Supreme Court denies accident insurance claim when injury results from voluntary weightlifting activity.

The Supreme Court dismissed the claim for accident insurance compensation regarding a partial tear of the left pectoral muscle sustained during voluntary bench pressing. The plaintiff argued the injury occurred during a sporting activity, while the insurer contended that voluntary physical exertion excludes coverage under the Accident Insurance Act. The court ruled that injuries resulting from voluntary participation in sports or physical exercises are not covered by accident insurance unless specific statutory exceptions apply.
