A 7-year-old Serbian boy named Bogdan is attracting media attention for his apparent ability to attract other things, such as silverware, remote controls, plates and even a large frying pan. The objects seem to miraculously stick to the boy's skin. Bogdan's family claims he's magnetic, and an MSNBC reporter who filmed him in action says it's true. This is all bogus according to Benjamin Radford, editor of the magazine Skeptical Inquirer. He says the big problem is that plates are not metal.......nor is the remote control.
