My dad is a magician, and has this hugely powerful magnet he uses for psychokinetic type effects. It will fit nicely inside a cigarette packet, and is frighteningly powerful - it's neodynium or something, and comes with all sorts of warnings. If you have two of them and catch your finger between them, you're looking at a broken finger. Anyway..

By putting this magnet inside a cigarette packet and placing the cigarette packet over the middle lane of the pinball machine, it was possible to play for ever. When the ball went to fall down the lane, it would stick to the magnet, and could be dragged back up to anywhere you liked on the board. It's amazing how boring pinball can be when you play it for this long, but I'm sure some of you pinball fanatics could have fun with it.
