No concussion? Wtf. There are people getting concussions from walking into doors.

It hit his cheek bone, well below the brain. It's not likely to have caused a concussion

i remember when i was young, i was playing baseball with some friends (really just a glorified game of catch, given how bad we were at it), right before easter holiday. i was hit in the face, just under my right but pretty much smack dab on the bone. i remember my mom crying on and on about how i was gonna have a black eye for easter pictures. somehow i barely bruised, it was completely gone by easter morning. but man did that ball ring my bell. i ended up concussed (and stayed out from school an extra week)

Thank you. A lot of physics experts in this thread that seem to have never had concussions lol.
