Do your own research. Wear one if you want to dont if you dont want to.

I do wear a helmet and think it is a good idea for others to do so. I don't have a any truck with the common argument that "injuries can be worse with a helmet on and they don't help at high speeds"
But the guy in the vid is a TWAT.
"I don't have any statistics or anything but I should imagine...." is one excellent quote. "there is no excuse not to be wearing one....so why can't they make it legislation?"
Any chance that the newbie poster is said lad in the vid?

Having trashed mine this week when i took flying lessons, I see the need, but as to be made compulsory, I think not.
Commonsense tells as when to wear one or not.
What does annoy me a tad, is when you see families out cycling, and mum or dad have made the Kids wear helmets, but then the parents dont, which is firstly not setting a good example, but who going to look after the kids if mum or dad or both have accidents which which end up with them brain damaged or dead, which has happened in the past.. end of Rant

Exactly, rich - and as two helmet wearing riders we are well aware of the dangers!
