Unconventional Objects Used As Helmets During The Egyptian Protests

Egyptians who want freedom will protect their head at all costs! Even if it means creating a makeshift helmet out of bread. Revolution feeds innovation! Tip of the hat to you, Egypt. [Ed note: You can now place the Yemen bread protester in any situation you please.] posted Feb 4, 2011 12:19pm EST
