The Recycled Paper Bike Helmet (WTF?!)

I'm all for recycling. We're using way too much shit and not reusing the resources intelligently. I get that. But when I heard about his paper pulp bike helmet, I just had to sit down and WTF?! myself a couple of times.

The London Bicycle Hire Scheme is working in conjunction with the people at Paper Pulp Helmet to sell these helmets to people who need to rent a bike but don't have a helmet on them at the time of rental. The helmets are made from recycled newspapers and even the straps are recyclable. They are definitely for short-term use and can be used in rain.

I like the idea. But dude, I can't deal with looking like I have a Jello mold on my head.
