Funny Insurance Claim - Little Mermaid Gone Wrong

When I was a just a young lad, about four years old, I was playing Little Mermaid in my dad's yellow truck. I was trying to re-enact the scene where Prince Eric valiantly saves Ariel from Ursula.


Somehow in my fierce struggle with the imaginary octopus, I managed to release the emergency brake in my dad's yellow truck.


Now the house that we lived in at the time was perched on top of a hill which my mother would always park at the bottom of. Consequently my father's yellow truck went rolling down the hill straight into my mother's car.


When my father phoned the incident in to his insurance company the agent on the line said, "20 years in the business and I've never heard a story like that."


And yes, they covered it!

What a tale Travis! I bet your family has never let you forget that funny auto insurance story either.


I take it you weren't hurt in the adventure? I hope you at least were able to save Arial. :-)


Thanks again!
