ITT: stories that never happened

>The human skull is a natural helmet that can withstand 520 pounds of pressure.

Which is very little.

Do you commute on a heavy bike and don't go much faster than 30 km/h? You don't have to wear a helmet, unless your commute is dangerous because of heavy traffic. Do you wear spandex and like to go FAST on your bike? Wear a fucking helmet.
Not hard.

I only wear a helmet for other people.
Like literally if I go to places with no people I don't wear a helmet ever.

>>1065477
Helmets do save lives. Michael Schumacher would have been dead had he not worn a helmet, now he's merely a vegetable.

>>1065505
pretty much this, however i do wonder why helmet for road biking are not more like helmet for motorcycle. I mean if i was to crash on a tree at 70km/h i'm not sure a bike helmet would change my fate much.

>>1065533
Same here. In fact, wearing a helmet makes you take more risks because it gives an illusion of safety. If your head goes under the wheel of a 12 ton bus you're dead helmet or not.

This can be beneficial though. The other day, i was on a ride and met a qt cyclist. Beacuse i was wearing a helmet, i took increased risk and asked her out. Those sweaty thighs were goat.

>take increased risks and fuck qt without a condom
>she gets pregnant
>all of your money goes to raising the baby and can't afford cycling stuff anymore
>no more time to ride because baby
>you become a miserable cager

>>1065551
That's why you make your dick wear a helmet too.

Um, nobody gives a flying fuck whether you wear a goddamned helmet or not, jackass, but if you're not, get massive head trauma when you get hit by a car, and I'm there to see it, I'm going to laugh and point at you for being a dumb shit. Also chances are any accident you get into with a car is likely to be your fault, too, since the childishly petulant attitude usually goes hand-in-hand with a blatant disregard for the law and common sense while riding. In all honesty the cycling community and the world is better off without someone like you on a bicycle anyway, you just make life more difficult for the rest of us who aren't dumb and inconsiderate.

Stay in your basement where we don't have to look at you.

OP, regardless of whether helmets are useful or not, regardless of whether your lame little story is true or not, the fact remains that you're an irrelevant, useless person, who has nothing to contribute to the Internets other than a pointless troll thread. Worse, you're probably Underage B&, and shouldn't even be here in the first place.

Stay in school, kid, and stay off the Internet unless you're researching something for school, and definitely stay off 4chan until you're 18. This place is shitty enough as-is without empty-headed children posting more bandwidth-wasting nonsense.

That's not how helmets work, they are not designed to protect against massive head trauma at all.

This no helmet bullshit sounds fine, until you find yourself on a road bike going downhill at 40mph over shitty country roads covered in tractor debris. Then you eagerly get a helmet out of pure fear.

>be in army
>have to wear helmet in field
>wont do shit to protect from bombs or artillery

why do they make me wear a fucking meme helmet?

Because it gives you a false sense of safety an increases your willingness to participate in war. Risk overcompensation - they're counting on it.
