Try this experiment. Put a foam bicycle hat on a hard surface and whack
it hard with a gloved hand. Then put a Snell M2010 rated moto lid next
to it and whack it hard with a softball bat. See which one is in better

But wouldn't a steel pot test even better?

And, why a GLOVED hand? Won't it break if hit with a BARE hand?

What about a bear hand?

Boxers wear gloves to protect the relatively fragile bones in the hand.

Punching Styrofoam?
