Basically they add a bag of chemicals to the inside of the lining of your lid, which on taking a hit, turns it into an instant ice-pack, the idea being that current thinking is that cooling an injured brain reduces damage from trauma.

Sounds interesting, has been developed by Sussex uni though and been on the BBC. Does it work though?

I would imagine a great number of deaths from head injuries are more likely to be haemorrhaging / bleeding rather than post-accident heat related, but I'm no doctor
