Harry was always one to accept a dare, and this dare seemed like fun. All he had to do was put on a pair of roller skates and skate backward for 100 feet. Harry had not been on skates since he was ten but was confident that he could remember. He put on the skates, stood up, and started forward. He was moving forward okay but now came the hard part- turning 180 degrees and skating backward. He tried to twist his body and turn his feet but everything got tangled up and he fell over backwards with his head hitting the concrete with a loud thud. When Harry slowly sat up, he rubbed his head and wondered why he was seeing stars. Which part of Harry's brain was hurt when he hit the concrete?

The part of Harry's head that was hurt as he hit this concrete was his occipital lobe.

This is the part of the brain that is responsible for visual processing. This part of the brain was what got hurt that was why he saw stars.

The action that led to his fall must have affected his vision. The effects that he got is what is explained above.
