They did a show a NFL QB vs a world class archer. They didn't use just any QB though, I think they used one of the most accurate QBs in the NFL Drew Brees. He was 10 for 10 hitting the bulls eye on an Olympic archery target. A world class archer only hits about 1 out of every 10 shots. Then they wanted to show which had more force getting hit blocking a soccer ball or a football (on a punt). The soccer ball made much more force but I think it's because of where it hit in the face compaired to the football hitting on the hands. Then a guy willing bent over in front of a NFL punter and let him kick him in the stomach to measure the force if the player trying to block the punt get kicked in the gut. It was 600x more than the soccer ball at 55mph. I have seen them do many different tests if you havn't check out the show you need to!!!!!
