Make sure you watch the video.

i would use my arms to break my fall though, those people must be dummies!

That's a great idea Tim, maybe the inventors can come up with something like the little kid arm band swimming wings that inflate on impact. They would look like arm warmers.

Couple things that bug me. On the endo, what is triggering the airbag? I picture this thing going off when I bend over to strap on my shoes. And you just know that some smartass (someone like me) will not be able to resist the urge to greet you with a firm slap on the back. On the fun side, we could have bets on how long Dan would make on mountain bike rides before setting this thing off.

This thing could be loads of fun to play with but what bothers be is they don't show you the state of the dummy's face or head before and after. And I'm with you Brian, what actually triggers this thing anyways.

Who would have thought, an airbag for your head. I think their real market is in developing a whole body suit for motorcycling.

I'm thinking this should be used by the pro peleton. Imagine one of those 50 rider pile-ups on the traffic circles, it would look like a popcorn machine!

That would be great entertainment.
