Darts are counted as stubble - All these verses state that he cannot be wounded by any kind of weapon, and that he cannot be resisted by any human strength. A young crocodile, seen by M. Maillet, twelve feet long, and which had not eaten a morsel for thirty-five days, its mouth having been tied all that time, was nevertheless so strong, that with a blow of its tail it overturned a bale of coffee, and five or six men, with the utmost imaginable ease!

Darts are counted as stubble - The word rendered "darts" (תותח tôthâch) occurs nowhere else in the Scriptures. It is from יתח, obsolete root, "to beat with a club."

The singular is used here with a plural verb in a collective sense.
