Yesterday, Pittsburgh Steelers Ben Roethlisberger sustained injuries resulting from a motorcycle crash. The quarterback, who led his team to a Superbowl victory, was not wearing a helmet.

Freak accidents can and do happen. I personally broke my collarbone in a freak cycling accident and cracked my helmet in another freak cycling accident. A broken collarbone can be healed, a cracked skull cannot always be healed.

If you are engaging any of these activities, wear a helmet:

• Cycling


• Skiing


• Snowboarding


• Skating


• Skate Boarding


• Motorcycle Riding

This list is far from complete. But the important thing is to go to a local shop and buy a helmet. Try on multiple brands and styles to see what fits you best.

The life you save might be your own.
