Wow, thank you. In a brief search, I found this strange and interesting article from 1983, regarding experiments conducted at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory of the University of California: https://www.nytimes.com/1983/02/22/science/do-enormous-magnets-affect-the-human-body.html https://www.nytimes.com/1983/02/22/science/do-enormous-magne... TL;DR - there were detectable effects on heart function, eye function and possibly sense of direction. The effects were deemed safe at the levels studied. Here is the study the article appears to be about (on page 86, as numbered in the scan): https://inis.iaea.org/collection/NCLCollectionStore/_Public/17/068/17068452.pdf https://inis.iaea.org/collection/NCLCollectionStore/_Public/... Going by its closing remarks, it appears this was an active field of research at the time.
