Not a fist, her fingers.Girl is 50 years old.FIFTY. YEARS. OLD.fun fact: When you break things with your hands like that you have t break your fingers on purpose before so that they heal stronger. So basically this woman is so badass she broke her hands just to do this. You asshat, you’re making it sound like she snaps her fingers in half. Martial artists like Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee (and yes, fucking Ming-Na Wen, that beautiful badass) will build up their bone strength by repeatedly (and fairly gently) striking sand, gravel, wood and steel - this creates tons of microfractures in their bones (smaller than even a hairline fracture) so the bones will heal over again and make the bones stronger and denser with increased deposits of calcium. This has to be done over long-ass periods of time, so the bones have time to heal, and none of the fractures expand into actual breaks. Oh, and she’s doing precise-ass kicks in HIGH HEELS. she kicks ass like a coursing riverSaw this post so many months ago and I still think about it from time to time lol so badass -- source link
