I'm curious if you have ever used a bandsaw? Woodworking bandsaws just do not cut that fast. It would take multiple seconds of sustained pushing to get through all the meat and bone, it would be very painful and messy. You have a FAR better chance of cutting off your finger with a sharp common kitchen knife than a bandsaw.
Woodworking band saws will easily cut that fast. Perhaps not through a hard wood, but flesh and bone isn't as tough as a lot of woods. Go have a look at how fast a band saw will cut through an animal carcass. It's VERY quick.
