Why does stepping on a nail hurt more than lying on a bed of nails?

It's all about pressures. If you step on ONE nail, then that nail has to carry ALL your weight, so it goes into your skin. If you lay on a bed of nails then every nail only has to carry a fraction of your weight, which your skin can take.

Do kiss nails hurt your natural nails?
Not exactly. It'll make them a little weaker and more fragile, but im a vegetarian- who lacks protein in my diet- so my nails are very fragile. However I still use these nails and as long as I take them off at the end of one to two weeks and let them breathe a couple days they haven't really gotten to any worse a condition they were already in. Just be careful when taking them off that you dont rip off some of the layers of your nails.
When you get the fake nails at the nail shop does it hurt?
Not at all! Some people say that they lift up your skin to put the nail in, and that is so not true. I have fake nails on right now and they are fabulous i love them. Once you get them you want to keep getting them over and over. You also get to choose any size you want. They do not hurt at all. But be careful dont break a nail. That hurts! But other than that its awesome. I recommend the nail salon "Krystal's Nails" its not as expensive as others. Others cost about $30 or more. This nail shop is only $15! Plus, its really great and no pain and wonderful nails. I hope i answered what you were looking for(:
Does hitting nails in the tree bark hurt the tree?
Well, technically anything you do to injure the tree will hurt it, but over the long haul of the trees life, the fact that one nail is hammered into its bark should not endanger the tree. It has more important things that will hurt it -- like lack of water, sunlight etc. I have cut down many large trees (I worked for Asplundh) and found nails way inside the tree that were hammered in there 50 or 60 years ago and the tree stayed healthy and strong.
