But we’re talking about a small compartment in a cave there might not have been standing room to even get enough torque
There has been some evidence that short range power punches can reach over half full swing capacity given a trained person, at which point a well trained athlete could exert in the range of 170+ lbs of force on an impact area when punching with limited arm range. I would like to think an active duty SAS would apply here, but I have no direct confirmation.
Now consider that amount of force, but focused into the tangs of a hammer. Like a dude jumping down on a hammer with the claws at vitals. I think it could be enough. Humans are delicate, yet extremely capable of massive trauma to others. It also depends on where. At the temple, it would be game over at far less.
