Ocean sex goes wrong as man and woman get stuck together

An Italian couple has just fallen victim to a medical phenomenon called penis captivus, while trying to have sex in thewaters of a Porto San Giorgio beach.

The International Business Times reports that the couple were caught out red faced as the water suctioned them together, leaving them in need of medical help to get unstuck.

They remained locked together, as a woman with a towel helped them walk to shore, where a medic brought them to a local hospital.

The woman was then injected with something to dilate her cervix and free her partner.

According to The Local, this is not the first time this has happened this year - as in July a Zimbabwean couple got stuck and needed the man's father to help pull them apart.

We report, you decide which is worse.
