So, an all aluminum chain then?

Apparently the chains started when he was a bouncer. Sometimes people would lose them, while getting kicked out. He would wear them, so that had to come and ask him politely for them. His collection built when they were either too scared, or too egotistical to ask for them back.

IIRC Mr T stopped wearing his gold chains because he came to feel that they were tone deaf.

The best part about Mr. T's gold necklaces is that he got the idea from working a bouncer. The man became a literal living mannequin, holding onto people's gold chains like some kind of ass-kicking coat check.

it mustve been ferrous material, because gold isnt super magnetic. like steel or iron.

Well, TIL. There goes my hopes of showing up to the MRI room with a giant gold necklace

yeah what annoyed me was the Lady asking to just turn it off like you can just turn it off. i know she is desperate to undo her and her husband's stupidity but the article framing those quotes like the tech was incompetent is bad journalism.
