The orange one with graphics that the guy keeps wailing away on -- without catastrophic failure -- is clearly an HJC.
The ones that shattered with big cracks have either ABS or polycarbonate shells. Fiberglass doesn't fail like that. It delaminates, which is a good thing.
Caution: this video can be misleading. What you see is what happens when you take a sledge hammer to a helmet. Last I checked, this is not what motorcycle helmets are designed to protect against.
