I know, but I elaborated with actual woodpecker stories in my post.....

thought they were working on a soft helmet that would greatly reduce concussions?

Right now the helmets are hard even the padding inside is extremely hard.

I look at it like a car built in the 70's very tough car but when it hits a wall it passes all that energy to those inside causing much more damage to those inside the car, than cars nowadays with crumple zones. Which disapates some of that energy.

Really think they need to come out with a softer helmet that gives. Which I know they are looking into, but makes me wonder why are they not expediting this research?

the new helmets absorb more energy. thats what the flap on the front is partially for. divert energy.

yeah I seen these helmets, but saw a piece awhile back on a helmet that has no hard shell on it. You can literally see it flex when dropped on the ground from a distance. people wont be so quick to use a soft helmet as a weapon.

He shouldn't have ate those cookies(if he didn't give them all to CMac).

News now says he might not have a concussion even though he is in the protocol. That might be some good news.

Reminds me of a time during Combat Lifesaver training. The instructor asked a soldier what to do about a head wound. The soldier thought for a second, then said "apply a tourniquet?"
