Insurance Claims
Unusual — Odd
“Life la one damn thing after
another," Mark Twin is thought
to have said.
Or was it the guy who was
thrown through a window by an
elephant?
Or the hunter whose false
teeth were stolen by a wood
chuck?
Or one of the many other
people whose weird cases were
among more than 18 million in
surance claim payments hand
led by Aetna Life A Casualty
in 1972?
Consider the West Virginia
man who planned to spend a July
afternoon watching a circus pa
rade. He was innocently indul
ged in this American pastime
when an elephant reached into
the crowd of onlookers. Before
anyone could say “peanuts,"
this spectator was hurled, like
the man on the flying trapeze,
through a nearby store window.
Consider also a Newburgh, N.
Y. man who went hunting with
a smile, only to have his ad
versary get the last toothy
laugh. Leaving his false teeth
on a table, the hunter re
turned to the reality that a
woodchuck tad made away with
the choppers.
