    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

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

  • 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...

  • @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!

  • 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.....

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