Please do not buy these if you have small babies and children. Not only choking hazard but also hazardous if swallowed. Saw a report on a baby who swallowed and shredded her internal organs due to strong magnets whipping around internally.
BuckNekkidThe magnets do not "whip around internally". The danger from swallowing comes from the magnets potentially sticking together across intestines, causing pinching and tearing of the intestines. Spreading misinformation about the possible dangers of magnet ingestion is not only not cool, it's also potentially actively harmful.
If you want a decent magnet set sold by a responsible company to responsible consumers, Zen Magnets and Neoballs are what you're looking for. They have a ton of information on the dangers as well as responsibly package their products.
These magnets are many things to many people. They can be a building tool, a fidget or stim thing, or even just some nonsense to keep on your desk at work... but they should NEVER be considered a toy. Never put them near your mouth and ensure they're stored safely away from small children and babies who are not yet able to understand the dangers of magnet ingestion. The packaging on all Zen and Neoballs products contains warnings about all of this.
Don't just post in every magnet drop with your fearmongering, @BuckNekkid. Educate yourself and help people learn how to use magnets safely and responsibly.
Ayynojust be careful is what I’m saying and yes they whip around the inside when they come into contact with another magnet and anything metal that is attracted to magnets. It’s not mis-information. this is for those who were thinking about getting them of course they are allowed to buy them. They should be aware. Thank you kindly.
