Wow, check this out - a live frog floating in a magnetic field!
From: http://www.hfml.science.ru.nl/hfml/froglev.html "The molecular magnetism is very weak (millions times weaker than ferromagnetism) and usually remains unnoticed in everyday life, thereby producing the wrong impression that materials around us are mainly nonmagnetic. But they are all magnetic." "The small frog looked comfortable inside the magnet and, afterwards, happily joined its fellow frogs in a biology department."
Good Luck!

Oh yea, I can just see it now. The chosen one, tells the other froggies of his experience and pretty soon he forms a cult of believers, this turns into a religeous movement among frogs, after a few frogs escape from the labratory the word soon spreads to the world wide frog community................ Or maybe they just kill'm and eat'm?

It kinda lends credence to body and fuel line magnets but I doubt they're strong enough to produce much effect. That frog is in an incredibly strong magnetic field. That ain't no MRI machine.
I and my closest associates who are good eggs in the Church of the Latter Day Snakes were very fascinated to read a reporting of your experiment with a powerful magnet and a frog in The Independent, of Saturday, 12 April, 1997. You claim that you are able to levitate a frog and even fish and plants too by means of your machine. We in the church are not scientists, we follow the spiritual path, and so do not understand this business. Does it work, or is it merely just hokum and bollocks? Please do not think I am rude when I ask this question, but you know there are many charlatans and those who sell snake oil, like in the John Wayne film.
We have a big interest in this machine if it works and I will tell you this subsequently, but first I would like to know certain answers.
How big is this magnet, and can it be concealed beneath a floor, perhaps? It is important for our ideas that it can not be seen. Will it work if there is wood there? And the floor nails. Will they mess up the magnet?
Does it make much noise, and if so is it a loud noise? A quiet hum would be alright of course because we have a Hammond organ.
We are interested naturally in levitating bodies. Must they be naked bodies, or can they have clothings? You say they would have to be lying down but that would be alright at a pinch. Does it hurt, and can you bing the body back down without damages, because it will be me doing the levitating. I am quite large being 22 stone weight, but my mother says I have heavy bones! No, joking put aside, most of me is liquid I think and I am not very dense so maybe that is good for your machine. Please answer me first these questions and then you are my friend. I must trust you first before we do business. For you, you must be interested to know that our church is very rich. We have nearly twenty five million pounds in gilt edge securities and properties in Essex and Kent, so if everything is good we want to buy your machine for one million pounds, which would be a good price. So you know what I have in mind I will explain a little perhaps.
Our church was founded in 1905 by Alfred Muzzlewhite, but after he died it was not the same and in 1950's it all went belly-up. The good news was that all the money was still in the banks. In 1995 I am coming from Norway and I make the church go again. We have many followers in Wiltshire, but we want many more in all Britain. Funny, hah? We have all this money, and we have the One True Word to save the world, but we have to do magic tricks to get the peoples to listen! But this is why we need your machine.
I hope you don't have a problem with that. I know in our church services if we pull back the curtain in the Snake Chamber and I start to rise up from the ground and then (slowly and gently!) come back down again I will get many more to join the church, so this will be very good and explains to you my plans. It is important if we do this deal that you do not tell anyone of course. But a million pounds buys a lot of hush-hush, as James Cagney says in his film, although then for him it was dollars.
I have only one other question. I have been reading in The Times about the Natural Law Party and they also do levitating. I wonder have they been in touches with you as well? When we are partners perhaps you can tell me. Please do not sell them a machine. They are very bonkers and very dangerous to boot. And also. It says in the newspaper that you will be using the machine to test chemicals and systems in space. You must not be doing this! Science. PAH!! You have a gift. Many are called but few are chosen. Your machine must be used for GOD!!
p.s. I am interested also to write to your friend at the University of Nijmegen Andrey Geim because it was his idea first, althought I cannot give you a million pounds each! When is he in Bradford on Avon, or can I visit him in Holland? Or can you give me his address so I can write to him?
I look forward to your early responses,
Olaf van Haarve
The Snakehead.
I put in five pounds for you Professor Main as good faith. Of course I would like a receipt please but you can put in "petrol" or "stationary" or whatever is good for you. This is only the start.

Originally posted by Wht&BluGT: History Channel had a modern marvels episode about magnets and they showed that. I think it was at Florida State or something like that.
