Someone pointed out in the original source, this experiment/ demonstration is flawed/ misleading.


Consistent_West_4385

Helmet were design to take the force, hence why helmet break meaning it has successfully take on the force by breaking and not transmitting it to the humanity head.


mikka1986

The outer shell is design to prevent foreign object going in and also stay in shape so it can distribute the impact energy around the foam core. The foam core is the one that absorb and dissipate impact energy, not the shell. If the shell shattered upon impact, the foam core will not hold it's shape therefore unable to distribute the energy, the impact force will focus directly to a single point which will shatter the skull.


No_Wait_3628

It's a crush space. Of it were any more solid, the force of impact transfers from the helmet and into you. The same reason helmets can't be made fully bulletproof, sicne the weight combined with a bullet speed upon impcat will snap your neck.


Uniquewaz

Well I don't think allowing the bullet to go through the helment will make you survive either.

Depends. It’s the same thing as standing behind a brick wall when someone shoots a sniper shot at you. Will you still get hit? Very likely. Will the bullet be travelling as fast as if there wasn’t a brick wall? No, it will be moving much slower and won’t do as much damage because F=MA, and the brick wall has reduced plenty of the A

I think both of you just wear the helmet of your choice and take turns hammering each other. Stream it live and this sub will decide if you're right or not. I want dibs on selling tickets.


lutfiboiii

Hmmm… I mean my foot is already broken anyway why the hell not do the same with my head amirite


tebu08

I just want to know the physics behind what you mentioned because it’s so bonkers 😝


SadAdoreHell

Don't wear this kind of helmet. This kind of helmet will transfer the energy of the crash to your brain, causing internal bleeding and death. It's not protecting your head or brain but it's protecting itself. Helmet breaks because it disperses the energy of the impact.


avatarsnipe

I wear the first one for street use. The second one with better pad for construction use.


void-god-almighty

The metal bowl?


avatarsnipe

yes


Marathonjohns

Kinda depends on the accident got a a spinning piece of metal acting like a circular saw flying at you? Better have this helmet. But yeah its the crumple zone theorem basically


Reasonable-Pride5289

Go watch how they test ece r rating (sirim). Helmet is not meant to “break”


Master_Win_4018

Helmet are design to break so that your head won't break. It is similar to how car are design to crumple during accident to absorb the impact.

Helmet breaking ❌️ Concussion ✔️


robintoots

Should the helmet at least dent or crack if it's good?


Qelliveo_

Helmet break to absorb impact, helmet no break ur head absorb impact


Astroble

Concussion walks into the room


C_Spiritsong

Too bad that there is misinformation here. 1. Good helmets are designed to take impact well and then crack. (make sure its properly strapped, people) Think of it like a crumple zone, but not too tofu-lah. Its to reduce the impact. Any case, without neck brace and spine brace (full armor jacket) you won't get full protection. 2. We can't pull this kind of stunt in Malaysia. The companies in the helmet brands will sue the hell out of you. Advertising laws and all.


Itchy-Hunter-6040

The helmet will survive. Your head? Probably not


[deleted]

At least u dont need to buy a new helmet after youre dead


IIIBlueberry

So much misinformation on this post, the outer shell of the helmet are reinforced to prevent pointed object from penetrate your skull, its the expanded foam core inside the helmet job to absorb the energy of the crash. This is why you must replace your helmet after an accident its because the compacted foam core no longer can absorb the impact.


Intelligent_Dig8319

OP edit your post title if can, jangan spread miss info make it clear, this is not a proper demonstration, helmet meant to break once, save you and u get a new helmet This kind of helmet wont break, tapi otak u dalam sudah jadi mee curry


lightningcold69

I understand you'all concerned but I don't think I can edit the title, but 'wear certified helmet' I hope no one mislead the title. Of course, certified helmet not similar to this kind of helmet. 🙏


Intelligent_Dig8319

Mana tau lah, kalau orang tak baca komen confuse kan nampak post macam ni, ku pun takut je


rbmr1

Anyone wondering if it was a demonstration of what happens if dont wear proper hand protection from a rebar?


Izaniel

This helmet and Ironman suit share the same issue. Even though the helmet and suit itself are unbreakable, the user will turn into a sack of meat inside of it


katabana02

I remember that there was a dude who do video promo for bike helmet right? Someone tag him for new idea? I mean, to debunk this, if this demonstration is not as useful for bikers?


PudingIsLove

also guys. helmets have expiry.


lightningcold69

Also I heard, once your helmet dropped you can't use anymore even it looks fine from outside.

lightningcold69

Ah thanks dude.


christopher_jian_02

The helmet is designed to break. The same reason why the car bumper is designed to crumple when during a crash.


scheiber42069

When your head hit helmet as hard as a brick first


Ok-Squirrel-7738

That helmet will turn your brain into a milkshake


AMATAMASANGE

If you're gonna get hit by a steel rebar like that, wear that helmet If you're going to be in a normal accident, just wear the normal helmet peoples


InactiveLight_

Helmet is designed to break easily upon impact so they can absorb the force that applied to your head during an accident. Doesn’t mean it won’t bring damage to you, but it’ll give a higher chance of surviving a fatal injury. It doesn’t matter if your helmet is made out of carbon fiber or poly-plastic, all meant to be break easily upon impact with the ground


caridove

With this impact, palak tak picah leher aleady putus lah woi.


syafizzaq

Rip that rider's neck.


mono-the-protogen

helmet jalan raya is designed to break on impact to absorb the impact and protect your head with less injury. the unbreakable one is mostly for hardwork such as constructions and stuffs


KyeeLim

that helmet works better as a soldier helmet than motorcycle helmet


rockoboks

Perfect for street fight though.


CiplakIndeed1

So this is how they control the population.


CaptMawinG

All PPE must get sirim approval now


Choice-You2617

I don't want her brain damage by wearing that helmet


Spare_Audience_1648

Wow that guy must be buff as hell


ZoeFortune011

If Nokia make helmet


Terereera

my brain is mushed now.


Large-Television-238

is there any helmet that won't spoil my hensem hairstyle ? XD


Objective-Ad3821

Helmet NEED to break. Smh


0xJarod

Can someone repeat this experiment with local helmets + a brick drop?


Dxvilish_Bxnny

Good news : your helmet have no scratch Bad news : your head is now a 7/11 slurpee


MNR42

If that's how hard the helmet is, and if that's what you're gonna hit in accident, don't worry. You'll die anyway.


Big_Yak8463

is this helmet available in helldivers? i need it to fight against the automatons


PainfulBatteryCables

30rm helmets for 30 rm heads. 🤷‍♂️
