Thank you, Noblesse.
Great "crash" movie on the link you gave us.
Here is my interpretation of these amazing sequences (after very careful examination, I must add...!)
(a) the blue paint was more prominent on the SIMULA ITS system than on the yellow concrete (?steel?) pole !. I conclude that the mannequin's head did not hit the pole very hard but hit the ITS with more force. I have to give SIMULA a score of 0 and the "No Head Protection System" (NHPS) gets a 1 ....
(b) the head fliping back (oohlala!) was more prominent with the ITS system. Conclusion: more neck trauma with the SIMULA system. SIMULA gets another 0 score and NHPS 1
Grand Total:
SIMULA O
NHPS 2
....and the winner is No Head Protection System... by far <ggggg, ROFL>

Kidding aside, this video is riveting. Truly amazing this ITS system. I am glad that SMU stock price is still cheap. Some of my friends are now loading up.
Have a good evening
