Well, I had the motorcycle wreck with the blunt force body trauma. It didn't kill me, but it broke a lot of bones and it tore my internal organs. That was a long time ago, when I was a very young man. I healed. I ended up with screws and wire in my bones, and a limp. But today I bicycle 150 miles per week, and I have two great sons, and I coach a lot of youth sports, and I have a good job, and a good girlfriend. My life is very full. I think I am very fortunate.

But it's not all luck. During that crash, I was wearing a helmet with a visor. That visor is completely covered with the paint of the car that hit me. The visor is impregnated with the paint. My head hit hard. It is my belief, that if it wasn't for the helmet and visor, I would probably be dead. I wouldn't be here. Maybe I wouldn't be dead. Maybe just brain damaged. At the very least I think, my face would have been torn and heavily scarred. And I'm so good-looking you know, that would be a tragedy (kidding).

I think I am one whose life was saved by a helmet. Todrick, wear the helmet, even if it is hot. If you can't stand the heat, drive your X with the AC on... and buckle up.
