  • Hey I have this marushin samura helmet. Makes me feel kinda safe on the road now :P

  • Somebody please make the children stop! Excellent video by the way, our head costs a lot to put it in a 40 dollar helmet!

  • o video foi bom, dificil foi aguentar esse menino chorando...

  • see ! even the kids are crying!!

  • holy shit children

  • Jesuschrist! are you people for real? is seriously anyone thinking the RZO is better in anyway? it will always amaze me the stupidity levels a human mind can reach when it wants to acommodate its preferences.

    BTW modern cars deformate in order to absorb the impact, safety is there, i deform so you do not get that part of the energy. I want to believe you get the differences between deformate and fracture.

  • I go with rzo. Still sent he cheated he left the hammer up which put more froce coming down. And he put force when it went. Back look at it again youll see

  • And there are many idiots who dont wear any head protection at all.....

  • "Here you can see a crash test with two helmets, the first one is a Marushin Samura, cost aprox usd 260,00 and the second one is a RZO (chinese helmet), cost aprox usd 40,00."

    did you mean the first one is chinese helmet and the other one is japanese made helmet?

  • @BurnDuck marushin is japanese and RZO is chinese

  • MARUSHIN = Made in Japan

    RZO = Made in China(PRC)

  • There's only one way to find out...FIGHT! -Anyway, Man I'm just glad my head wasn't in there!

  • marushin forever!

  • the best crash test ever seen. Nice m8.

  • chinese quality...

  • you cool dude, thanx bro

  • 1:07 :DDDD

  • Ouch! And I was hoping that the cheap one would be as good as the expensive one! Glad I paid the extra for a Shoei.

  • НАДО БРАТЬ!!!

  • Only thing you missed is that what matters is what happens to your head, not the helmet itself. And hitting a helmet with a hammer is unrealistic in terms of real-world crashing: On about 75% of the accidents the rider falls on the flat ground.

    Also: Old cars (pre 90's) used to take little to no damage themselves on moderate accidents. Today's cars can totally be wrecked on a moderate accident but this was they actually provide a LOT more passive-protection for their passengers.

  • @kozas0 but still its shocking to see a helmet disindegrate like that!!!!

  • @kozas0 yea, but helmets couldn't have deformation zones for your passive protection as you talk with cars, eh hehe...

    its only about the rigidity of a helmet...

    kerb on the road has almost same shape as the hammer and think what will happen with that chinese special... =)

    i think very good test and marushin did great job. but a shame that the opponent wasn't some other known mark...

  • @Forty30 Yes helmets have deformation zones, the internal linear. That's what absorbs the crash not the shell. Helmet tests are made with a head effigy with sensors connected to computers, fit in the helmet and then dropped from appropriate height. If pressure on the head effigy exceeds a certain limit (dependent to whether it's a DOT, ECE-22.05 or Snell test) the helmet fails - human brain can only accept up to this pressure.

    Thus a helmet that passes one of these standards, is safe.

  • @kozas0 but it still isnt def zone as in car. read my reaction - what i wrote... think how big is the def zone in helmet. and the shell is the more important thing, because without it def zones couldnt hold on head... and so not to work :)

    but for sure I want to see what is inside the "real" helmet. not the chinese special

  • @Forty30 about what's inside the helmet google for "Motorcycle Helmet Performance: Blowing the Lid Off" and check the 1st result. it's a helmet test done from a motorcyclist magazine, with the help of many experts on the subject. you might be surprised that helmets like this one you guys mock, could surpass in protecting your head on a real world accident versus a 500+$ Arai which is much better when it comes to being hit by hammers, sniper rifles and all that crazy stuff we see in the movies.

  • @Forty30 With the exception of DOT standard maybe, which unlike the other two, doesn't actually force the manufacturers to any kind of testing, but instead just takes the word of them that it passes...

  • @kozas0 You are right, it is only a demostration that cheap helmets are very fragile.

  • @kozas0 Ah, but now I know which helmet to wear when someone wants to kill me with a hammer!

  • @kozas0 Standard helmet tests, include impact test (dropping the helmet in a rounded object) and perforation test (dropping the helmet in a pointy shaped object) wich is relatively similar to what we see here. These tests are included for a reason. Hitting a helmet with a hammer is not so unrealistic if someone thinks how many objects can hit a sliding rider with his helmet. Anyway i would rather have a helmet that can resist some hammer hits!

  • GOOD TEST...but u scared the kid at the back...:)

  • @ptso34 :D

  • excelent test!. chineese helmets are scam.

  • good test m8, shows that u need to buy a good helmet lol
