The High Fives Foundation announced the release of its newest, free, educational documentary video, #HelmetsAreCool, produced as part of the organization’s B.A.S.I.C.S. (Being Aware Safe in Critical Situations) program. The film reinforces a simple, life-saving message…wearing a helmet protects your brain and keeps you in the game for a lifetime.
Designed as one cohesive documentary with three short chapters (3 minutes each), #HelmetsAreCool blends athlete storytelling, expert interviews, animation, and real-world science to connect with outdoor action sports enthusiasts of all ages.
