With the use of magnetic shielding, you can make a monopole magnet. I work with metal all day at work and have always carried a magnet in my tool kit to take metal out of my eye or the eyes of some of my colleagues. It works great unless you get the metal in deep, as my magnet is not super strong.

@
Bizarre! ❤

Before I even watch it, that thumbnail gave me chills. Bad wreck last year left something very similar in my eyeball.

In 1984 I had a sliver of metal in the iris of my left eye. Removed by a magnet by a eye surgeon during an office visit.

I seriously learnt loads from this so thank you Mike 🛸👽🖖
@
So, leaving a magnet in a car that might reach 130 degrees F will ruine a magnet that is only affected by temperatures above 300 degrees? Not mathing out, Mike.
@
Don't carry anything with a magnet in your purse with your debit card. It will demagnetize.

Be nice if you use both metric and imperial measurements

I have a magnet in my head, I have a cochlear implant.

The other day I was grinding metal to make a special size wrench 🔧 that fits onto a weird nut on an axle. I didn't realize the grinding bit I was using was creating little razor sharp steel splinters of metal shavings. When I went to brush the metal shavings off my hands by rubbing them together 👏. I painfully embedded about 20 .metal splinters into each hand.
I began to worry & wonder how the heck I was going to get them out.
So I carefully lathered my hands up in soapy water.Trying to touch things or press hard with the soap because it was painful..Some of the slivers got pulled out by the bar of soap 🧼 & got embedded in the soap bar.
Then I used a strong neodium magnet 🧲 and it thankfully was able to remove the lubricated splinters out of my skin. I think the warm water & soap really helped the magnet 🧲 pull em out.

You forgot to account for your magnetic personality, Mike! 😉
