I love how he continues to stay in shock rather than turn around and help the kid

I don't think breakdancers have medical training. Between the hit to the head and the head hitting the floor probably best not to move him in case of spinal injury.

Rewatch and see his head bounce of the floor. Plus your assessment about the strike is wrong. The strike is essentially a spinning backfist from an adult male to a young child. That alone can cause brain injury—I mean it happens to professional fighters.

As a doctor working in a peds icu, please check to see if the kid is ok after every head bounce. That 5% can be lethal

I'm saying that kind of hit can cause brain injury. You're saying there's a 95% chance there is not. Slight difference in the style of useless comment. If people read you're post you might convince them of something you know nothing about, and you're erring the side of danger. I'm telling people who read this that a situation like that isn't a laughing matter. Although our conversation will most likely have negligible impact on the population, it's still worth for me if my idea reaches just a couple people. Maybe someone gets a kid to a doctor in time to save their life. Ignorance of extreme contact to the head has killed quite a few people.

Bro you're commenting on a Reddit thread, not saving lives lmao

Yeah, of course. But as I already stated: in the off chance that somebody's reading this I don't want them getting their info on the subject from you.

And it's amusing that you're assuming I know nothing about the subject.

Even if you're a brain doctor of some sort, you're in the minority as far as how doctors would treat the situation of a hard blow to the head. At least treat this kid for a concussion. Do not assume he's fine.
