An Australian astrophysicist who hoped to create a device to help stop people catching the coronavirus has ended up in hospital - after getting magnets stuck up his nose.
Dr Daniel Reardon came up with a plan to create a necklace which would react if your hands were near your face.

And you cant even use the old crunch and blow with magnets...
Maybe a piece of 1/4 rebar stuck in would get the magnet stuck to it ?
I shouldn’t really criticize him, I once got a ball bearing stuck in my nose.
I was only 3 at the time.
Tim Conway could have done that script with only a few props.
It would have been hilarious.
Right back at ya!
And it’s still spelled the same today.
Takes a light hearted post and thread and injects petty BS,(spelling) into it.

Same to you.
Pick up your sack and ping me the next time you want to slam me.
Ouch!
You want to DO a Science Fair Project

Just because it’s “cool” to walk into a room and have paper clips and other small metal objects suddenly attract to your nose does not mean it’s the right thing to do.
Later in that episode the intrepid firefighters had to go back to that house to remove the c at from Dad’s nose!
Dad was trying to figure out how the son did it, what a hoot:-)
I did not see that clip on youbtube

My wife once said that only men are capable of doing something that is monumentally stupid. Like what this guy did. Women dont have the capacity to be so extraordinarily stupid. Is that true?
In all fairness, he meant well...
