A New York man who is deathly afraid of frogs, was recently awarded 1.6 million dollars.

According to The Buffalo News, the town that he lives in needed to divert water for a building project, that water ended up flooding his 40-acre property.

He says that flooded water turned his land into a swamp filled with the thing he's deathly afraid, frogs.

Amazing that the court system will award money for even the stupid reasons, especially frogs.

Hopefully the guy doesn't see the video below, because I think he'll freak out.
