why not, its expensive after all, and lets be honest you aren't
It was being decommissioned, so they decided to have some fun with it.
Was that dry ice at the end?
Compressed helium as far as I know
MRI's use liquid helium, not compressed helium.
I wonder what would happen if they tossed in a guy with lots of piercings...

I'm sure anyone would play with a giant electromagnet if they had the chance,
including you.

It would hurt a lot I presume and they might even be ripped out, if they were magnetic of course.
It's fucking weird to see a bunch of professional white coat guys just fucking around with a machine like that.

Liquid helium is used to cool the magnets in a MRI.
I wonder how often this happens.

not often

No I don't do that shit. I work at a major hospital, and often deliver patients to the MRI and often help prep them for it. It's very dangerous to do what the docs are doing in the above video.
In order to take out the objects the machine has to be turned off -- wait a really long time -- take out the objects -- turn it on -- wait even longer time.

Extremely rare, but there is one case of a boy being killed by an oxygen tank that was yanked out of an anaesthetist's hands and into the scanner.

Of course you wouldn't on an operational scanner, but this one's being decommissioned. They quench the magnets at the end of the vid.
Fucken magnets how do they work?
The music is just so unfitting.
[quote]As its name suggests, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system has a magnet at is core. This magnet is so powerful it can suck metal objects into the tube (and out of a person's body).
