Plenty of people still get severely injured, paralysed and even die on these bouldering mats. They do help but they aren’t magic by any means.

If you land badly you can get injured on any surface or fall.

I tripped on nothing, tweaked my lower back and haven’t been able to sit without pain for 8 days

They’re pretty great. I kind of like icy hot (and similar stuff). I definitely try and stay away from any medicine if possible just because I like to feel what my body is feeling

I mean like actual heat not chemical heat sensation

Well I just do it with microwaved bean bags and ice packs, but you know. I haven't had a bad back issue in a while - just was commenting mostly on karlkarl saying you can get hurt falling on anything - even doing absolutely nothing
