Skeleton was reintroduced at the Olympic Games in 2002, and that year, Jim Shea spawned a trend: cool-ass helmets.
The gold medal winner wore an eagle helmet, and ever since, helmets at the games have been getting more and more intricate.
Sooo, because this is becoming more and more of a thing, I thought it'd be fun to look at the best helmets from the last 20 years.
Without further ado, my ranking of the 40 best helmets:
