For those men concerned about their manliness they can
now take out £1m worth of insurance - on their chest
hair.
Lloyds of London has come up with the policy after an
unnamed celebrity approached them.
But there are restrictions and hairy chested men
should read the small print.
It provides men with cover of up to £1m for permanent
loss of chest hair caused by accident.
But it does not cover loss though illness or hair
which simply falls out, The Daily Telegraph said.
Usual omissions such as loss through war, invasion or
revolution are not covered neither are hunting on
horseback or hang-gliding.
Fire-eaters are also excluded.
Claimants must prove loss of 85% of chest hair
verified by two independent experts.
The cover was drawn up by Jonathan Thomas, of Lloyd's
managing agency Creechurch, which last year insured the
taste buds of Angela Mount, the senior wine taster at
Somerfield supermarkets for £10m.
Mr Thomas told the newspaper: "It is the oddest I can
remember." |
