Paddle strength?

hi,
Started wondering if paddles actually get broken other than when somebody accidentally steps on them in camp, or other dry accidents.
So, has anybody been able to break his/her paddle by paddling? How did it happen? What material, weight, kind was the paddle in question?
Rocks certainly, pushing off the bottom, could do it. But what about braces, stern rudders, or rolling?
I thought I'd post this here, not on the techniques BB, since I guess it's to see if some paddle constructions are more vulnerable than others that I ask. After all, pretty much anything can be broken by stepping on it, if its lying on rocks.
