A multidirectional energy absorbing device capable of absorbing energy received from a wide range of impact directions. The device includes at least one impact receiving element for receiving impact and a plurality of unidirectional energy absorbing devices (10, 40, 74, 84) pivotably connected (14, 44) between the impact receiving element (46, 60, 76) and a body (42, 62, 72, 82) to be decelerated, wherein at least two of the unidirectional energy absorbing devices (10, 40, 75, 84) are connected to form an angle therebetween. |
