      magnets are always on so person would be pulled as approach not suddenly ripped out in machine

      magnets are just not that strong or people with like metal filings in skin would be turned into bloody mess. We’re talking all machinists here

      not really possible to make magnets that strong for a number of reasons. Stuff that accelerates things bigly uses many.

      magnetic field is in the tube, which is why it works. Shit pulled towards middle

      therefore belief in bum Gauss gun requires magical MRI machine.

        Why are you spounting this half-coherent nonesense?

        magnets are always on

        No, MRIs use electro magnets which can be turned off. But they are on most of the time

        so person would be pulled as approach not suddenly ripped out in machine

        Yes the metal would be pulled towards the machine as they approach, but the magnetic force quickly becomes much stronger inside the machine

        magnets are just not that strong

        There are different magnets of different strengths, and scientists in labs are constantly pushing the limits, trying to make stronger ones. And the ones in MRIs are really freaking strong, that’s why these machines are so expensive

        or people with like metal filings in skin would be turned into bloody mess. We’re talking all machinists here

        Yes machinists are at risk, metal workers are specifically mentioned on this website:

        https://www.radiologyinfo.org/en/info/safety-mr#fff2f44ba7624ad1a1ac3b91ab12b599

        Items that may create a health hazard or other problem during an MRI include:
        A metallic foreign body located within or near the eye (such an object generally can be seen on an x-ray; metal workers are most likely to have this problem)

        No they are not blended to a pulp, but yes they can be injured

        not really possible to make magnets that strong for a number of reasons

        What reasons? MRIs use superconductors cooled with liquid helium to overcome electric resistance

        magnetic field is in the tube, which is why it works. Shit pulled towards middle

        ? Yes MRIs do infact work
