8. The Worlds Most Powerful Magnet

Some magnets are more powerful than others. The most powerful on our planet is a manmade magnet that is found in the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Florida. It is 22 feet tall, weighs 34 tons, and produces a magnetic field of 45 Teslas.

This makes it approximately 2-million times stronger than the type of magnet you will find holding up your kids drawings on the fridge. It is also 10 times stronger than an MRI machine. Magnets of this strength are generally used for science experiments that help us to understand the workings of our universe better.
