A woman was left regretting (well we assume she regretted it) her sex session in the stairwell of her apartment block after her head became wedged in the railings.

The 46-year-old apparently got her head stuck after she and her boyfriend decided to spice things up and have sex in public.

To make matters worse (and yes they could get worse), her other half disappeared leaving her naked, on all fours and stuck in the railings.

Some reports claim that the woman called the authorities herself while others claim it was a neighbour who phoned the emergency services.

Either way they turned up at the woman’s apartment, in the Russian city of Lipetsk, and managed to cut her out.

Alexey Dotsenki, an emergency services rep, told Pronews48.ru: “In all my time working as a rescuer, I don’t recall any incident like this one.”

Speaking of which there is a lot one can learn from this, we’ll call it unfortunate but some might think it’s a funny, incident.

They are as follows: keep your sexual antics to the privacy of your own home, always keep your clothes within arm’s length and never have sex with a man who is likely to run away when you get your head stuck in the railings of a stairwell.

The emergency services were called when the woman became stuck.
