghan called the “no-sex” talk “fake news.”
