Default skydiving

I am only guessing here but the reason that the would be jumper is not wearing a helmet is so that when they throw back their head they dont knock out the teeth of the instructor. Why he isnt wearing a hlemt is anyones guess but it is hard to look cool while wearing a helmet. On the subject of skydiving and helmets......once a body is traveling at terminal velocity is a helmet really going to help if you smack the ground?
