All right , mental masterbation aside....

The burden of proof is on those that say it can happen. We need documented cases- medical journal, police report, etc....

Any takers?

The nasal spine is a small needle like bone that starts near the center of the eyes, because this bone is very skinney, it can be broken easily.

But it is very hard to shove it into the brain, it would take more force then it would take to kill someone from head trauma, because it has to go in and then up

Unfortunately, all of you are missing the truth!!! As NB and I can attest, both being Semites, one from Ishmael and the other from Abraham, our noses are deadly weapons when wielded properly and, given the pronounced protrusion of our cartilege and the relative proximity of our brain to our lowered foreheads, which occur due to the downward pressure of the chi points and meridians toward our nose, in our case a palm strike to our nose will, in fact kill us or, even worse, cause our mothers to come back to haunt us!!! Oye, the guilt of the broken nose and the resulting plastic surgeries.

On the other hand, ripping out the eye as executed in Kill Bill 2 can cause some really serious issues, besides being grossed out....eeewwwww!!! That Pa Mei, what a funny guy!!! :P

Look, I'm on probation right now for punching a guy in the nose (mutual fight-then he called the cops on me). I didn't push any bones into his brain or anything, but I did crush his sinuses, leaving his brain exposed to the air. A neurosurgeon had to be called in to prevent the chance of meningitis, which is potentially lethal. So, it can kill, just not by bone to the brain.
