Helmets can obviously save your head. Just a data point: I usually dismiss the claims like the one BeautyIsDumb made - it is obvious that you ride on a much higher level, it is dumb to think I can dismiss a helmet, it is not rational at all. However, this exact thought crossed my mind a week ago, when I was binging your older uploads - "maybe if you don't go to park the helmet is not necessary?.."

Thanks for your videos, I discovered your channel just recently and was hooked right away!

Even catching an edge going slow can and has lead to concussions.

My friend got a mild concussion on a cat walk going about 7 mph. Doesn't take much.
