I'm very aware of what a modular helmet is. The hinging of the jaw line still doesn't solve the hardest part: getting the head between the top of the visor opening and the chin bar. You wouldn't be able to lower the chin bar if the kid's head was in the position it is in the picture. I'm halfway tempted to just go do it with my helmet right now and paste the picture here, but fuck that, and just know that I did the same as the kid.
to get my chin bar on, it wasn't just screwing it on. i had to lift it up, get it in just the right spot for the plastic whatsits to line up so it could snap in right, and then the hinge would click in properly. it's my first modular helmet so i can't say they're all like that, but it's my experience. i couldn't get mine to do that.

Clearly waiting for the fire department to come and free him.

The look on his face makes this much funnier. He has already reached the “acceptance” phase of dealing with trauma.

Insert head through the visor gap sideways, then turn it once you're inside. Good photo op.
