I'd do nothing with it :P I'd make sure I was a great distance away from it before anybody had any ideas about turning it on. This isn't even considering the fact the machine intentionally exploded when they activated it.

I'm an idiot, but not that big of an idiot.

Are you sure that power wouldn't erase the brain?

In my case, it's a risk I'm willing to take...

Stay far away, probably.

Any ferromagnetic particles that may be in the body, however small, could likely wreak havoc in a 1200 Tesla magnetic field.

No way would I go near it even if it didn't explode, I thought water is very slightly magnetic. I am very happy with my water where it is - thank you very much. HiHi

Nope, the oxygenated iron in blood is diamagnetic (weakly repels from magnetic field, it is not attracted by magnetic fields), see here:

Let's just say that my neighbor downstairs with the noisy PC gaming system would have a really bad day.
