    I've seen a helmet a rider was wearing when he died, and it was way less fucked up than that one. I simply cannot believe that whoever was wearing that helmet was unscathed. Unless thats what happens when you deck an LS2 at 5 mph?

    Alive? Yes, unscathed? Well from his thread it looks like several months in hospital, so, not so much

    Which is a good thing. But don't expect to be able to replicate it or see the same outcome twice in a row.

    Because God's got nothing to do with it.

    In your opinion, he has a different one. Why is that a problem? But let's not get this thread thrown on the religious ravings bonfire. He's alive, he thanks God. He's alive, you call it a fluke. The agreed ground is that he's alive and has learned a very big lesson.

    Wasn't Fluke an ancient pagan god?
    I reckon LS2 could be his pagan god now.
    The company should have that helmet as part of its advertising, "if you are going to hit a truck with your head at least wear one of our helmets".
    It is good to see safety gear working.

    Correct. But I'd hate others to think they may also be so lucky. That's MY point.

    Off topic, do you have a replacement visor for a nolan n-103 in stock?
