A man who claimed he could no longer carry out manual labour and was unable to raise his arm above his head without pain after his car was rear-ended had his case for damages thrown out when the judge was shown Facebook pictures of the plaintiff participating in a 10km obstacle course.

Brothers Gary and David Malone from New Ross, Wexford both took separate cases arising from an incident in Castlemartyr Co Cork in 2014.
