*Oh, hello. In case my rambling and Prof's...questions were a bit confusing* Magnetite is the most magnetic of all the naturally occurring minerals on Earth. It is everywhere, and forms from the cooling of lava, asteroid impacts, etc. "Lodestone" is the strongly magnetized version of magnetite, and was humanity's first contact with magnetism (it was used for our first compasses, hence "lode" or "leading" stone). The leading theory...ugh...is that lodestone is a result of lightning strikes. BUT WHY PROF? WHY? Because the intense heat can make the atoms in the mineral moveable again, and the intense electric field creates a magnetic field to which the electron spins in those atoms align. This is the exact process we use to make all the magnets you're familiar with. We find suitable minerals, powderize them, shape them with heat in a mold, and then heat them up again to a certain temperature (the Curie Temperature). Right then, we zap them with an INTENSE magnetic field generated by a giant spike of electricity. This aligns the magnet, and when it cools down, the alignment is maintained. Almost every magnet you've ever seen is man-made. So yes, the Earth's only natural magnet may be made by lightning, but other minerals are magnetic and not magnetized in this way, and man-made magnets use manageable electricity.

[@capt.cheesecake6875]

This has to be the most enlighting (get it?) and funniest video I've have ever seen! Seeing Kyle lose his marbles and Prof obsessively talk about lightning = stuff was amazing! Shoutout to the editiors and producers as well, what an amazing video! FYI: I would like to add, as a physicist, that lightning rods are probably (we don't strike rods with lightning where I study, so it's an educated guess) NOT magnetic and so paper clips won't stick to it. The purpose of a lightning rod is for it to "stuck to ground" or be "grounded", however you wanna call it, which means it's 'surface charge' is 'sent' to the ground. So, with no surface charge, there's no associated electromagnetic field that can be felt or interacted with by the clip after the lightning hits it, so no electromagnetic field = no magnetism felt by the clip. But being fair to the prof, in an instant, like nanosecond, in which the lightning hits the rod, it may be magnetic and attract the paper, but only for a nanosecond! Before the charge is taken to ground, so maybe the prof was also correct, but please don't stand near a lightning rod with a paper clip to test this...

[@Genrroo]

this was fun and educative at the same time, the Proff and Kyle should do this on many other subjets. SO MUCH FUN haha

As someone with just a AS with honors in applied science of electronic engineering this was great and had me in stitches. I really hope to see you at the the next WA area Command Fest like I did at the last one years ago. Okay I have to say a few things after finishing this video. Impact quartz is the sparkles in rocks hit by force normally found at impact sites they have no connection to metals in stone from my understanding of material science(one year of community college). It is a well know thing that heat ruins magnets that are not permanent so I would think it would be rare to find metal that was struck that held a magnetic field beyond that of the metallic mass of the metal(as all ferromagnetic metal has a field even when its not aligned its they major way stop lights see the big hunk of steel that is your cars engine block).
