What hell is it with people sueing large company's for vast amounts of money now-a-days? Recently not a day goes buy when I dont hear about some daft bastards either braking there leg on a uneven road sufface or getting hit on the head by some very strange object. Well I tell you why there doing it, its because they can, almost 70% of these rediculas court cases WIN. Take a look at some of these cases for example and try to guess if these are true or false.

Case 1
Martha Edwards took South Yorkshire Metropolitan Council to court after she was walking down her local street and tripped over a cigarette packet in high heeled shoes, she fell from an estimated distance of 3 inches and she severly injured her right wrist on inpack with the ground. She proceeded to sue South Yorkshire Metropolitan Coucil for £75,000. She also proceeded for a further £12,000 hush money because if the rubbish had been swept up like it should have been by the council she would have never had her accident.

Case 2
Marv Granzinski of Oklahoma bought a brand-new Winnebago motor home. On his first trip he join the motorway, set the cruise control to 70mph - and went into the back to make himself a cup of coffee. After the crash, Mr Granzinski sued Winnebago for not telling him in the handbook he had to stay at the steering wheel while the vehicle was on cruise control. He won £960,000.

Case 3
This was a terrible accident when a label loving teenage girl was severly injured by an Crocodile, still people blame TV, movies and computer games for violent act's but this incident was caused by designer clothes. Hannah Meiklem was camping out with her friends in Bolivia, South America when she just came back to her tent (after pissing in the bushes or something). When she got back to there camp site she realised her friends wasn't there and desided to creep into her sleeping bag which she thought was a designer and would be more comfortable because she'd payed more. So she crept into her best friends sleeping bag only to realise infact it wasnt a lacoste sleeping bag at all and was actually a real life crocodile. She survived but had been injured vey badly. Ms. Meiklem and the parents desided to take this further and settled an out of court deal with lacoste for $700,000.

Case 4
Convicted bank robber Michael Brodson broke his leg scailing a 40ft wall in a failed prison escape attempt in Ohio. He was awarded £12,000 - because the prison hadn't told him climbing a wall was dangerous.

Case 5
It was an ordinary day when this local fellow was sat up on his front garden wall admiring the usual passing by of the Kings horses and Kings Men as he watched the troops march back to the Kings palace he felt a brick move from under his shelled ass and slipped backwards onto the concrete floor. The victim was left in a bad shape". One of the kings horses who was at the accident scene told us this:

"Rumours have it that he was pushed but I say thats a load of bullshit because I saw the whole thing I saw the wall break before my very eyes and watched him go over backwards. I tried to keep a straight face and help him but I couldn't do anything for laughing, I know its not funny because he could have died but he was lucky.

We've hidden the identity of the Kings horse for legal reasons but without the help of this key witness Mr.H Dumpty would have never claimed anything form Bush Gardens - External Designs Ltd for poorly building his wall and causing his almost fatal accident.

Thanks to all the kings horses and all the kings men he's now making a full recovery.

Case 6
A council tenant in Wales tried to sue his local authority, claiming the work they did on his home gave his budgie asthma. He lost the case, but the council face a huge legal bill.

Case 7
Edward and Sherrie Skwarek both sued coffee shop chain Starbucks. Eddie is claiming £750,000 after catching his penis beneath the toilet set of a New York branch, wife Sherrie Skwarek also joined in on the claime and demanded £300,000 for the loss of bedroom fun.

Case 8
Harassed mother Kathleen Robertson broke her ankle tripping over an unruly toddler in a Texas store and won £470,000 - despite the fact that the child she tripped over was her own.

Case 1: False
Case 2: True
Case 3: False
Case 4: True
Case 5: False
