The heaviness slowed them down, plus the helmets made it extremely difficult to see, especially peripheral vision, so that attacks from either side could not be seen until it was too late.

Why did they wold war 1 wear helmets?

I'll answer the question when I can understand it. Does this person mean "why did they wear helmets in WWI" or something else? The reason for wearing helmets dates back to Medieval times, when it was thought that wearing some sort of armour would protect people from swords, arrows and other war instruments. By the time the C20th had arrived, helmets had slimmed down considerably, compared to their Medieval ancestors. And, of course, they did very little to protect the wearer.
