RE: [RC] Helmets-for everything? - Eric Drew

Funny but I do wear helmets for almost everything I do

You won't see me on my road bike, mt bike, rock climbing or fire fighting
without one.   I have one brain and I'd like to keep it intact.  I do own 5
crushed bike helmets and I can't count the number of times I have hit my
head on low branches on the back of my horse.

Let me add this comment.  My Fire Station is in the mountains and we get
quite a few bike and equestrian accidents.  I have yet to have to load a
helmet wearing rider [of either sport]into a life flight Helo for the
emergency flight to a trauma center, but we have sent a few that were not. 
thats a $14,000 flight by the way....

Why not require helmets for the lovely girls in the Olympic
figureskating? Taking a shower? Ballroom dancing?
