As someone who has played basketball, football, ice hockey and rugby and given and taken thousands of impacts, I can tell you it's an art that would seem counterintuitive to some of your assumptions because the body is not 1 solid brick and is impacted by angles, leverage and gravity. The one aspect that is most true is the fact that an unprepared athlete is at great risk in any collision. Always tried to use that against bigger guys. [/QUOTE]
