Abstract: Disclosed herein is an energy absorbing article comprising a first energy absorbing device and a second energy absorbing device, where the first energy absorbing device and the second energy absorbing device each comprise a first chamber; where the first chamber has a predetermined shape and contains a fluid that can be expelled upon the first chamber being subjected to an impact; and a second chamber in fluid communication with the first chamber; the second chamber being operative to receive the fluid that is expelled from the first chamber and to return the fluid to the first chamber as a result of pressure generated by its own elasticity and without the assistance of any other external manmade force.
