You can experience this if you hit a coin with a hammer a few times.
I once watched a youtube video where someone built a rig to explore this very question
There are so many weird assumptions here. There is more than a hand moving when a slap is performed.
A skilled slapper could put more of their body weight behind the slap. I'd assume at least 40 kg or even more as the average slap.
I read once that the Mongolian warriors would place raw meat under their saddles and after riding all day would then consume it. Now I'm thinking that's not so far fetched.
And what would that do to my hand?
Average rotisserie chicken is 2 lb? Costco's is 3lb. That would require many more slaps.
Not chicken, but someone tried hitting steak with drum pedals: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QFTCqnYk5Sw
How can she slap?!?!
Oh, that's how
