Iron's invisible pullers
Magnets is the plural of magnet—objects that produce magnetic fields and attract iron, steel, and certain other metals.
Magnets can be natural (lodestone) or manufactured.
Figuratively, anything that draws people or things acts as a magnet: The beach is a magnet for tourists.
Fridge magnets hold notes and photos to refrigerator doors.
