Taking to Tiktok, Fox shared a video where she was talking about 'how kayakers use condoms.' In the video, she used a condom to repair the bumps in her canoe. A carbon mixture was initially put on the surface and it was later covered with a condom, to ensure a smooth finish to the repair work.

The athletes participating in the Olympics have been given a total of 1,60,000 condoms but they have been equally advised to not engage in intimacy and sexual activities because of the risk of spreading COVID-19. So, Fox found out an entirely different way to use a condom, something which is far far away from what it is originally meant for.

There was this discussion about cardboard beds being provided to the athletes residing in the Olympics village. These beds, also called, 'anti-sex beds' were said to not hold more than one person at once and some athletes, most popularly Irish gymnast Rhys McClenaghan debunked this myth by jumping on one of the cardboard beds to prove that they could, in fact, take pressure. These cardboard beds were provided keeping in mind the fact that they can be easily recycled after the competition ends.
