One would presume that if he were worried enough to write about it that it may be more than a slight hit or a cosmetic scratch. But, worth restating because apparently the obvious is not apparent to you.

I like these references to the "obvious". They suppose to explain everything, because they are ... well ... obvious. Obviously, if he is writing about the helmet, it's got to be damaged and not because someone he trusts got him worried that helmet might be cracked without even looking at the helmet. If you scroll up, and I mean all the way up, you will see that the guy didn't even feel any impact

A lot of people here recommend buying new helmet without actually seeing the damage. Nobody recommended showing actual helmet to the guy who said it can be cracked for visual inspection and asking him for advice again. That would be much better advice than anything BF bunch can offer. Isn't it obvious? Or maybe not? I don't know.
