How much force does it take to break the ribs of a human being?
really not all that much if they are hit in the right place

Depends on who you are, old or young, prolly if your around 20 you can talk a big blow to the ribs and have some narly bruises but if an old man like 50 took that he could break one or two. I have taken one from a hockey stick, there pretty wicked pain, but i just had a nice bruise. But I did break both my Ulna and Radius in my arm from a hockey stick it wasn't that heavy of hit but it hit in a exact spot to crunch both bones pretty easily. It felt F**K up.
