Yahoo Lifestyle Romantic romp costs man $300,000
A tourist has returned from an overseas holiday with a bruised heart after a romantic rendezvous led to a $300,000 hospital visit.
Peter Cousins, from Dorset in the UK, was travelling with his partner Dawn Reed when the couple decided to make love in a hot spring in the middle of the Nevada desert.
But the excitement proved to be too much for Cousins, who had a heart attack.
“When I got up there were pains in my left arm and I just collapsed,” he said.
“I didn’t know if I was going to make it, we were in the middle of nowhere."
Reed was forced to run five kilometres to get help, eventually finding a truck driver who was able to call emergency services.
The 55-year-old was taken to hospital, where he had a stent placed in his heart.
At the end of his stay, Cousins, who had no health insurance, was slapped with a $300,000 medical bill.
To add to his heartbreak, the pair ended their relationship when Cousins returned home for treatment.
Surprisingly though, Cousins said he has no regrets about what happened.
“It was the most expensive sex ever,” he told SWNS.
“I will never be able to forget that I owe so much money, but it was worth it for the sex. It’s always worth it.”
