The bigger ones can hit like a 22 and have enough power to crack glass.

Yep. It can hurt and cause damage. If you toss one in a standard 10g tank there's a chance it'll break through. They're no joke.

Got hit by just a teen, about 5”.
Felt like a burning sensation and found a 3cm circle of skin gone on my finger.
Hurt for a week.

Welcome to Reef2Reef!
I actually saw this old video from Smarter Every Day recently which raised my eyebrows… I don’t think I’ve ever seen video evidence of a smashing mantis breaking glass, much less in slow motion!
