Retired hairdresser Ray Boddington, 74, bought the pills from a friend after scoring with the 27-year old woman.

But as he left her apartment after a night of nookie, Ray was taken ill at a bus stop with major heart palpitations and an ambulance had to be called.

Tests showed Ray had a high blood pressure reading of 157/88, his heart was also beating at a high rate of 102 beats per minute - above the regular 60-100 beats.

The pensioner, from Salford, Greater Manchester - a former contestant on The X Factor - was allowed to stay in the vehicle until his heart rate went back to normal.

Ray told Daily Mirror: "The paramedics told me you shouldn’t take two and I want to pass on that warning that it can make you ill, it can make your blood pressure go sky high or you could have a heart attack."

Ray now wants to raise awareness of the potential dangers of Viagra, He told Daily Mail: “No-one has discussed the dangers of Viagra. It’s becoming a craze in every club and it is very dangerous."

He added that he took the tablets because "She’s a lot younger than me so I wanted to be able to keep up. I’ll not be doing it again, that’s for sure."
