Floating ribs (ribs 11 and 12) are more easily broken than attached ribs because they are not connected to the sternum in the front, making them more vulnerable to lateral impacts. Their reduced protection from surrounding muscles and ligaments also makes them more susceptible to fractures from direct trauma or crushing forces. Additionally, the flexibility of floating ribs makes them less stable compared to attached ribs, increasing the risk of injury.
