      My friend broke his arm by punching my shoulder when we were kids. Must have hit it exactly wrong or something because I felt almost nothing, and it snapped his arm like a twig. That made me feel pretty strong too lol.

      I felt bad for a while but 30 years later he still credits me for his career as a musician because he took up learning guitar that summer since he couldn’t play outside for a couple months.

        when you throw a punch, you want it to land on the big two knuckles first. if it lands on the other two or you ball your fingers around your thumb (thumb goes on the outside of the fist not the inside), things break. that’s my guess.
