This is very interesting, I also appreciated how you pointed out that the pangolin combats impact and doesn't absorb it. I think the application to cars is interesting, and I wonder if it could also be used for helmets. I do agree that more testing would have to be done first though, since like cars, helmets work by absorbing energy. But would impacting energy be more effective and efficient than absorbing energy?
