No idea. Looks like the sort of thing you'd need to see someone do to understand those instructions, or else just keep fiddling with them until you figure it out for yourself.

Just keep messing around with them, if you can stay awake. You'll figure out the 'tricks' pretty quickly. Personally, I got bored sick half-way through the second clip. That noise that they make is also very annoying.

I was looking away while the video loaded, little did I know that my volume was turned all the way up...

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL ROFL I've seen those before, they're like black hematite, and are commonly called "oidz."

This is how you do it:
Hold one in each hand, and throw them up in the air so that they meet.
Make sure you catch it when they fall.

ITS SO FUN! I COULD DO IT FOR HOURS!

Seriously, that's what you do. At their apex, the magnets end up spinning and vibrating around each other very fast, and make an interesting loud noise. I like that toy a lot.

Another fun way you can do it, is to place them parallel to each other on a table, and within each other's reach, realease your grip.

Here's the site:

Those videos are awful. Do they think those will actually help sell the things? The videos make them look like nothing more than an upgrade on a pet rock.

...what a let down, the way they described it sonded like it could do cool things, all that stuff was kinda obvious

[tribdog]

They're shiny and have a cool shape so they make more noise. As the first link suggested, they're for fidgeters. Not so much a toy as something to keep your hands busy if you're prone to mutilating paperclips while sitting around reading stuff or whatever. At least, that's what they look like to me. They seem like a great way to really annoy a roommate who likes complete quiet for studying.

I still can't believe people buy these, I should make my own awesome magnetic toys...
