Take care of your head: accident victims shared photos of helmets that saved their lives
It’s probably unnecessary to remind again that a helmet on your head is a good idea when you ride a motorcycle, bicycle or do something extreme, but let’s still note again: a helmet is a great idea!
We do not intend to be unfounded in our statements. Look at these photos sent by users of the Bored Panda website - they can convince even the most stubborn to take care of their heads. It doesn't matter how great a motorcyclist or cyclist you are. Wearing helmets makes your head sweat, so be it. My hair is ruined, but that doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is that one day a helmet may save your life, or at least prevent an accidental collision from disfiguring your face beyond recognition.
“My face and head took the brunt of the collision with the tree. I received a direct blow to the face. The doctor said I was lucky I was wearing a helmet that covered my entire face. It didn't crack, the visor didn't break. My cheekbones remained intact, my spine was fine, I only strained my neck a little, my teeth remained intact!”
