No toss-up: Woman exaggerated injuries, judge rules

Christmas tree

A woman who claimed injuries from a car crash left her disabled was caught winning a Christmas-tree throwing competition one year later, and thus a court in Ireland dismissed her insurance claim.

The photo, which shows an athletic Kamila Grabska mid-throw on one foot and reaching forward as a five-foot spruce goes airborne, resulted in the court dismissing her $824,000 injury claim, according to The Independent newspaper.

Ms. Grabska claimed back and neck injuries from a car crash in 2017 prevented her from working and playing with her children, and had sued an insurance company alleging that her injuries put a stop to her normal life for over five years, according to the article.

The photo, taken in 2018 and featured in a national media, proved otherwise, a judge ruled.
