If you are too stupid to follow the safety requirements for being in the same room as an MRI scanner then bad things can, and sometimes do happen.
Leandro Mathias de Novaes was a 40 year old Brazilian lawyer who was known lawyer was known for posting pro-gun content to his 12,000 followers on TikTok.
In January he was accompanying his mother for an MRI scan at the Laboratorio Cura in Sao Paulo in January. Anyone who has been near an MRI machine will know there are lots of signs warning against taking metal objects near the machine. There are people with baskets to collect all the metal items. The genius lawyer entered the facility with a concealed handgun.
Even though staff repeatedly warned about metal objects Mr Mathias kept his weapon on his waistband.
When the MRI was activated the magnetic field from the machine was so strong that the gun was pulled from his waist and fired off a round, which hit him in his stomach. Despite being treated in hospital for over two weeks, he died from his wounds.
Unfortunately he doesn’t even have consolation of a Darwin Award as he has already passed on his genes to his daughter.
