See, it will still pull these metal things. Yeah. It's pulling them because they're made of iron or steel. See, now you've learned something, Pierrot. A magnet will only pull something that is made of iron or steel. See? These things are iron or steel. Oh, you didn't break the magnet. What? Huh? Oh, no, it won't pull a puppet.
