Can you imagine if that had been ice you'd whacked your bean on? With no helmet, it's the Boo-Boo truck for you, lad.

BTW, a 22 year old hockey player died here recently when his helmet came off and he hit his bare head on the ice.  In a coma for a week, and they couldn't bring him back.  Big, strong guy, totally fit, lifelong hockey player and coach.  If a guy like that can succumb to a head injury from hitting the ice, imagine what our middle-aged noggins would look like inside if that happened to us.  Gives a new meaning to the saying "mush for brains"....
