Warning, the video shows him putting them in at the beginning. Not just showing how cool it hooks on. Shows a decent amount of blood and incision.

Skip to 1:28 if you just want to see the finished product.

It looks a little flimsy to me. I am not sure you could cross the street quickly without the ipod coming off...

Pretty cool. I've always thought it would be cool to do something like this for glasses, but never had the guts.

He probably does lots of explaining on TSA scanners at airports.

If he goes through THz scanners and holds his hands parallel to the sides of the scanner they probably wouldn't show up at all.

What keeps the magnets from falling out? Are they connected to bone?

This is called a transdermal implant. It basically has a broader bottom than it has on the sides, kind of like a cufflink. The skin heals around it over time, and it becomes a part of you eventually (assuming its not rejected by your body)
