Smashing a creature against a wall at a specific speed is dependent on the square/cube law, since the kinetic energy is proportional to the creature's mass, but that kinetic energy is being spread out over a proportionately greater cross-sectional area than a larger creature. That's why a cat can survive a fall from pretty much any height.
