Supermagnet #33, The Obliterator. Pull force: 800 pounds.
What is there to say except, "I really, really want one for my next walking tour of Microsoft!" And to perfect my "levitation device," not to mention answering the door at Halloween! Plus they would be just the thing for a visit to my local polling place in Queen Anne, Seattle on election day. A clear case of going beyond my vote cancels your vote. Yeah, and those of your little dog, too!
United Nuclear - Neodymium magnets Pitch Sheet, emphasis added:
If you really need unbelievably powerful magnets, here they are.Posted by Vanderleun at February 23, 2008 2:21 PM | TrackBackUses include magnetic steering of nuclear particles in accelerators, levitation devices, magnetic beam amplifiers, scrap iron separators, etc.
Beware - you must think ahead when moving these magnets.
If carrying one into another room, carefully plan the route you will be taking. Sensitive instruments like computers & monitors will be affected in an entire room. Loose metallic objects and other magnets may become airborne and fly considerable distances - and at great speed - to attach themselves to this magnet.
If you get caught in between the two, you can be severely injured.
These magnets will crush bones in the blink of an eye.
Two of these magnets close together can create an almost unbelievable magnetic field that can be incredibly dangerous.
Of all the unique items we offer for sale, we consider these items the most dangerous of all. Our normal packing & shipping personnel refuse to package these magnets - our engineers have to do it.
This is no joke or exaggeration - and we cannot stress it strongly enough. You must be extremely careful - and know what you're doing with these magnets.
Two Supermagnets can very easily get out of control, crush fingers and instantly break ribs or even your arm if opposing poles fly at each other.
A small child recently lost his hand when his father left two # 31 supermagnets unattended. The child picked one up and when he approached the other magnet on a nearby table, it became airborne and obliterated his small hand.
Is it me or would these make a cool plot device in the next James Bond flic? The Bond Babe (the first one in each movie, who performs the same function as the Ensign in the Red uniform who beams down to the planet surface with Kirk, Spock and McCoy) works at the evil ex-Soviet Republic nuke facility. After the obligatory "Oh James!" canoodling her evil Boss (whom she is also canoodling) of course finds out and gives her a token of his Evil Genius Love, say a necklace with a steel pendant containing one of these cube magnets, and calls her into the plant for a meeting. He specifically instructs her to wear the necklace as he "wants to be reminded of her attraction." She walks through a room where some of these 800lb pull babies are in the walls behind the sheetrock. As she walks through the room these come flying out of the walls and slam into her from all sides...
