Patient’s name: Clay Moore.
Wow: Balls of Steel AND Darwin Award at the same time…
A little metal wont kill you. It will ruin the image.
Metal will ruin a CT scan. Metal will kill you in an MRI machine.
But that’s zinc shot… It doesn’t even look like steel. It shouldn’t be attracted to a magnet. Perhaps they’re steel inside, but the outside is clearly zinc.
Isn’t that just because they use non-magnetic metals for implants?
Titanium, afaik
And that’s zinc shot. Perhaps they’re steel inside, but the outside is clearly zinc.
How on earth can you tell the difference between steel and zinc at a glance?
In general, metallic orthopedic implants are not affected by MRI.
This isn’t an implant though. Massive difference.
I soon expect to have screws implanted in my spine. I also have other infirmities. I hope like hell to never have screws ripped through my vertebrae by an MRI.
Ugh, yeah, how do they even do MRIs for people with metal parts?
Non ferrous metal.
I think, as someone else said, things installed into the body are usually titanium and thus non ferrous. Fortunately they don’t generally cause issues with MRIs as a result.
(I only know this because when I broke my ankle, during the pre-surgery interview, I asked the surgeon about going through metal scanners at an airport.)
Metal in a CT machine = bad image
Metal (particularly ferromagnetic metal) in an MRI machine = injured patient
Check out the stapler bouncing around near the beginning of this video: https://youtu.be/6BBx8BwLhqg
I think its not about the property of beeing a metall ist a bout beeing ferromagnetic (In that case probably not an issue because these bearing balls are usually out of some kind stainless steel. )
These aren’t bearing balls. They’re zinc shot. Perhaps they’re steel inside, but the outside is clearly zinc.
We get it, zinc shot man.
Without any milk? Hardcore
You add your milk before the ball bearings? Wtf is wrong with you?
Finally:
Reverse shotgun
Front Toward Enemy
Doctors HATE this funny prank
am I dumb
oh no wait i understand now
I need more cake
I wonder if that would actually do damage. I think it would be painful at least.
Omg… except I call bullshit on the “speed of sound” claim. That would have been the equivalent of being hit by a 30mm round at 700 mph. That person would have been killed immediately.
hopefully the company that advertised it as 100% silicone is sued into oblivion and folds and the people responsible suffer real consequences
I fucking hate false advertising.
