Can’t we just imagine it as a really strong wind that knocks you off your feet?

How do a bus that hit you kill you, it is just like a really strong push on one side of your body?
If you get hit by something that quickly accelerates you there is not a fundamental difference between something solid or a fluid.
So an impact of a shockwave from an explosion and a bus impact kill you in much the same way. You get pushed hard on now side of the body and when force travels through your body to accelerate another part they are stronger than the tissue can handle and it ger damaged/destroyed.
