from a whiffle ball bat? Only if you are quite frail.
I was at a birthday party a few weeks back and watched a wiffleball bat being used to thoroughly explode what I thought to be a pretty sturdy pinata. One hit, and raining candy. Sure, your ribs are stronger than cardboard, but the sound I heard and violence I saw was not something I could take lightly it if had been applied to my skin.
The chances of a broken rib are small, but they are still there.
Personally, I think that we've exhausted the speculation stage of this gaym. Since so many of you think it's not a big deal, It's time to start paying people to get whacked.
