Are you sure that's how it was mounted? Also, the double sided tape can easily be bonded well enough to radically change the forces applied to the helmet. Take 3M's outdoor double sided tape, the stuff with the red backing, it's ridiculously strong. Plenty of motorcycle riders talk about the drag the camera causes, too. It's very easy to understand how the camera could cause extra damage to the helmet depending on how it is installed/attached. If the helmet fails, then his head is virtually unprotected.
