I wonder if that's the only thing that gets damaged. How do biological things fare on long durations of vibration?

There is something called vibration induced white finger. It was known as drillers finger too.

Yep, that traditionally happened after you had worked in a mine for years using daily a (air powered) drill or similar, though it has been recognized as a industry/work hazard only relatively recently, after the 1970's:
