How about the fishing boat (Japanese IIRC). The insurance claim was that a
cow had fallen from the sky and gone through the boat, sinking it.
I liked this one:
A partially burnt burnt body was found by a search and rescue crew
after a forest fire. The body was believed to be wearing a
scuba-diving wet suit.
A scuba-diver had recently been reported missing having been scuba
diving in a near-by lake.
A fire helicopter with a massive water scoop had scooped up the diver
when collecting water from the lake and dumped the poor diver on the
fire.
Is there any truth to that ?
This tale ( as urban myth ) cropped up in the TV series CSI a while back.
