Last time I had a MRI I worried about the stailess rods in my back and the stainless mesh in my heart.

Good thing they were a type of stainless without ferrous content.

100% non magnetic stainless is extremely expensive and scarce. I had to retire due to magnetic fields in high voltage systems which I maintained (pacemaker)I also ran fluid systems that had stainless steel magnets inside to capture and catch fine stainless steel particles. So yes....most stainless is still magnetic to a much lesser degree than ferrous metals. Surgical stainless should not be. (316 Stainless)

Another interesting phenomenon happens when you run 4,160 volt current phased between plates spaced about a foot apart with a candle and flame in the middle. When the circuit is complete the flame from the candle will bend to a 90 degree right angle due to the rearranging or exciting of the atoms in the air.
