The Skeleton, Beaneath Our Skin. . .?

[dvllover666]

Our arm. Is the bone in The lower part of our arm, from your wrist to your elbow, like a bow, split with the center empty? And from the elbow up is it not? If you were to get stabbed with a knife in the lower part, say in the middle of your lower arm, would it go right through, or hit a bone? Vice versa as if it were to go through the top. All answers are appreciated, Thanks.

there are two bones in your forearm
it just depends where you get stabbed on your forearm dude

It would still hit a bone in the lower arm, yuck and ouch!

That's two different bones in the arm that you are feeling....it's not one split bone.

The diagram on the link below will probably help!! If you were to get stabbed in the lower arm, the knife could well pass between the radius and the ulna (the two bones in the lower arm) but chances are you'd do some real damage!

There is only one bone in the upper arm - the Humerus.

Google the skeleton...it's clear that the arm does indeed consist of two long bones in the lower half, and one in the upper...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton

it is not a split bone. the longer of the two, the bump that makes your elbow, is the ulna. the other is the radius. it is possible to go through your forearm and not hit bone.
