Nine-year-old
Mehmet Sumbul saw somebody doing the stunt on TV and decided to give it a go
himself.
Much
to his surprise he had the special power too and as the footage shows he can
put metal spoons and forks on his chest and back and they just stick.
The
youngster told local media that his body can also do the same trick with
screws, metal ashtrays as well as mobile phones.
Mehmet
lives with his parents, Huseyin and Aysu, in the city of Antalya on the south
western coast of Turkey. He told reporters: "I am seen as a strange
person. When I’m angry, my magnetic field becomes stronger. Now I have a fork and
a spoon on my body, I feel like a magnet."
"I
haven’t taken him to the hospital because he has no health issues.
The
phenomenon is sometimes referred to as ‘human magnetism’ and some have said
they can also attract other types of materials, such as glass, porcelain, wood
or plastic.
Many
mainstream scientists however believe that it is in fact nothing more than
unusually greasy skin.
