Well. 'Man Crushed By Urinal' isn't a headline you expect to see

LONDON - A pop-up urinal crushed a man to death in London’s theater district Friday, police said.

Firefighters used a winch to free the man after he became trapped under a hydraulic urinal at Cambridge Circus, a busy intersection in the city’s West End.

Does England have ambulance chasers as good (greedy) as ours. A whole new road to wealth.

They are restrained somewhat by "loser pays" rules for civil lawsuits. Here, you can take a gamble on a lawsuit, and the worst that happens is you are out your own expenses and time. There, pursue a dubious lawsuit in the hopes that they'll pay you to go away, and you are likely to wind up paying for their lawyer, the court's time, and all the costs for finding and copying documents, as well as your own legal costs.
