"Hitting a brick wall" hah! That's so funny because...

Sorry, I know you asked Sei here but...

In the real-world, physics speaking, martial artists CAN in fact do something like this. (If I understand the proposition correctly.) They focus, however, not as much on a "dead center" (I think) but on the weak spots of a target. For example, hitting the pressure points of an opponent, by hitting the carotid artery I believe you can knock someone out with one strike. Of course, there is also the, but I'm not sure how well-founded that is for real life. More pratically, however, is: think of every karate/taekwondo/what-have-you examination you've ever seen. Sure they have kata demonstrations and the like, but they also usually include the "board cracking", whatever that is called. You know, slamming your palm down on the weak point of a stack of boards with just enough force to split the stack in half.

Just throwing random ideas out there, no clue where I or you could even go with this... *ahem*
