It does not ake too much thought to realize a 400 dollar price tag does not keep a manufacture from making garbage. We are talking about helmets designed to break on impact. You could take a normal helmet and cover it with pool noodles and it might out perform most helmets with the extra cushion. It was silly slogans and badly designed expensive helmet and a few good outliers. All to say the 10 dollar helmet for a 10 dollar head campaign made many 10 dollar helmets cost alot more than 10 dollars. The cheap helmets eventually got better and many expensive helmets stagnated or were never good to begin with.

That's a good idea! To be honest, I don't think we'd see an appreciable difference. Of course it depends on the models we choose, but I know a couple $100 helmets that scored 4/5 or 5/5 on SHARP safety ratings. Similarly, I know some $600+ helmets that scored 3/5 or less. The safety/price relationship gets really random above $150ish. You're paying for less weight and more features past that point. ~RF9

Wow! How can something like that even be allowed to be sold. That thing's very existence is ridiculous. More often than not, you get what you pay for.

This is a knockoff helmet, not a cheap helmet, genuine cheap helmets will be safe, up to standard, expensive helmets will be better than the standard they need to reach, probably. This was sold to you in China no doubt (not all Chinese items are poor quality/knockoffs), a cheap helmet bought in the US if laws are similar to the UK, will still be subject to the same testing as expensive helmets and need to meet a minimum standard in order to legally be sold.

He also did a video on how utterly crap the US DOT standards are...helmets sold in the US, even with that "certification", are not exactly guaranteed to be safe. DOT standards let manufacturers self-report their test results. With no internal oversight. Yes, really.

@@magicoddeffect We are lucky to also have SHARP testing, this is set up by the department of transport. We can even request helmets to be tested. It's a good place to go to see what helmets in your price range have a good rating, even if you're not from the UK. It might have your helmet on there or ones you can get where you live, especially from well known brands.

It is, just not a firearm. an air rifle has a lot more punch with a .177 and for this test quite relevant. Whats the psi or the feet/meter per second speed of the .177 pellet Air rifle?

It would be very interesting to redo this test with an Arai, Shoei and AGV top of the range helmet vs the $300 helmet in this test. I bet they would out perform it pretty much in the same ratio as shown here.
