Human magnetism information


A man with a hammer stuck to his skin

Human magnetism is a popular name for the supposed ability of some humans to attract various objects to their skin. People alleged to have such an ability are often called human magnets. Although metal objects are the most prevalent material of attraction, some "human magnets" are also able to stick other types of materials to their skin, such as glass, porcelain, wood or plastic as well as metals with no ferromagnetic properties, such as brass and aluminium.[1] However, none of the recorded claims of human magnetism corresponds with the physics of magnetism.[1][2]
