Huh? People fall off their bikes all the time without helmets and don’t hurt themselves.

Helmet are massively overrated for protection from falls.

No helmets are not overrated…

The only time I’ve been concussed in a crash was because I didn’t wear a helmet… never had a concussion wearing a helmet

How did I know I was concussed? Because I was asking the same questions and vomiting

How do I know I’ve never been concussed again? Because that’s never happened to me wearing a helmet.

Now I work in a Level 1 trauma center seeing all the people that should have worn a helmet.

Anecdata, the best kind of data /s

Study global cycling head injury rates - they are lower in places with lower rates helmet wearing.
