Though technically it doesn't break, just stretches.

Yeah, it's like it selectively stretches/warps around the object, rather than being torn by it.

Pretty cool - more or less the basic beginnings of the cool electric Batcape in the Dark Knight (the carbon fiber skeleton that activates with electricity).

Or like clothes made of tiny ropes where the weave is lose enough to pry your finger through, and with a little rubbing the hole closes again (only this is on Nano level and the stretching out is impressive.

Though I nature something usually gets torn, shredded or cut (by thorns) instead of 'nicely' penetrated.
