Yup that is indeed what would happen. But the panel of the clean up crew needing therapy is missing
Eh. Depends on the coins. If they’re made of ferromagnetic metals, sure.
Not all coins are.
My thought was they would just heat up.
Yeah, from what I have heard, given a random unknown metal, the odds are significantly greater that heating up is the concern rather than it being pulled out. Either one is a pretty bad day though.
Any day now we’re going to see an advertisement where someone drinks water, dry instant noodles, and coins and walks to the MRI room (before being stopped to talk about some self cooking option)
Like this classic KD ad https://youtube.com/watch?v=iEN2n9bGijI
Or this
I’ve forgot small copper coin in my pocket and gone to mri and I’ll tell ya what) coin was HOT and slightly pulled so it fell off my pocket, i was scarily surprised because I’ve checked my pockets as I’ve been instructed and metal detector didn’t singled either
There actually was a guy who wore a buttplug with a metal core in an MRT. The plug shot through his body like a high velocity bullet and was stopped by his sternum. He survived with severe internal injuries and sued the company selling the plug.
If the plug was advertised as being pure latex or whatever, then fair enough.
Yeah, that was exactly the case. Still weird to think “hey, I have this medical check-up today, better wear my best plug!”
Especially a medical procedure where they will see that you have a butt plug in
Maybe that’s his kink
Want to know how one would figure out they have a kink that specific
Maybe they forgot? Lol
Coming up next on Mythbusters…
People like that guy is the reason some MRIs require you to walk through a metal detector first. People are stupid and will ignore safety measures all the time.
Sounds like that guy wasn’t being stupid though. He didn’t know it had a metal core.
The comics here seem to be getting worse every day.
Kids these days dont know coins are not magnetic
If the coins are magnetic that’s what would happen. But if you’re going to violently tear a hole in your abdomen, the hospital is where you want to do it. I’d say there’s a fair chance you survive and live a medically complicated life
I think your chances of surviving this are similar to your chances of surviving a shotgun blast to the stomach… Even in a hospital it’s not good
Trying to recreate Alien (1979) is never a good thing.
y tho

They wanted to have their reserves in case of an attack by koloss or shardbearers
Dumb ways to die. So many dumb ways to die…
Duuuumb ways to di-i-ie Soooo maaaany dumb ways to die
Copper and nickle are magnetic?
I have shrapnel in my leg, it’s copper and brass, and I have had MRIs with no ill effects. Fucks up some CAT scans and xrays, but only if they are scanning that leg. It’s so small, though, that modern metal detectors don’t register it anymore.
I don’t think most coins are magnetic. They might get rather hot tho
i kinda want this to be the punishment for proven/repeat conviction child molesters.
If it’s magnetic resonance imaging, then if your magnetic resonance matches the MRI’s, you’ll just shatter like an opera singer breaking a crystal glass.
Sounds like a Bunny Suicide
Wouldn’t the coins also potentially become deadly projectiles
Ferrofluid would be interesting In this situation.
