A 61-year-old man who suffered critical injuries after being pulled into an MRI machine while wearing a metal chain has died, police said Friday.

The incident occurred Wednesday afternoon at a medical building in Westbury, New York, according to the Nassau County Police Department.

Officers responded to Nassau Open MRI following a 911 call and were informed that the man "entered an unauthorized Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) room while the scan was in progress," the police department said in a statement.

We invented magic force fields that attract certain metals. The power was always in the universe; we just had to discover and learn how to harness it. We can see inside your mind with it. But if you don't do exactly as I say, it can kill you. So, are you absolutely sure you don't have anything, and I mean anything, that is metal?
