We love to think of our special sexy bedroom time as a highlight of life. Where we get to let loose with our passions and feel sexy and powerful and alive and (depending on the context) maybe wildly in love as well.

But of course, we know that not all that glitters is gold. And we know that it’s far too easy not to even glitter at all when it comes to getting down in the bedroom.

Check out these amazing bedroom fails, maybe you won’t feel quite so bad about your own.

That’s the kind of injury that’ll end a promising young career far too soon.
