    Fun fact: if the girl punched with the same velocity as a mantis shrimp, her arm would have come out of her shoulder socket joint.

      Aren’t the strong body parts what allows them to punch so fast? Therefore if she was able to punch so fast her body should be fine as well

        I would be inclined to agree with you, but shoulder dislocation during a punch is not uncommon in boxing. There was a viral video regarding this where the boxer dislocated his arm due to the sheer force of his punch (missed the opponent), the coach put it back in, and then went on fighting in the same round.

        Unless if she also have enamel laminated fist, then yeah she would be unharmed while whoever received those punch will be pulverised.

      Since she’s larger than a mantis shrimp, I’d be inclined to scale up the speed accordingly.

      But if she hit the target, which hopefully had enough resistance, all she would have is a comminuted fracture.
