A Brit couple planning on a nice little sex game handcuffed themselves and then when things turned wrong had to rush to a fire station to get rid of the iron--all hot and embarrassed.
Simon Garvey, 29, and Katie McManus, 21, went red when the key broke in the lock and they realised they were stuck together.
The pair had no other option - they hurriedly dressed and trotted down to the local fire station where ten sniggering firemen cut off their cuffs.
"It was the most embarrassing moment of my life. What seemed like a funny idea when we were drunk turned into a nightmare," the News of the World quoted Katie, as saying.
Pub manager Simon had just succeeded in asking out Katie for their first date after fancying the barmaid for quite sometime.
He said: "I was really chuffed when she agreed to go out. But I never imagined it would work out like this."
The pair had a few drinks at the bar where Simon works before heading for his flat in Bury, Lancs.
Simon recollected: "We were a bit tipsy.
"It seemed like one minute we were chatting in the bar, the next we were back at mine ripping each other's clothes off.
"Katie is a great looking girl, and when I saw her body I knew I was in for a fantastic night.
