If you drop a brick from a height of (50 mathrm{~mm}) onto your toe, it probably won't

Question:

If you drop a brick from a height of $50 \mathrm{~mm}$ onto your toe, it probably won't hurt much, but if you drop the brick from a height of $0.5 \mathrm{~m}$, it will hurt. The force of gravity exerted on the brick is the same in both cases. Explain why it hurts more from the increased height.
