Bruising and broken ribs are a long ways from stopping your heart or brain. It's not a case of whether energy does damage, of course it does. It's case of the degree of damage and your bulletproof vest example proves that nicely.
because the vest is specifically designed to spread out and absorb the energy? (Also, people do die, because most vests cannot stand up to the energy in the bullet on anything beyond handgun calibres.)

Magic? Stop your heart or brain? I dunno know, never claimed it was or would. but it'll knock you on your butt and put you in a world of hurt, so I don't imagine the deer enjoy it either.
