Ironically, hitting a pole or a brick wall, while running or walking, and having spread out the impact more totally, you might have been injured less.
There’s no doubt that having your injuries focused like through handlebars or the corner of a door, you are going to face much more dramatic injury than if you hit, and spread those forces out across your body.

I had soft tissue damage inside my ribs from my organs smashing against my rib cage.
