That depends how it's broken... I have ended a couple of fights, (one
was going to be pretty brutal) by breaking an arm at the elbow. If you
want to piss someone off, break there are at the elbow. It hurts. If
you want the fight to cease, hang on to the arm and twist it like wringing
out a wash cloth. And shake it like you were a dog playing tug-o-war.
Hang on with both hands and avoid his patheitc attempt to get you off.
The fight will end...

This I can confirm, but I can't explain it.

I agree with Mike B on this one. The skill of the attacker will tell.
Anytime I would need to strike to the face area, my targets are
eyes, throat, and nose. I have only hit one person in the face, and
that was in high school. It is definitely not high on my list of
targets, but when the opportunity presents itself...
