This is why one wear a good helmet

That still would have hurt hope it wasn't you wearing it.

    I agree with Glen's sentiment, and hope the head that was in it is OK.

[Mypod]

no, it wasn't my helmet (or head), just a post someone sent me on facebook. I do agree...I hope the persons head was ok. Still, certainly shows the value of a good helmet and why one should wear it

Would be interesting to learn the background of that damage?... how does ones head maintain the same position long enough for that form of grinding to occur?

[Biggles]

I'm guessing his jacket would have worn through if that's how much the helmet wore.

it had reached the foam impact lining.  Not too far to travel to his nut!
