Yeah, I had three options…
Within 6 days… do an incision over the sinus and pull the dent… or an ear to ear peel my face off, pull the dent, then put my face back on.
Or just leave it.
I chose the later.
As for whether the helmet saved my life… I’m not sure, although I am definitely alive.
Part of me wonders whether the helmet disintegrating directly over the fracture caused the fracture.

Don’t know… but I think helmets are good.
If the helmet has broken you can safely say it has absorbed some energy from the impact, to what extent I have no idea. BTW, one thing I notice with a lot of people is that the chin strap isn't tight enough. I found with losing a lot of weight that I had lost some flab around my face and had to keep on adjusting the chin strap tighter.
