    I don't think a H-lm-t is going to help the cyclist pictured on that sign.

    I have trouble believing that the truck passed directly over his melon.
    And the photo could have been photoshopped.

    The story has appeared in multiple places with different views of the
    remains of the helmet.

    However I agree that it's difficult to believe that the truck wheels
    actually went over him.

    Well even if it was a lite truck, with 4 wheels, that would still be at
    least several hundred pounds of weight passing over a human skull, so
    unless the rider was born on Krypton I doubt that he could have gotten
    away with a simple concussion. And the truck was described as a large
    delivery truck.

    An eggshell comes to mind. Easy to break with hands on sides; almost
    impossible pushing in on ends. Prolly the same with the lid.

    A friend of mine ran right over his 4 year old really slowly.
    Absolutely nothing happened to the kid. So the above story doesn't
    surprise me.
