British diver Tom Daley and some of his fellow Olympic competitors put the Olympic Village’s infamous ‘cardboard’ beds to a stress test
Olympic diver Tom Daley shared a glimpse at the infamous “anti-sex” beds, rumored to not be able to withstand sexual activity, upon his arrival in Paris for the 2024 Games.
Daley then put the bed’s strength to the test, jumping up and down and bouncing on his knees to see if it would hold up – which it did. “As you can see, they’re pretty sturdy,” he noted.Daley isn’t the only Olympian to test out the beds’ purported “anti-sex” qualities.
The 100% recyclable cardboard beds, designed by the Japanese company Airweave, made their debut at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, with some athletes looking askance at their introduction.
