Jesus overturned the tables and drove out the animals with a whip. It doesn't say He laid a finger or a whip on any human being.

I personally love that scene. I suspect that by the time the furniture started flying, the business class was already out the door and dialing 9-1-1.

John 3:
13And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
14And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:
15And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables;
16And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house an house of merchandise.

I can’t imagine making a scourge and “driving them out” with it without the cords making contact.

Make that John 2.
