This cyclist's head was run over by a truck...and he survived.

WOW, what a story! Thank goodness the guy was wearing his helmet. It saved his "head" but the helmet sure took a licking!

And you should replace your helmet every 2 or 3 years. The sun's UV rays break down the helmets cushioning material making it unsafe.
