This movie, that had waited 8 years until the necessary special effects were available and another 4 more to film and edit, was a real challenge for the actors. Those playing Na’vi’s needed to wear cameras attached to their heads, as well as dots painted on their faces, so that the motion-capture software could record their facial expressions.
And as if acting with this apparatus was not enough, it is said that director James Cameron had a nail gun on set that he would use to nail cell phones to the ceiling if they rang. Confronted with it, however, he just laughed and said: “I really only threaten to nail gun the stuff”.

Hosea,
I can forgive a little anatomy confusion... but tendons are attached to the joints, and it's not hard to imagine them tearing near the joint.
