I got a super bad concussion when I fell and hit the back of my head on some concrete a while back. It took nearly three weeks for my symptoms to go away. I got really lucky I didn’t get anything more serious. We were concerned that I permanently damaged my occipital lobe because my visual issues were not improving. Thankfully I got better, but goddamn. I can’t imagine a brain injury as severe as that guy’s. It’s terrifying.
Shit, that’s a really bad outcome for the cyclist! Poor dude
Mate of mine died like that. Skull is very thin at the back of the head

Hits on the head are a roll of the dice: nothing, concussions, death are all options…
Don’t forget contusions the biker got a contusion.
