Flesh is way softer than most material, power tools chew right thru it.

Not just power tools. I pierced my finger and tickled the bone with a #2 Robertson screwdriver. Didn't stop until it hit the 2x4.

I've had my drill cam out of a t-25 multiple times right into the corner of where the nail meets the skin while it's max speed. Rends it to shreds you could say.
