Airbag for the brain or invisible bike helmet?

According to the website, the airbag is made out of an "ultra-strong nylon fabric that won't rip when scraped against asphalt" and only takes .1 of a second to inflate.

It might just have trouble passing the ADR test of having a bloody great spike dropped on it.   :eek
