I dont know, I'm sure engineers makingprostetics would consider such an important thing don't worry. Just because it's thin doesn't meant it's weak, there's all kinds of materials

Its likely using either steel wire or ballistic plastic which is more than strong enough to support a human and then some.

Yeah I'm reasonably certain the company that made that made sure it's strong enough otherwise they'd likely get sued.

Probably material and weight distribution make it possible. Prosthetics should be light weight too so that's why it's awesome
