That video, is trad climbing, and the climber is an idiot. He could have placed more gear and cut that fall in half, if not more. On the sport climbs I do you can never fall more than about 10ft, and those are usually what is called a "protected" fall. Meaning if you do fall, you aren't going to bash into tons of stuff.
Yes I need to wear a helmet, however the likelyhood of me taking a 20-30ft whipper, are pretty much nill. I'm not dumb enough to put myself in that position.
