Just as there was a finite about of weight he could lift, there was a finite amount of force he could withstand. His hardened head wasn't much more durable than the record held for the thickest skull amongst humans, that being one which could endure roughly 1,100 pounds of force before it was entirely crushed. It still wasn't Gonad in danger of being hurt though. Lysander's odd maneuver might have aided him in tanking a suplex from a normal man, but Gonad's destructive power when implementing wrestling finishers was something else precisely because it compiled every possible factor to maximize killing force.[/i] [img]https://i.imgur.com/PJ7Zkbl.png[/img] [i]The dynamic force of Gonad's German suplex spiked at at least 3,350 foot pounds, likely much greater, well over a ton and a half. As Lysander stretched his leg up to try and break his fall, it'd be subject to what amounted to the weight of a brand new Sedan. There was never a chance. If his leg was locked out, the kneecap would burst like an orange and fold backwards like a cheap lawn chair. If it was partially bent, it'd collapse in on itself with the ankle very likely snapping from the sheer unexpected power. There was no hope for deflection to safety, anymore than a nail had of deflecting the blow from a hammer should it bend mid-strike. As that first foot had been expected to save Lysander's head, the complete failure of it to meet the expectations would result in his skull splitting against the floor regardless. Gonad's back arch had been much steeper than what's usually seen in wrestling explicitly to peak Lysander's head past Gonad's at the apex of the maneuver, and to prevent said head of Lysander from leaving the impact zone, as Gonad was used to opponents trying such a desperate last ditch tactic. Gonad had grabbed Lysander around the waist for a reason. It allowed him to lift an opponent higher than would be possible with a higher grip, and when combined with Gonad's back bridge, made for a fiendishly difficult attack to avoid. His finishers were called finishers for a reason. Once Gonad had lifted an opponent off the ground, the combination of his and his opponents' weight, his excellent form, and the solidity of the impact surface reliably served as an often irrevocable death sentence. With at least a full ton of force still left over, Lysander's head would be due to hit the floor before his other foot and likely crack like a melon, with little time left to do anything in that time frame but admire the honed physics of one of the world's most brutal unarmed killing techniques.[/i]
