What's the origin of this helmet?

I've seen Adam wearing it in this portrait, seen it a couple of times on the TV show in the background, and I believe Heather Joseph-Witham wore it in one of the episodes.
I just think the style and cartoonish large size is delightful, and would love to own one myself!

I emailed Tested for you

Hello, Ché

We normally don't answer questions that come through the shop support email but in this case the answer is short. Jamie built it for dating service commercial. In the commercial the woman had a huge head and the man had huge hands. I can't recall seeing the commercial but that is the story behind the helmet.

From Adam's YouTube channel, he is obsessed with armor and spacesuits. He likely made it himself

Yeah that's my guess as well, either that or it's a prop made by Jaime's company for a film that never got released🤔
