The correct response is: **Yes, it would hurt because the bricks would still have the same mass.**
On the moon, the gravitational force is about 1/6th that of Earth's, so while the bricks would weigh less, their mass would remain the same. Therefore, if you were hit by a ton of bricks, it would still hurt due to their mass, even if they are lighter than on Earth.
