Most
powerful Human Magnet-world record set by Aurel Raileanu
[Sep 20] BUCHAREST, Romania -- Aurel Raileanu, a hospital
worker has set the world record for the most powerful Human Magnet-he
can lift a 57.320 lbs. (26kg) TV set. Aurel Raileanu, known as The
Human Magnet for his extraordinary ability, can even make a
57.320 lbs TV set cling to his chest without the aid of wires, blue
or string.
The 40-year-old bachelor, who lives with his
mum, claims he doesn’t know how he becomes a magnet for objects.
But he explains that first he focuses his mind
on something, then releases the feeling of magnetic attraction that
makes even the heaviest item stick to him.
He can pick up electric irons using just
his skin’s bizarre ability — and he can clear a table of cutlery
faster than an army of waiters.
Aurel Raileanu admits he cannot explain his
gift, which allows many objects — not just metal — to stick to his
chest, neck and forehead.
He says: “I tend to keep it secret from people
in my home town because I am afraid of being branded a freak in
their eyes.
