I remember learning about this years ago. The olfactory sensors (bulbs?) are very close to the brain itself, but they’re separated from the brain by a layer of bone, which is part of the skull. If one’s head hits the steering wheel in a head-on collision, the shock can sever the short nerve fibers that pass through little tiny holes in that bony plate, disconnecting the olfactory bulbs from the brain. No more sense of smell, no more tasting food.

Maybe some of Eliot Spitzer’s hookers will want to insure their physical assets....... of course the policies would have to include a provision for rapid deterioration of market value over the next 10-12 years......

“The Dutchman is not allowed to ride a motorcycle or be a boxer, knife thrower’s assistant or a fire-breather.”

No motorcycle? Can his wife wear cologne? If she wears musk oil, will he go into spasms???

These and other olfactory hallucinations boggle the mind ping...

Many years ago I was in the insurance business and wrote a few policies of this nature, including kidnap insurance. I kept those few policies in a safe and didn't even let the secretaries know who had the coverage.

The last thing in the world this man should do is shout look at me and multi-million nose. He has just made himself and his insurance underwriter a target. He may have a nose but he hs no brain.
