Hey Sup Forums, so after 6 years of reading about it, thinking about it, and talking about it, i finally decided to be about it. Implanted a neodymium magnet into my finger to be able to feel electromagnetic forces as a sixth sense.
So yeah, im an idiot who performed surgery on myself to implant a magnet, Ask me Anything.
Also did you coat the magnet in gold or something your body won't react to? If you didn't you're gonna have a bad time

if the vagina has piercings will it be pulled toward you
Ryder Collins
inspired by Lepht Anonym in some magazine years and years ago. And yeah, they are a bioproof nickel-chrome alloy. Though with the number of people breaking them and letting them reassemble on their own, i am pretty sure the neodymium itself is at least moderately bio-neutral
Jacob Robinson
awkward angle to take a photo but there ya go.
Jordan Taylor
1, just kind of a slight tugging, hanging shit off of it directly is like a 5 though since the wound is pretty fresh
Brandon Watson
and no bandaid, a straight pen stuck to it. i dont want to push it too much with the wound still pretty fresh. dont want it to pull out and its pretty tender.

Joshua Jones
was it worth it? I was thinking of getting it done myself, my work involves plenty of live wires and it'd be nice to know without having to whip out ye old detector
Adam Edwards
Any reason you chose to put it in the side of your finger rather than the tip? Also why that particular finger?
Also also, won't you like ruin your cell phone and other electronics and shit with that?
Jaxson Cruz
Did you sterilize the magnet before implanting it? Was this a household magnet or something specific?
Colton Phillips
Wont know for sure till it heals up, you get more sensitivity the more it heals. Fresh you can only feel really strong fields.
Henry Scott
what was the magnet coated in before you put it in?
Nathaniel Thomas
The idea is that you dont want it between the pad of your finger and the bone. to protect your bone and just for comfort. And nah, did plenty of tests with a hard drive and a credit card before i implanted one. the worst it will do it fuck with the compass on my phone.
Juan Moore
MOAR MAGIC OP TRY AND DO A SPOON
Sebastian Anderson
sterilized with chloraprep and iodine. Special ordered n52 neodymium magnet electroplated with a bio-safe nickel/chrome alloy
Gabriel Rodriguez
How'd you do it
Parker Reed
lmao op do magic shows and make easy money
Gavin Phillips
Did you implant it purely by yourself? If so, how?
Cameron Clark
NICKEL ALLOY!? Have fun with that degrading within a few weeks. Should have chemically plated it yourself in gold. Gold is one of the most biocompatible metals as most bodily chemicals can not break it down.
Jackson Wood
If you finger a girl you really would be a pussy magnet.
Joshua Evans
two youtubers have done the same (to my knowledge). Unoriginal faggot, both of them had to remove it for complications (infections) after 3-5 months.
Andrew Allen
PICK UP SOMETHING BIGGER MAGIC MAN
Logan Davis
Rip op
Aiden Hall
buy a bunch of magnet balls or whatever and do some tricks. metal bend.
Benjamin Ross
How old are you Op?
Connor Gutierrez
with a knife. Seriously though, i put a hairtie on the base of my finger, squeezed all the blood out of my finger till it was super pale, did a digital nerve block on it with lidocaine, thought about giving up, than did some slicing with a scalpel. made a little pocket, pushed the magnet in, and closed up the hole with a drop of surgical grade superglue
Camden Taylor
Humans and their guns smh
Jordan Edwards
Are you a bloody doctor or some shit?
Jack Martin
pretty sure the risk of metallosis from this is pretty overblown, in contact with quite a few people who had them break inside them, reassembled themselves, and left it that way for years with no complications. Also the alloy i used is the one that many replacement hips are made out of. They were both unoriginal, its been popular in the biohacking and grinding community since the early 2000's. and i know the one youtuber i saw had his shatter, that is why mine is significantly thicker and i did shatter testing before implanting it. 22
Chase Hughes
Nope, just a resourceful nerd.
Christopher Russell
Put a magnet in your cock
Isaac Reyes
Literal pussy magnet
Jose James
while it does have enough nerve endings to work properly, ill pass. If you check out the biohacking forums though, there is at least one person who did that.
Nicholas Gutierrez
did you boil the magnet? if not you're in for a bad time.
Adrian Williams
Elaborate
Kayden Perry
neodymium magnets are very temperature sensitive, if you boil them they lose their magnetivity. sterilizing with chloraprep and iodine the same way heat sensitive surgical instruments are is plenty adequate.
Jaxon Morgan

In some poor countries people are struggling just to put a few chunks of food into their move to survive. While over here, people gets bored and wondered how to put magnets into their fingers or dicks
James Howard
OH YEAHHH
Landon Price
You're a moron. There is no "sixth sense" - any apparent extra feeling you get is just the magnet pulling on your skin towards other stuff magnets are attracted to. The magnet cannot integrate with your nervous system. In all likelihood, as has been the case with the majority of this idiotic nonsense, your finger will get infected. You will then go to the doctor (do not try to fix it yourself) and explain why you were such an idiot. >tl;dr It would be much safer for you to just tape a magnet to your finger, or put on a glove with a magnet in one of the fingertips.
Jackson Morales
put a cock in your magnet.
Wyatt Perry
>spills coffee >surgery useless >goes to airport >gets flagged down >feel like dumbass
congrats
Aiden Nguyen
Because we never stopped to ask if we should.
Carson Fisher
If the magnet is inside you it feels like you are feeling the magnetic fields. If it's an external object it just feels like any other external object.
Brody Foster
well it is insulated by my finger now, I doubt spilling coffee on my finger will heat up the area right next to the bone to 200 degrees. And no problems with airports either, unless they start doing MRI's at airports and that would be a little time consuming.
Mason Reed
Faggots wanting to be dayus ex
Andrew Howard
That is bullshit. The magnet just tugs on your skin. Put on a tight glove, and you'll feel something nearly the same, without the risk of infection.
Joseph Phillips
So do you not plan to go to an airport anytime soon or?
Elijah Wright
not at all, maybe to strong static fields, but their reaction to alternating current electricity is nearly imperceptible to external touch.
Jeremiah Bell
when they scan for metal they will see some fucked up shit in your finger. explain then
Ethan Torres
The magnet more vibrates in response to moving fields. That's what you feel with a magnetic implant. It's not the same thing as an external object.
Brayden Richardson
They will think it's a bomb and rip OP
Chase Kelly
Wear a tighter glove. Even supposing you do feel something, what do you plan on doing with that feeling? It would be a useless sense, all trouble and no worth.
Xavier James
I walk through a metal detector every day at work, it didnt go off for a few of these magnets in my pocket so im sure im fine.
Anthony White
Where do you work? doubt it has as much security
Adrian Bennett
>things his workplace's metal detector is the same as an airport's metal detector
Brayden Ross
Sooo... why a magnet? Why not get something semi-useful like one of them new-fangled RFID chip thingys? What possible use is detecting an electromagnetic field with your finger when you can get a wristband that does the same thing?
Aaron Collins
What purpose would a RFID tag serve ?
Gavin Jackson
Well first off, im currently working as an electrician, so it is convenient to be able to feel where wires are behind walls, or instantly feel if something is live or not, without having to get a tool. And its fun to me. Why do anything but eat and sleep? its all useless. all trouble and no worth
Sebastian Gomez
The military, an aircraft carrier to be exact. Think im good.
Parker Lopez
so you work with lie wires with a piece of metal in your finger. ok op you fucking dumbass
Ian Parker
Why an RFID tag? i can get a stamp with the exact same functionality.
Sebastian Martin
Take off the baind-aid OP
Ryder Roberts
I dont think you understand how electricity works. Or how it flows through a person.
Jace Hall
Nothing external you do will feel the same. I'm not saying it's useful or worth it. I'm just saying it's comparable to another sense (we have more than five) and it is unlike an external magnet.
Logan Watson

Michael Fisher
everybody knows that metal is allergic to electricity, you moron
Camden Gray
Lots of stuff now. Use them to unlock the house, start the car, pay for stuff... umm... other stuff, I guess....
I did say semi-useful. More useful than sticking a spoon to your damn finger
Asher Hall
exactly, to feel it externally would take a MUCH bigger magnet anyway. mine have a .96 pound max pull, it would take like a 80 - 120 max pull to feel noticeable vibrations from standard AC.
Gabriel Davis

Christian Gonzalez
>Pay for stuff will be interesting explaining to the cashier
Caleb Cooper
allergic? Now im sure you dont know how electrical shock works.
Nicholas Howard
An nfc chip is next though, getting a group buy together with some people to bulk order some ones already encapsulated in glass.
Gavin Torres
OP you should replace your bones with steel rods
Anthony Kelly
some day
Thomas Russell
Magnets, OP, how do they work?
Luke Gray
OP is the start of the augs.

"So how will you be paying today, sir?" "By finger, thankyou."
But Hell, I know a dude who just puts his hand on the scanner. Uses an ATM the same way. And that's in Australia... we're practically 3rd world as far as tech goes.
