Here’s a photo and video of Seattle Seahawks player Owen Schmitt, who split his forehead in pregame warmups today by … wait for it … hitting himself with his own helmet.

What would possess Schmitt to consider doing such a crazy thing in the first place?
Why, because he did it *successfully* in college at West Virginia. (Where he was a walk-on, no less.)
(Introducing the Forrest Griffin of football)
Video of his head exploding today after the jump.
