No, Really, Headbanging Is Bad For You?

Since even the British Medical Journal deserves a month off, they’ve taken the prestigious talents of the medical research community and turned decades of education into a research paper discussing the damage Beavis and Butt-Head would have done to the necks as compared to the injuries possibly sustained by Wayne and Garth.
