Speaking to People, the Nature Boy said: "What I said was the truth, but I feel bad now that I said some of it.

"Ten thousand women. I wish I hadn't said that because of my grandkids."

The Tennessee-born icon has been married and divorced four times during his life.

Speaking to TMZ, Jeremy, who was nicknamed "The Hedgehog" said: "It's very difficult to get number like that that.

"Will Chamberlain and John Holmes got about 20,000, Will Chamberlain actually regretted saying it.

"But if you do the math, if you start having sex at the age of 14 up to the age of 68, and he still has to go to school, eat, sleep."

Let's actually take a closer look. Jeremy assumes Flair started having sex when he was 14, which is pretty young to lose your virginity. Flair's now 68, which gives him about 54 years of full-time sex. In 2014, Jezebel crunched the numbers on how long it would take to have sex 10,000 times (from the perspective of a female escort, someone who doesn't have to deal with a refractory period), and found that, given an average time of 5.4 minutes, it would take 3,333.33 hours of straight sex— 138.88 days — to get to 10,000.

That's a lot of hours — and you've gotta keep it in mind, because that leaves little time for anything else — but because we're looking at partners, not hours here, we have to break it down in a different way. 54 years of sex is 19,710 days. That means Flair was sleeping with a new woman about once every 2 days, which sounds possible for a celebrity at his peak (who doesn't have to spend time meeting, greeting, wining, and dining), but is unreasonable when averaged over a lifetime.
