Health concerns have been raised for a porn star recruiting 1,000 guys to take part in her world record attempt at sleeping with the most men in 24 hours.
British adult entertainer Lily Phillips recently began taking applications for the “record breaking event of the year”, which is currently set to take place in January.
The current record holder is Lisa Sparks, an adult film star who bedded 919 men in one day at a sex industry event in Poland back in 2004.
At the time, Sparks reportedly said she “had a blast but was in pain for a week afterwards”.
Phillips, 23, however has declared she’s been “in training” for several months in order to be physically up to the challenge.
So what physiological impact would sexual intercourse that lasts a total of 24 hours have on the body?
Sydney medical practitioner, Dr Zac Turner, who specializes in preventive health and wellness, warned that when “pushed to the extremes”, such activity could have a negative effect on the body.
“Sex, at its core, is a physically demanding activity that engages various muscles, the cardiovascular system, and the release of endorphins,” he told news.com.au.
“Done in moderation, it’s akin to a rewarding workout—promoting stress relief, cardiovascular health, and emotional bonding.
“However, when pushed to extremes, like a 24-hour sexual marathon, the physical and physiological toll can be severe.”
Common issues that can arise from repetitive sexual activity can include bruising, tearing, and general soreness.
“Consider it akin to running a marathon without prior training; overuse injuries, dehydration, and sheer exhaustion are almost guaranteed,” Dr Zac continued.
“Lisa Sparks, the previous record holder, herself admitted to being in pain for a week following her attempt—a clear sign of excessive strain.”
As part of her self-described physical training, Phillips has been having large quantities of sex and gradually increasing the numbers.
“I’ve done 101, and I’m doing 300 in a few weeks, it’s like a boxing match,” she told the The Reality Check podcast recently.
“I think I’ll get sore towards the end, but I think I’ve got the right determination just to be able to push on.”
However during the recent training session, Phillips admitted she found it “hard work”.
“Bonking 101 guys in 14 hours is so much harder than a 9 to 5,” she claimed.
“If you talk about a day job, as in going to the office, sleeping with 101 men is so much more taxing.”
Despite the known health benefits to consensual sex, Dr Zac warned that these would go out of the window if the act lasts for 24 hours.
“Sexual intercourse offers numerous benefits, including improved cardiovascular health through moderate physical activity, stress relief via the release of oxytocin and endorphins and enhanced intimacy and emotional connection with partners,” he said.
“However, in an extreme scenario like this, the risks overshadow the benefits.
“Fatigue diminishes the pleasurable aspects, and the constant physical exertion transitions from beneficial to harmful. While it might be a cardiovascular workout, it’s one likely to end with more harm than good.”
Other health elements that come into play include a higher risk of transmitting a sexual disease as well as psychological impacts, Dr Zac stressed.
“From a medical perspective, it’s essential to respect bodily autonomy and individuals’ right to make choices about their bodies,” he said.
“However, such extreme endeavors invite questions about intent, emotional well-being, and potential coercion.
“Social media has magnified these events, often prioritizing shock value over genuine health or personal growth.”
Phillips has been vocal about the practicalities of orchestrating such a feat, telling The Reality Check podcast she had a PA to organize the time schedule of the event as well as hiring security.
“The plan is to get a room with two doors. The logistics of this is insane,” she said.
“The guys who want to take part have to send a photo of themselves holding their ID, and my PA has to basically organize them into hour timeslots.”
She continued by stating it was “hard enough” to find the number of participants she needs to beat the current record, but said getting the task completed within the “time limit” was also another complication.
“I’m just hoping for a conveyor belt, they need to walk in the room and then leave,” she said.
Reaction to the plans, for which she is now actively recruiting men, has been strong – with many shocked by the stunt.
“All get 41.6 seconds each to do it in 24 hours,” one remarked.
“I’m tired just thinking about it,” another commented.
As many more stated it was “disgusting” and “sad”.
Others commented on the sheer volume of sex workers who have been going viral with these stunts in recent months, such as Gold Coast-based Annie Knight and Bonnie Blue, the OnlyFans star who had her Australian visa revoked over her Schoolies antics with “barely legal” 18-year-olds.
“Why, why, why have we normalised this insane behaviour?” one questioned.
“I think there’s bigger problem then the logistics,” reasoned another.
Sparks, known best by her porn name of Lisa Sparxxx, sparked controversy with her world record after the Polish government found out about the event and threatened arrest anyone involved.
“To be completely transparent with you all; this event is the one thing I regret doing in the 23+ years in the porn industry to this day. This was also the ONLY job I agreed to perform strictly for the money,” she wrote on her website.
She also revealed that during the stunt she was “so bored” that she ordered a Macca’s.
News.com.au has contacted Phillips for further comment.
