It is an interesting design with many supportive and shock-absorbing elements that make bipedal movement both possible and safe. We have supporting arches that carry the weight of the entire body and virtually any load placed upon it. The many joints comprising the arches are quite well endowed with a multitude of muscles, tendons and ligaments. When the foot contacts the earth underneath it during movement, the joints in the arches flex in order to dampen the forces encountered.... '
