Man implants magnets in arm to hold iPod in place

[Francis]

In the craze of doing stupid things in life, would you do something like this ?

Or would you let you children do something like this if they asked ?

Don't read this right after you've eaten. And definitely don't watch the video if you're faint of heart. A tattoo artist in New Jersey who really hates wrist straps implanted magnets in his arm to hold an iPod nano. And it worked.

Dave Hurban, a piercing artist based in New Jersey, recently became his own guinea pig. Using tweezers and a needle, he implanted four tiny magnets into his wrist. Spaced just so, the magnets adhere to an iPod nano. Hurban, shown on YouTube doing the procedure at Dynasty Tattoo in Newfield, N.J., calls the effect "iDermal."

body modifications like this are usually reversible...
I would rather someone do this, than say stretch their earlobes lol

Would i let my daughters do it?
If it didnt harm them and they wanted to do it... i would let them.

i always told my parents that if i had a child and they wanted to get tattoos i would let them so long as the tattoo was meaningful, wouldnt prevent them from getting a respectable job in the future or hurt them... and I really meant it!

I don't see the attraction

I wouldn't let my kids do it, but once they are adults, it's up to them.

I don't really see it as that big of a deal. Yeah, it's kind of weird, but other than that. :dunno

I guess its just me and seeing what "alterations" to your body can do to you..

Sure, for 5 maybe 10 years you feel barely nothing but when it starts to hurt and doctor have no freaking ideas how to resolve the problem, YOUR Fucked..

Its bad enough when they have to do it for medical reasons but when you do it just for fun, well you get what you deserve.. Just my opinion..

Is it much different to a regular piercing? I know people poke holes all over themselves and live to talk about it, though maybe the magnetic bits can cause some havoc....?

That's a little kooky, but it's really kinda awesome when you think about it.

On a side note, he's fucking hot and I would totally lick his tattoos, IJS :ninja

Well Nat maybe you can get some magnets inserted too and be naturally attracted to each other......

Heh heh. He's seriously just about perfect as far as what I like in men, physically. I think snakebites on a man are fucking sexy, IJS
