Try it on Thai helmets.... Although I doubt even the expensive helmets protect against impacts like that.....

Even if your head is intact in the expensive helmet , your neck won't be connected to it anymore

I love these scientific studies! But it does prove a point.

No point wearing a skid lid if it's going to fall apart when you need it.

This is a more scientific based test, the UK Sharp standards - http://sharp.direct.gov.uk/

The Sharp test seems the most "real world" test out there. I wouldnt chance the free helmets given with bike sales. And of course , they have to be strapped up !.

Most all Bell models 5-star. Some of the expensive Arai only 2-star. More hype from established brands I guess.
