How do you think insurance would work if superheroes were real

“Yeah I need to claim on my car insurance”
”certainly. What happened”
”it got smashed”
”and how did it happen”
”hulk smashed it”
”but that’s what you said last time….and the time before that”
“well, you know what they say. Hulk smash”

premiums would be through the roof

All the insurers would have an exclusion clause in their policies, to get out of paying.

There is a whole film about this 😃 they wanted to put all the super hero's on a list so they had accountability

Soubriquet · 28/06/2022 16:01

Is there? That could be interesting to watch

Yes Avengers Civil war the world is annoyed at all the damage

These are the important questions! Brilliant @Soubriquet. Also, what's that film @Mrsjayy ?

We're in the middle of Marvel's Agents of Shield and I'm frequently wondering this.

Ah yes. I have seen that.

Currently watching Dr Strange multiverse which is what pondered that question

OP I love this thread! I literally think this every time I see such action sequences on tv/film.

Watch The Boys - ok so it's extremely violent and gruesome but it does touch on things like what if superheroes were monetised and part of a huge corporation. Compensation for collateral damage etc.

I’ve binged watched the boys over the weekend

completely and totally fucked up but I really enjoyed it

Was also going to suggest The Boys.

The Incredibles is another film that sort of addresses this. Mr Incredible even works in insurance.

Soubriquet · 28/06/2022 17:56

It would be a rich job working in insurance.

I would definitely apply for that. You could guarantee you would never be laid off because there would always be work
