Today I Learned that #scientists once tried to levitate a frog with magnetic field (and succeeded)

Only then was it strong enough to distort the orbits of electrons in the frog’s atoms.
“I have no mouth and I must scream.”
- The frog probably
The scientists said their frog showed no signs of distress after floating in the air inside a magnetic cylinder.
Either the frog doesn’t mind it or screaming is not a sign of distress
“The lab boys have told me that we have successfully levitated frogs and other amphibians using magnets, so good news is that we’re ready for human testing, bad news though is that if you have any tattoos, belt buckles, piercings, or potentially just iron in your blood, then these magnetic fields may rip you apart into a weird red mush. Even better news is that this is technically a business expense so the cleanup and your funeral are tax-exempt. Cave Johnson, we’re done here”
That’s the science we need
