> I mean the amount of clips I see on the youtubes of people breaking walls make me cringe. A wall should break you, not the other way around, :D

Why? I think calculating heat loss, noise levels, wireless signals, fire resistance, ecological cost, etc would be decent metrics to judge the merits of a wall.

But if you are living in civilization, I do not see why the wall withstanding the impact of a body is something I should care about. Also, there is almost always an external envelope of exterior siding plus plywood sheathing that I have never seen penetrated by an individual without tools.
