So if it takes 1485 newtons to cause fractures (obviously greater force is required to completely sever through the entire fingers) then it does not take the same force to bite through a finger as a carrot. In 200 jam positions, 25 fractures were observed on radiographs fractures occurred at an average force of 1485 N. According to this study done in 1956 (Jamming of fingers: an experimental study to determine force and deflection in participants and human cadaver specimens for development of a new bionic test device for validation of power-operated motor vehicle side door windows) cadavers bones were tested at maximum applied force of 1886 N for the index finger and 1833 N for the little finger. There are a lot of factors that contribute to mechanical failure, applied force is only one :) It's similar to trying to bite a rubber band instead of a carrot. You'll still have to bite through skin, tendons, and some flesh. There are cases of fingers being bitten entirely off, but such an act requires extraordinary force, far greater than 200 newtons of carrot-cutting power. Biting through a finger requires so much force that attempts often lead to partial-amputation a bite that doesn't completely sever the finger. This is well within the normal limits of the average person. It requires less than 200 newtons to bite through a raw carrot. A human adult’s maximum biting force ranges from 520-1,178 newtons depending on factors such as age and gender.
