Neodymium magnets are lightweight, but they still have a repulsive force-to-weight ratio of 300-to-1 300-to-1 300-to-1kilogram) magnet could repel at least 300 pounds (136 kilograms) of force.
That's much more than earlier estimates, which postulated no more than about 1350 kilograms of force, and nearly 10 times more powerful than the bite of modern alligators, some of the strongest snappers alive.
The discs at the L4-5 and L5-S1 levels bear high loads [ 21, 22] and in the seated position intradiscal pressure has shown increases to 100 kilograms of force (kgf), from 70 kgf in the standing position [ 23].
Grip strength was assessed using a Jamar hand-held dynamometer (Sammons Preston, Inc, Bolingbrook, IL) with strength recorded as the mean in kilograms of force of 3 consecutive trials using the dominant hand.
