      SuperShanko: I would think so because (as explained in a previous episode of Because Science) the hammer can be lifted but not wielded. That would mean that (since Thor’s hammer IS made of metal) with enough magnetic force, Magneto could lift Throg while Throg is lifting his little hammer.

      If I had the power to control all magnetic fields I'd call myself Magnetar, because then I could destroy anything by tearing away electrons its their atoms and converting it into a cloud of monatomic ions 😸
      I would just take over the universe at that point. But don't worry I'd be a benevolent dictator of the universe. Not like Magneto who thinks mutants are superior, I don't believe anyone is superior, everyone is equal. Equally below me.

    I always thought it was silly writing in that movie to have Magneto in a plastic cell as a means of preventing him from escaping.

    According to lore he can 'control' AND 'manipulate' magnetic fields. so he may not be applying a uniform magnetic field to extract the iron from the blood. Seeing as he is near/omega level, he may be able to oscillate and/or direct the field to only interact with the molecules in the blood.

      Going off of his power being able to manipulate magnetic fields and not simply great them wouldn't he simply manipulate the fields of the organic compounds to repel the iron. This would require far less power and be more true to the scene with the iron bursting out from his body.

    • @everythinggoodsfeckingtaken
      @everythinggoodsfeckingtaken Před 5 lety +64

      None of what magneto does is how regular magnetic fields work dude. Point is he makes them behave differently.
      Think: If magneto used his powers to pull an object towards him, the way magnets ACTUALLY work... every metal object in the same range would be under the same force.. so levitating wolverine like he did would probably lift half the people around him up by their belt buckles and zippers
      You never do the iron shavings around a magnet experiment in school? (pour a load around a magnet on some paper and they align with the magnetic field so you can actually see it.) A magnet is not simply a straight line force between A and B... Magneto is capable of mono/unipolar magnetism which in itself should be considered freaking amazing.

  • @nigeldepledge3790

    No, no, no and no.
    Our bodies are great at hoovering up iron when it's in the Fe (II) or Fe (III) oxidation states; but abysmally poor at converting Fe (0) (i.e., iron metal) into a water-soluble form. That process you assume to occur would take months, not merely a couple of hours.
    Since the injection Mystique applied was grey, not green or red, we know that the iron was indeed in the form of iron metal. We also know that it was in sufficiently small particles that it remained suspended in whatever carrier fluid Mystique used. Since Mystique needed the guard to be fit for work the next day, let's assume it was dextro-saline solution. On this basis, the iron suspension would easily mix with blood in any of the myriad capillaries in the gluteus maximus muscle.
    Thus, magneto didn't need to be neutron-star strong. The injected iron in the guard's blood would have been as nano-scale particles of metallic iron.

      No, the suspension is in his butt muscle, not his circulatory system. It takes time for the body to break up a bolus like the butt iron even as it must clear out the bolus of an intramuscular shot of vaccine, gamma globulin, or other intramuscular injection.

Magento could be a supervillain who can make anything change color to hot-pink, including Wolverine's adamantium claws, causing him to question his masculinity and suffer a complete emotional breakdown.

    Magnetokinesis: Magneto has a near-limitless control of all forms of magnetism, whether natural or artificial, to manipulate any metal. He can manipulate magnetic fields at the planetary level.
    Generating Magnetic Force Fields: He is able to generate a forcefield capable of repelling forces equivalent to a nuclear attack. He has successfully defended himself against Thor and his hammer Mjolnir, Iron Man's impressive array of weapons and the wielders of the Phoenix force. He has single-handedly fought against entire teams of heroes and villains.
    Magnetic Flight: By connecting himself to the magnetic field of the Earth, Magneto is capable of flight at supersonic speeds. He can also repel himself against the metals in the surface of a planet if the planet has no intrinsic magnetic field.
    Molecular matter manipulation: His magnetic field manipulations are so powerful he can reorder the molecular structure of matter by manipulating the electromagnetic force bonds.
    His control of his magnetic powers is so precise, he can manipulate the iron in a human's blood, causing aneurysms, strokes or heart attacks. He is even able to create a magnetic field strong enough to suppress the power of thought by suppressing the brain's electromagnetic field. It is likely the same magnetic field which makes him more resistant to psionic abilities.
    This is not an all inclusive list of Magneto's powers, it is designed to simply give you a matter of comparison against a device such as an MRI machine; there is NO CONTEST.

  • @ronaldtempel
    @ronaldtempel Před 6 lety +96

    Still this has left me with one question. What if the iron injected into the guard wasn't pure iron, but instead an iron compound that doesn't react with the body. The magnetic field created by Magneto should be able to extract it as long as the compound is magnetic and does not react to human cells. Right?
    What that compound consists of? No idea, I'm no chemist.

    • @kev3d

      How long does it take for the injected 25ml of iron substance to bond with the human molecules to weaken the magnetic force? That iron could still possibly be extracted in a certain amount of time. Out of 25 ml of iron, how much of that iron could be absorbed? Also another question, out of that 25 ml of iron, how much of it was actually iron? Maybe he should have been injected with more to get the 3 iron spheres in the proportions shown in the movie.

    • @dereseemdereseem
      @dereseemdereseem Před 5 lety +1

      A small jacket of an *inert* substance (rubber or silicone) would achieve a similar non binding, but if distributed enough a metal detector would need to be set very high to detect it. Maybe that works.

      Great episode. One Idea I'd like to pitch, I think that your right that Mystic did just inject iron into the Guard's butt and it remained localized there dispersed in his fatty tissue/muscle and Magento then simply moved that elemental iron in order to levitate the guard, killed him by destroying his internal organs with that iron and then pulled the iron out resulting in the accompanying blood mist. I think his statement about "too much iron in your blood" was simply word play or murder humor.

    • @lasarith2

      Nerdist my 😑 lack of biology knowledge, but I would have thought he would narrow the electromagnetic field into a directional flow, that he can cancel out any other field bar that one to pull the Fe out of his body, ~ also the National mag labs in Florida has a 45 Tesla electromagnet, last time I looked. Also while I think about it answering a question - it was probably a ferrofluid .

      Science doesn't care about you, your friend, emotions, or Because Science. Science is truth revealed. How the nature of things effects you depends on your situation. Applying movie physics to real world physics is interesting. It really doesn't take away from a good movie by analyzing it. I'll admit, it does take away from a bad movie to some extent. But, I go to the movies to suspend disbelief-if only for a couple of hours. If the science makes sense it helps sell me the movie. But, I'll watch stuff that doesn't make sense all day long as well. I'll watch a god swing around by throwing a magic hammer. I'll watch Godzilla destroy Tokyo for the tenth time. I can discuss the possibility of theses things happening, and the possibility of them happening the way the movie describes. But, I can turn my brain off long enough to enjoy a good movie and a really, really, really bad movie.

Anyway I like the theory that the goo was just some ferromagnetic compound that didn't integrate with the body and the blood is just the particles covered in blood. Although, when asked how powerful Magneto is, the old Marvel Handbook used to say "While not as powerful as the Silver Surfer in his prime, Magneto's power is for all practical purposes limitless."

    I've always thought it wasn't Iron per se, but instead some kind of Ferric compound such as Maghemite, or even nano-/micro-particles of iron with some kind of coating to stop it chemically reacting. I'm not sure what that would do to the maths though.

      @gimilijonnes Před 6 lety +1

      if the iron had some kind of coating, it would just make it pretty easy for magneto, cuz that way he wouldnt have to break bonds, then he would only have to apply a force field strong enough to lift that 20ml +- of iron

      He's also created a wormhole to cross from one end of the planet to the other instantaneously in the leadup to House of M. I'm pretty sure destroying molecular bonds to separate iron from blood is within his purview. It just takes surgical application of ridiculous amounts of power.

    • @neurhlp
      @neurhlp Před 5 lety +1

      yes, I assumed that too. Nanoparticles also have low bioavailability (at least short term), so the guard wouldn't die from iron poisoning. That would also explain that Magneto is not strong enough to rip the natural iron from blood, only the ferromagnetic nanoparticles. There is only one slight plot hole: the guard should have set off ferromagnetic metal detectors...

  • @andresrebata1958
    @andresrebata1958 Před 6 lety +135

    I think I have a solution! How about the iron mystique gave the guard didn't have the chance to bond with proteins in the body yet, so that would leave free iron which would require much less teslas. Another thing is maybe the spheres are empty inside so it would require much less volume of iron. But then, that wouldn't be epic lol

    • @ThatGuy_212
      @ThatGuy_212 Před 6 lety +26

      Andres Rebata I think if that was the case that the scan prior to the guard entering the cell would detect a large portion of metal in his but.

    • @andresrebata1958

    • @kenjett2434
      @kenjett2434 Před 6 lety +8

      C MT he didnt extract the iron from his butt. It was suspended in the blood stream where is mostly stored in the area of the vitals. Where in the movie we see t he most of it exstracted.?

    • @7Seraphem7
      @7Seraphem7 Před 6 lety +16

      This seems to be the most likely option. his body simply didn't have the time to bond all that iron. As to why it didn't set off the metal detector, while the iron wasn't able to be bonded to his blood yet, it was still injected into his blood stream and spread throughout his body, this diffusing it far enough that it didn't register as any one amount of magnetic substance over whatever the threshold is the scanner can detect.

  • @damsonrhea
    @damsonrhea Před 3 lety +4

    I always assumed that the butt-iron was in some sort of mad-"science" suspension liquid that let it float through the body without getting incorporated, since... well as you pointed out. If you can pull iron out of the blood, you can manipulate glass.
    Still, it's nice hearing exactly how absurd extracting iron from the blood is.

  • @Necroscat
    @Necroscat Před 5 lety +6

    Keep in mind Magneto can't just create magnetic feilds, he can also control them. So at the very least he should be able to manipulate the magnetic field so it only affects the area around the guard & nowhere else.

    First I really enjoyed your vid, truly fun to watch. I have a question, what if is the compound injected in the guard body isn't assimilated/digested but it stays in ferromagnetic iron as a coloid in his blood?
    This idea comes from the movie, you can see little balls going out through wound from inside out that finally form into the big three. I think would be possible to have a magnetic coloid in the blood, do you?

    Iron not only binds to hemoglobin (which is the most commonly thought of binding protein), but also binds to 2 other very important proteins: ferritin and transferrin. Ferritin is basically the body's reserve for iron and transferrin help transfer the body's iron stores to wherever it needs the iron. While I know this off the top of my head, I don't know if these two proteins also use the heme molecule to bind them, but if they don't, then this could alter the amount of energy required. Also, your body can only produce so much hemoglobin, transferrin, and ferritin. After a certain amount, iron may fully saturate all of those binding sites and simply accumulate in joints (as seen in hemochromatosis). Just a tid-bit of extra information :P .
