A different kind of helmet thread .....

[Fab Foodie]

So what non-cycling helmets do you get to wear?

Here's one from me ....

Paging @Fnaar.

On second thoughts, no I'm not...

I get to wear one of these when I'm welding my TR7, except that the knob's on the inside (still not paging @Fnaar...)

Injuries sustained from a stale pork pie can be quite severe.

when a stainless pipe coupling in a manufacturing plant that can be removed for cleaning gets dropped from a height it can be fatal without the Hard Hat. with the proper head protection it hurts but is generally survivable.

when I work on a roof I have to wear one as there is a risk something could fly across the roof from another area.

Don't drop it then.

I took delivery of something very similar to this on Monday...before that I was welding with a non reactive flip up super dark one. the difference is like Night and Day

Once went to Immingham docks to pick up a 40ft container weighing 29 tons (I think is was) nearly wet myself when they said I had to wear a hard hat in the cab, like that was going to protect me if the chains snapped on the way down from 100ft.

Do you think he wears chest protection as we, as a rock cake under the heart can be pretty fatal as well.
