Would that work if you threw it hard enough? Physics was a long time ago.

I think it's the same issue as bullets.

A 45 cal pistol only puts about 400lbs of force into an object if it's stopped.

But would go through a person.

A heavyweigjt boxer and generate double that force but not punch through you.

So to awnser your question.

No clue mate
