While it is not possible to actually "break" ones bum, it is quite possible to fracture one of the bones that provide the structural basis of the bum.
Often a person will fall backwards and land on their behind. This can result in a fracture of the tail bone - also known as the coccygis or os. coccygis in latin.
While this is very painful for the patient, there is not much to be done about the fracture. X-rays will be taken to confirm the diagnosis, and to be sure that the fracture is not complicated. Painkillers along with a order to rest and wait will be prescribed.

Is is also possible to fracture a part of the lower back - os. sacrum. This is fairly more serious condition because of the nerves that pass through this part of the back.

Why does falling and hitting the ground with your elbow exert more pressure than falling and hitting the ground with your back?

When you fall and hit the ground with your elbow, the force is concentrated on a smaller area compared to hitting the ground with your back. This smaller area leads to higher pressure exerted by your elbow on impact. In contrast, hitting the ground with your back distributes the force over a larger surface area, resulting in lower pressure.

Snow means (frozen) water falling from the sky. For something to be a desert, there has to be very little water falling from the sky. Which means that you don't really get many snowy deserts. Antarctic might fit the bill though. There's snow and ice on the ground, collected over millenia. But very little falling over each year.
