This is slightly off topic but I was struck by the incongruity of punching a meter thick steel door with a 700mm long arm.

Edit: It leads to the thought how well does a punch scale up? Just the action of moving a body part X distance to strike something may have a maximum damage due to non strength related issues. This is just a thought and I know comic book reality handles thing differently.
