Take a hammer and strike concrete - it may chip, or possibly crack if hit hard enough. Use the same hammer on asphalt with the same force - you are much more likely to just make a slight indentation unless the ashphalt is warm/hot - them you will leave a distinct mark. Use the same hammer on a dirt trail and without much effort you can dent the surface. There is a difference!
Yes, but force applied is also different. Your feet are not hammers. Try the same experiment with a feather. Right? Sure, it is an exaggeration but so was yours.
