Paper Clip

If we passed an electrical current around a closed circuit to a lightbulb, the light bulb would come on. Put a break somewhere in the circuit and it will not. It's as simple as that. 

As you can see from the left portion of the picture below, the alignment of this 'circuit' is key in order for the energy to flow correctly.

In your body, the energy of your brain is conducted via electrical signals down the spinal cord and out through the nerve roots that exit between every one of your 24 vertebrae.

When your spine is 'worn-out' 'kinked' or 'bent' out of its normal alignment, then there is an increase in pressure upon one or more of these spinal nerves. Just like a circuit breaker, you get a power-cut. Power to your muscles, skin and joints is lost, sometimes even for just a split second, long enough to cause significant tissue injury as well as pain. 

So, next time you go to lift something fairly insignificant and your 'back goes', it was most likely the break in your spinal circuit that caused it.
