Have you ever thought of purchasing an insurance against alien abductions ?

If you have thought of insuring yourself against alien abductions or unwanted pregnancies caused by aliens, just note that thousands of people in the world have already underwritten insurance covers against the paranormal events that can happen to them.

The first insurance policy of its kind was marketed by Mike St. Lawrence in 1987. The contract gives rise to compensation of 1 USD per year until the death of the insured if he manages to bring a proof of his kidnapping by an alien. Because of the low insurance cost and the symbolic compensation, the majority of policyholders see this cover as a mere joke or an original gift idea.

Other insurance policies against kidnapping by aliens exist! This is the case of the one marketed by the insurer Goodfellow Rebecca Ingrams Pearson (GRIP) whose company sold 30 000 policies.

With further research, it is possible to find insurance covers against unwanted pregnancies caused by aliens and life policies in the event of death attributable to aliens.
