In this video, I break down how motorcycle airbag systems work, the types of injuries they’re designed to prevent, and why they may be one of the most important safety innovations since the full-face helmet. Using real medical imaging and demonstrations, we’ll look at the most common injuries, how airbags deploy in milliseconds, tethered vs electronic systems, and a surprising injury that airbags can help reduce. I'll also test just how much force it actually takes to deploy a tethered system (it’s more than you think). Disclosure: Helite provided demo units for testing and demonstration.
