A lot of it depends upon dynamics of each crash. I’ve crashed at +100mph and been fine and crashed at 40mph with minor concussion. Lowsides and sliding tends to be mild. Any kind of tumbling can “flip” your head and feet around so that their velocity is actually higher than speed you were traveling. It’s kinda snapping end of whip. Landing when you’re spinning can hit your head at twice speed of travel. Sudden deceleration smashes brain into inside of skull.

Should take your friend to hospital for checkup. It takes a while for brain to fully swell and a lot of people with concussions die 2-3 days later when they appear fine.
