As I previously stated, the canopy mounted head rest would have hit the back of the pilots head with some force when the canopy departed during the crash.


And this could break the pilot's neck. Or, the sudden deceleration of the crash could tear the aorta off the root at the hear or some other location, causing a rapid internal hemorrhage. Or there could be whiplash from crash which could break the neck.
