Look how the feathers on the head and neck of this woodpecker shake with each blow. I am reminded of a dog shaking off water after a swim. Except with the woodpecker we can see the hard impact on the skull. I think it's fascinating how the tongue is rooted at the top of the beak and wraps the long way around the skull. The tongue head cushion might help a little but my head hurts just watching this video.
