I'm not sure what that specific testing method in the video emulates. Perhaps clipping into a bicycle that was hanging upside down from hooks above a car in a garage, and then falling head first onto the hood of that car.
But seriously...any research into making helmets safer is good. Any research that makes cars safer to collide with is good.
