Fire brigade tweets warning for couples inspired by 'Fifty Shades'

"If it doesn't fit, don't force it."

Valentine's Day seems like the perfect opportunity to break out the handcuffs and fulfill all of your Fifty Shades fantasies. But lovers take note. The London Fire Brigade has tweeted a message of caution to those who are planning on being adventurous in the bedroom.

With the recent release of Fifty Shades Darker, LFB has warned the public about people being stuck in objects like penis rings. The number of people calling in for being trapped in penis rings is on the rise. This years figures are already equal to the combined incidences from the previous two years.

The fire brigade's tweet is part of the Fifty Shades of Red campaign that was started back when the books were released. It's aim is to encourage people to think twice before getting themselves caught in a pickle (or a penis ring).

LFB has taken full advantage of the romantic holiday to reinforce that point and to remind people to make sure their smoke alarm is working.

In the words of London Fire Brigade Director of Operations Dave Brown, "If it doesn't fit, don't force it."
