The distance from the magnet to the outside of there skin would be diminished too much for them to get stuck. Also a dime sized magnet does not have the magnetic power to stick a human. They may be hard to pull off a surface but if you put the magnet say on a piece of leather similar to skin and them pull up on the leather you'll see it's much easier to remove it.

There are different strengths of magnets. For most magnets, I'd say "no". However, there are some very, very strong magnets called neodymium magnets that might work if the person was pretty thin.
Here's a picture of one of these magnets holding paper clips - through a person's hand.

I don't think so. A magnet that size would barely hold a piece of paper to metal, much less a human.

It wouldn't attach, you would just get ten cents worth of Sh..T
That's about what this question is worth
