Oooh you are awful...............but I like youOr a helmet...
So one person reports what e was told by a second person who had been told it by a third person.... None of whom is actually qualified to investigate this
Hardly evidence is it?

I'm disappointed by the decline in the Metro's usually excellent comprehensive and well grounded science journalism.

Ah, but imagine the coverage. Just remember to point the lenses outwards
[QUOTE 3324440, member: 45"]Read the rest of the thread. Schumacher hit a rock and was catapulted into another. His helmet broke into at least two pieces on impact. The camera remained intact.[/QUOTE]
Perhaps because the camera and mount did not come into contact?
As I said previously, the helmet company desperately needs to blame someone else for the failure

[QUOTE 3324658, member: 45"]If you had bothered to read the thread you'll see that those comments were made by ENSA.[/QUOTE]
What was reported above in the thread was a newspaper article with the following:
All you need to do now is show where ENSA have published these results, and actually stated that the camera mount was responsible for the failure.
I await with bated breath for the link to the ENSA statement that says the camera and mount came into contact, failed to break and caused the helmet failure.
I assume that you are also aware that ENSA did not receive all of the helmet, simply part of it, so tany comments on the actual accident is conjecture
Then of course the quotation in the article is from "a source close to the testing laboratory", so again hardly real evidence
In fact the assumption that (as in the above quote) that "the presence of a solid object between a helmet colliding with a rock would weaken the structure" is really rather unfounded and in contradiction of the breakaway nature of the GoPro mounts.
As before, there is no real proof either way,
