The spine protects the central nervous system. It encases and protects the spinal cords and the multitude of nerve roots within it. Other than providing structural support and movement capability to the torso, it's only purpose is the protection of those very delicate parts of the nervous system which must connect the extremities of the human body (such as your legs) to the brain.

∙ 14y agoYour backbone, or your spine, protects the bundle of nerves that run through the center of the discs that make up your spine. These nerves branch off through most of your body, controlling most of the vital parts of your body. This is why when someone breaks their back, they can quite possibly lose the use of their legs, due to damage done to the nerves.
