I would have been pissed if someone tried that on me:(!!The Achilles tendon is so important for every day use so anyone trying to get someones attention by hitting someone with a shopping cart to their Achilles tendon needs to watch out or someone like me may sue! The Achilles is the largest tendon in the human body and can withstand forces of 1,000 pounds or more. But it is also the most frequently ruptured tendon.This tendon allows a person to stand on one's toes, to run, to jump, to walk normally, and to go up and down stairs.Think about driving.
I have injuried my achilles heel and let me tell you guys for people who don't know the pain..It hurts and if you tear it (luckly I didn't but I can't get so high on my right foot tippy toeing)
Like you said you can't start a relationship with pain.
