This is a special bed that's designed to break under the weight of more than one occupant.

Try not to think too hard about the differences in weight between the different Olympic athletes who are going to be sleeping in them. Or the implications of telling people they can't have sex because you personally would find it disgusting.

EDIT: scratch that, they're not anti sex beds: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/anti-sex-bed-2024-olympics/

I also would never think of simply putting the mattress on the floor to save breaking the frame. That would most certainly be against the rules.

That just sounds like a recipe for it to crumple if multiple people sit on it, or someone jumps into it, rather than gracefully climbing in.
