An effective powerful strike to the chest in fighting is only three of times (at best) more force psi than a pressure point hit. A big misconception is that in pressure point striking only a small force is needed. This is false. I studied kung-fu, karate, and ninjitsu for over 5 years and all pressure point hits require a great deal of force to be effective (especially to the head). The force required is about a third as much as a good effective powerful strike.So a pressure point hit (to the head) is only effective if its force is at least a third that of a powerful non-pressure point strike that is effective. Since Ben wasn't affected by the truck then wolverine would have to generate more than a third of the force of the truck. And I'm afraid that even though he can kick about the same speed as that truck (maybe a little faster), he has less than 100 times the mass (even with his adamantium skeleton). Remember force=ma, momentum=mv, and kinetic energy=mv^2.
first of all i am an martial artist myself and i am trining since i am 5 , what your saying about pressure points needen 1/3 of your regular hit is right it takes even less for some points but that right about the human body, the thing is durable in his chest so even a strike from hulk couldnt make much damage, but there are still brains and entire system in bens head, now wolverines kick is not that weak you know, he is super human low at strength, and his leg is from the strongest metal there is, and he took great mumentum that should double a regular force of kick, and he is an martial artist and martial artists kick much harder then it seem and then any regular man, i weigth 65 kg and the weigth of my kick is 530 kg, because a kick of a martial artist is always much much stronger, and all that into a weak point in the head should take him down, wolverine got hits much beyong regular human.... he punched wendigo and he felt, he kicked a guy in robot armor with his knee and made damage, he beat roughouse in a fist fight, and roughouse is super human strong and endurance, and wolverine hit him thrue a wall with a punch .... so you see wolverine got low super human strength and very strong hits, and all that consetrated on things skull in the right spot should take him out without probem, and i will tell you one thing, a hit in the presure point to take someone down doesnt awlays have to be 1/3 of the force that he can take, it just need to be at right presure, lets say that you can take a 300 kg kick in you chest right? and lets say someone a regular teenage boy with a 70 kg punch .. punches you in the head right in the right spot, you are going down ... because the hit just needs to be strong enough to make presure on that spot thats it, thats why wolverine should take thing out without problem
