How to intentionally break my macbook to get a new one on waranty.

I live in the UK and currently have a Macbook Pro which is in full working order.
I wish to insure it but the problem is the receipt is not in my name.

Apparently as my Macbook pro is still covered by the Apple manufacturer year warranty, if a break happens which they cannot repair they will give me a new one - When they issue a new Macbook Pro it comes with a newly printed receipt, which I can then get in my name.

I had a discussion with the Apple store manager and I told him "I will have to go home and intentionally break my Macbook", he basically agreed its the only way possible.

I am now wondering how I should go about doing this.

Has anybody had a genuine issue which when returning your Macbook to a store they did not fix it but replace it? If so what was it.

I am looking for some ideas here of what type of Break I should cause? Also it must be within the Apple warranty, so I think things like water damage are not covered.
smash the macbook with a sledge hammer and say a demon possessed u

LOL hahhahah i laughed so hard
Wrap it in a blanket and shove it in the oven on, Melt the insides
Empty a bottle of water on the keyboard and let the water fill the inside of the MacBook.
imagine how bad it would be if you ruin it and they didnt replace it with the 1 year warranty lmao
Max your CPU and GPU usage and put a few blankets over top of it outside, it should look fairly realistic too.

OP, you are committing a felony if you do this. You can be charged with grand theft and insurance fraud if you do this.
Go to the shop and set it on fire

Who cares?

How can they prove I intentionally broke it?
Do you know how many apple stores there are in the UK?
