Great stuff, I love it.
One of the easiest examples may be the achilles tendon and the calcaneus. The talocrural joint (axes) lies a fair way infront of most posterior point of the calcaneus allowing a large ARM and therefore great forces can be reached.
Here is something I found on the web:http://www.cchs.usyd.edu.au/physteach/bone/.

Have a look at it.
