Olympians from all over the world are arriving in Paris and one of the first things they are doing is examining their unique sleeping arrangements.
It's not exactly glamorous, but they're finding out that cardboard beds aren't so bad after all.British diver Tom Daley shared a video review of the beds to his 3.2 million followers on Instagram. In the 30-second clip, Daley knocks on the cardboard to show its sturdiness and then jumps up and down on his Paris 2024 comforter without a problem.Irish rugby players Jordan Conroy and Harry McNulty further proved how stable the cardboard beds are with a hilarious Instagram video.
McNulty begins the clip by saying the beds will"supposedly" collapse if there's more than one person on it. Then, Conroy dives onto the bed and falls off before jumping back on.Australian athlete Tilly Kearns had a different experience for her first night in Paris. The water polo star said the mattress was"actually rock solid," even on the side that was supposed to be softer.
