Best Answer

When your foot falls asleep, it is because the blood flow has been hindererd in some way and so your foot is not getting enough oxygen. This numbs the nerves which gives you that strange feeling, and paralyses the muscles so that your foot does not work the way its should.

If your foot is asleep can you break it walking?

Yes, you can break it. If your foot is asleep, it has nothing to do with your bones. No damage can be done to it by putting pressure on it. When your foot is asleep it is simply a lack of blood flow going into the certain body part thus lacking the necessary amount of oxygen to function properly (which gives you the tingly feeling). Just because you can't feel it doesn't mean you can't break it.
