When you think of insurance, you probably think of your car, home, or maybe health insurance. But did you know some people insure their voice, legs, or even mustache? Yes, really! Let’s take a look at the craziest insurance policies ever taken out.
Voice Insured for Millions
One of the most famous examples is Mariah Carey, who insured her golden voice for a whopping $35 million! And she's not alone. Bruce Springsteen and Rod Stewart also insured their voices. It makes sense when your livelihood depends on your vocal talent.
Legs Worth Their Weight in Gold
Athletes, dancers, and models often rely on their legs to make a living. David Beckham insured his legs for $100 million. Tina Turner also found her legs valuable enough to take out a policy. It may sound strange, but considering how much income depends on those legs, it suddenly seems more reasonable.
From Mustaches to Taste Buds
Some policies get even weirder. Did you know Salvador Dalí’s iconic mustache was once insured? And a taste tester for a coffee company took out insurance on his taste buds—losing his sense of taste would mean the end of his career.
Why Such Policies?
It may sound ridiculous, but these policies have a serious purpose. If your specific talent or feature defines your career, it makes sense to protect it. These aren’t policies for everyday people, they're for celebrities and top athletes whose income hinges on that one unique attribute.
