Your bones are incredibly strong. The bone is stronger than steel, I will not lie, but please do not do that test at home. One cubic inch of bone can support the weight of five pickups.

If you are looking for the exact details to have a souvenir of your skeleton, as about 4,000 newtons of strength are needed to break the average human femur. But do not rush to ask your daddy's van to "do a little study" on your femur and then I have a lawsuit to indirectly break some idiot's leg.

Much depends on the bone itself, its position on the body and " angle of attack ". It is not the same to receive a blow in your femur of parallel way to him, to receive it in an exact angle of 90 °. We have many bones, some are easier to break than others.

The age, diet and lifestyle of the owner of the bone also influences a lot.Bones, like any other part of your body, need "maintenance" and that comes from the nutrients you ingest, especially calcium and collagen.

This process is called re-absorption and is that your bones are breaking and then rebuilding, constantly. So if your diet is high in calcium, you will probably have stronger bones.

In addition, as well as muscles, bones become harder and more resistant depending on the pressure they are exposed to on a daily basis. Because of this is that astronauts have lower bone density than the average.

Wikipedia has a very detailed article about bones and human skeleton, but we both know that we are lazy to read it. Here are the points you should know:

When asked, you can say that the human being has 206 bones and you can see 0.1% smarter in the eyes of your crush.
The next time you weigh yourself and start contemplating the idea of

going to the gym, only 12%. That's what your skeleton weighs.
If you have a skeleton, congratulations! You belong to the group of vertebrates. You can check your card here . We play bingo every Thursday.
More than half of your bones are scattered between your hands and your feet. 27 in each hand and 26 in each foot. Break a hand and destroy 27 bones, limited promotion.
Bones have a fairly simple function: Protect yourself and do not fall apart under the weight of your flesh, thus maintaining that figure that characterizes you (maybe if you have to start going to the gym after all)

Moral of the story? Your bones are very strong, just do not try to check it.
