It’s a foolish claimant who takes on Supermacs, bizarre that they refused to look at the footage also…
No acting awards for this one that’s for sure.
Don’t think she even made contact with the hoover 😂
That is the most staged fall ever.
She looked up, saw the hoover, deliberately changed course from walking directly out the door to walking down the lane with the hoover in it, and then elaborately ‚fell‘ over the hoover while carefully not stepping on it at any point.
The usual suspect’s
Judging the book by it’s cover.
Her looking at CCTV, clearly deliberate.
How is she going to survive outside? With all those kerbs, bins, dogs, children, etc?
Dear God, I think the Oscar can go to someone else this time
The video is perfect.
Spots hoover
Pauses
Goes backwards slightly and adjusts path
Goes long way around for no reason
Carefully steps through gap between handle and hoover
Hits the deck without ever touching it
Looks around immediately for attention
Holds back showing “pain”
Chancer.
For 1% of the population this group have 30% of personal injury claims in ireland
„Wholly distracted on her phone“ wasn’t why she fell at all but at least the judge made the right decision
What a scumbag.
Not a big fan of the Judge’s reasoning there. Contributory negligence should have reduced the payout, not dismissed the claim. It was negligent to leave the hoover there and it could have easily caused injury. If the judge thought it was staged he should have said so instead of praising the person for being honest.
Head like a robber’s dog on her.
She has a bright future playing soccer
Different people but it’s always the same faces.
Can we have actual punishment for these cheating cunts? Is that not remotely possible no?
It’s always the ones you most expect.

Didn’t her brief have a look at the video before proceeding further?
Thought she was gonna clean up!
Interesting fact!
Pat McDonagh got so sick of insurance companies paying out on bogus personal injury claims that he decided to insure himself.
He has won heaps of cases over the years.
Insurers in Ireland just settle, or pay out and pass the cost on to their customers, which is a load of bollocks.
Why does Supermac’s seem to get targeted the whole time?
This kind of behaviour should carry serious consequences beyond just covering the costs. It should be treated as a crime in its own right – essentially, it’s a form of theft and fraud.
I fell in a pharmacy once. There was a big wet floor sign, but I was in a world of my own. It was the morning of a wedding and I was flying around getting sorted. I was on my phone ticking off the „pick up eyeshadow palette“ task when both legs went from under me and I took an awful hop off the floor. I. Was. Mortified. I got up, *I* apologised, and practically sprinted out of there. A pharmacist chased me down (probably thinking I was a nutjob like the lady above). She brought me back, made sure my palette wasn’t damaged and even gave me a tester for some tan drops. I don’t envy anyone dealing with the public but I know in that scenario I just wanted the ground to swallow me whole and I definitely didn’t want it plastered all over the internet lol
Even Neymar would be embarrassed by that dive..
I’m hoping she gets caught for at least her own legal costs..
How does it take so long so get to court?
The child she was pregnant with at the time is 7 years old now.
So wholly distracted she had to change her direction of travel and take the longer route once she looked at the door?
There should be cases brought against proven fraudsters. The evidence is *right there*.
What a scumbag, delighted she lost.
Will she have to pay any costs ?
Managed to hold on to her purchase and phone while „falling“. Should’ve won the case for that alone.
If you’re going to sue, you need to commit to the fall and make it look good. She bottled it with 2/10 dive.
Claimants like this should be forced to foot the entire legal bill
I slipped on a wet floor at the one in Tipp. Nearly broke me hole. Didn’t even enter my mind to sue because I was more embarrassed than anything. Shit happens, not everything needs to end up in court.
“Wholly distracted by her phone” is a euphemistic approach from the Judge (but very difficult to challenge)
Who pays all the court fees?
Is it just me, or does supermacs almost feel like a target for insurance claims? I’ve heard of supermacs dealing with insurance claims multiple times, but never any other random fast food chain.
Yeah I recognise that one, despite her name she’s one of our cultural beings.
Maybe if costs were awarded against these low lives welfare payments they’d think twice.
Why do we fail to implement such obvious and widespread acceptable things in society?.
I’m glad that the judge dismissed her claim, walking around with your head buried in your phone in public is idiotic. Hopefully this will set a precedent so that when people do this in front of vehicular traffic will be laden with at least 90% contributory negligence. I always yield to pedestrians when I am able but if you’ve got your head buried in your phone, you will get the maximum beeeeeeeeep for your stupidity as I fly by.
Good.
