This is like a salesman's claim – only half of the truth. If you exert the equal force of 10 men holding them at bay with a long lever – as long as you are standing still it's true (albeit not comfortable) – your force equals that of 10 guys. But if you want to push them back, you have to go 10x their distance, at full force.
