It's interesting how you can bump a large body part, like your arm, against something and it will only hurt a little, but if you hit a smaller body part, like your nose or your big toe, against something with the same amount of force, it will cause so much pain that you'll swear that you are about to die and scream profanities out loud, amirite?

That's because when you hit something like your arm, the force is spread over a large area. There is less pressure per square inch on you arm then say if you hit your toe. Since your toe is small, the same force is now compacted into a tiny area.

It's interesting how you can bump a large animal, like an elephant, against something and it will only hurt a little, but if you hit a smaller animal, like a bug or your cat, against something with the same amount of force, it will cause so much pain that you'll swear that they are about to die and scream profanities out loud, amirite?

Yeah! Isn't it also funny how if you light a candle in a cold room, it stays cold, but if you light a big fire in the fireplace, the room gets warm?! What's up with that?!
