Probably not as much as I should, because I have had friends who died from head injuries while skiing.

But then again, I have had more friends who died from head injuries in car accidents, and I don't wear a helmet in the car either.....

Always...I like my food chewable and not out of a tube after I hit my head and end up in a wheelchair as a quadriplegic! I have a friend that hit his head lightly and ended up needing a craniotomy…and if you don’t know what that is you should look it up…I think it will convince you to wear the helmet!
