Naughty Thoughts

919 in 24 hours sounds like a lot, but it averages out to about 89 seconds per man. I'm assuming they would have needed a few breaks during the day, to eat and go to the bathroom and such, so let's round it down to around 60 seconds per guy. I wonder what their definition of "intercourse" is? If in order for it to count for the record, they only need to insert their penis then pull it out, 60 seconds seems rather generous.

And if someone is using their mobile during the deed, they're not doing it right! :D
