was the stunt wearing one of those helmets with the removable/bendable mouth guards? Unsure worst idea ever in helmet technology..

Wow, it's 1990 in Afghanistan. He's running rich. Probably didn't jet for altitude.

Incredible photos. Thanks for sharing Tiki.

If everyone on Vital saw those photos then maybe just a few of them would stop bitching about all the small things in life. That photo of the woman and her two kids on the street makes you realise just how lucky you are...

I have several teeth still missing from an accident with one of those, but I'm not going to blame it on Jofa.

When the snap-on face guards were popular, cross bar pads hadn't yet come into fashion. Pinch
