Where are half of the body's bone located?

The majority of the bones in your body are your hands and your feet. Your wrist has 8 bones that link to 5 more in your hand, that link to 14 more in your fingers and thumb; total is 27. Your feet also have 7 in your ankle, heel, and midfoot; that connects to 5 more (metatarsals), and 14 in your toes. So between your hands and your feet you have 106 bones.


Are there more bones in your feet than anywhere else in your body?

No, there are not. It is true that your hands and feet together account for about half the bones in your body (unless you're a doctor, counting the number of bones is more complicated than you would think.... some bones usually fuse together as you grow, and in some people this never occurs with some of the bones for various reasons, so it's hard to be exact). The bones of the hand and foot are different in detail, but similar in overall organization... there are about the same number of bones in your hands as in your feet (which makes sense, if you think about it).
