British schoolchildren simulated piercings by putting magnets on one side of their body (in their cheek, say), and steel balls on the other side. The magnets are so powerful that they are cutting off circulation and causing major, potentially fatal health problems.
n trying to give themselves fake lip piercings, several children let the magnets slip down their throats, and in one case sections of a nine year-old girl's gut were clamped together by a pair of magnets she had swallowed, causing potentially fatal perforations in her intestine.
