Peter Cousins doesn’t regret anything about his recent adventures in America, not even the $250,000 medical bills he was hit with after a sexual encounter got him a little too excited. He was traveling the world with his partner Dawn at the time and ended up in Nevada working as chefs on a cowboy ranch.

It was during their off time that they decided to get a little frisky, leading Cousins down a road that would end up costing him. From The Telegraph:

The pair discovered a natural hot spring while out for a walk, so stripped off and jumped inside.

Moments after their tryst, Mr Cousins collapsed and suffered a heart attack – 60 miles from phone signal – forcing Ms Reed to run three miles to flag down a trucker.

Mr Cousins was airlifted to hospital and had a life-saving stent placed in his heart, but after a five-day stay was presented with a £165,000 medical bill.

Here’s how I picture this scene in my diseased brain:

Alas, reality was a bit more harrowing and things looked grim for Cousins due to the remote nature of his sexual encounter:

“We always used to sit in them and then one day we thought it would be romantic to make love in the pool. When I got up there were pains in my left arm and I just collapsed.

“We were miles from the ranch and even then, there was no phone signal to call anyone. I didn’t know if I was going to make it, we were in the middle of nowhere.

A trucker used his sat phone to call for help and soon Cousins was whisked away to Reno to have a stent placed in his heart and a $250 grand bill placed in his hand. This would cause most folks to have another heart attack, but Cousins took it stride and returned home to England for further treatment.

Sadly, Dawn stayed behind and the couple are no longer together. They’ll always have Reno, though, and the sex that nearly sent one of them to the great beyond (or darkness, if you’re like me). The memories and the bill are still there, but Cousins isn’t fretting it one bit:

“I haven’t been able to pay it off and although it’s always at the back of my mind, I have no regrets. Yes, 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.”

Good on you. Keep paying what you can and go on with your life. Just make sure you have Life Alert or something the next time you decide to ruin a hot spring with your bodily juices.
