How did he do it? Furze experimented with some weak electromagnets, finding that they weren’t strong enough to hold up his body weight. He mentions in a tutorial video that factory-made magnets are a bit too expensive for his taste, so he’d need a cheaper, or even free, alternative. Furze, being the efficient, industrious man that he is, happens to know that the transformer from an old microwave can be turned into a strong electromagnet. After some light welding turning his old sneakers into magnetic kicks, he’s ready to experiment. Lo and behold, it works.

"The transformer from a microwave oven can be used as a powerful electro-magnet". Hm, I got to write this down.
Thanks for the post! It's cool to see science employed into having fun instead of waging petty wars.

It's nice to see that innovative minds still exist. Even with the media's pseudo mind-control over the populous to tell us we're nothing without certain products, this guy is making his own way and thinking for himself.

Yes he seems to have a lot of time on his hands to copy cartoon inventions, wonder if he pays for all the stuff. The hand weapons sure look as useful as his walking on the ceiling shoes. Well guess he is having fun.
