- jsjohnst 9y agoLate reply, but that isn't true. If you a heavy object hits concrete it will go through the concrete, just like it would go through water. In the case of a human, it will potentially crush every bone in the process, but you will still go through it if the kinetic energy vs binding energy is in the right balance.
