Matt Lauer, the head anchor of “The Today Show”, was slightly injured while riding a bicycle in Long Island. A deer jumped out in front of him which caused Matt to do a flip off the bike and crash onto the ground. Matt had a separated shoulder, and scheduled to have surgery Monday. He was wearing a helmet, thank god.

I think the Natasha Richardson death is a wake up call that all should wear helmets when doing physical activities. Whether you’re skiing, bike riding, running, riding a motorcycle, etc. Think where Matt would have ended up if he didn’t wear a helmet. He would have been knocked out cold or worse, he could have died instantly too. So at least he wore a helmet.

Natasha’s passing is a bit scary, especially since no one could tell that anything was wrong at first
