Swallowing a magnet, especially the world's most powerful one, could be extremely dangerous and potentially fatal. Magnets can attract and trap other metal objects in the body, such as pieces of swallowed food or other magnets, which can cause blockages in the digestive tract and lead to serious injury or death. The magnet can also have an effect on certain medical devices like pacemakers, that can cause serious health problems. If a magnet is swallowed, it's important to seek immediate medical attention.
