The magnet COULDN'T of made the plane crash:

1: If the magnet is so powerful to pull a plane out of a sky, it would've complete crippled all the hatches on the island

2: Planes are made out of aluminium, except maybe some tools and the engines, but the engines were still running when the plane crashed, they would've just torn of if so.

3: The plane wouldn't of split, it would've just gone straight into the hatch, unless the magnet stopped just before it hit the island, but still, it wouldnt of split.

Also, in 'The Pearl' orientation it sais (when edited) 'Once you have finished your three weeks, make your way to the Pabla.....'

This is the pabla ferry bay (were Micheal left from). Another point is the 4 toed Statue, this shows people were on the Island before Dharma and the Others, as there was a 4 toed god in greek mythology... etc.

1 more thing is the anomly message that came up on the portugese' pc... same prompt as the Swan/Pearl... but.. wasn't using an Apple II, various background things show different OS', like Linux, Unix, Mac and Windows, and then the prompt apple II, and I think some MS-Dos, although their computer appears to be windows... so maybe its a mixture of different OS'..

it's a TV show 🙂 not real life...

Yea, but the shows to technical to include a huge flaw like that (the plane crashing when aluminum). The rest are just points

cry Everyone hates me

it's probably just a mistake or something they thoight people would just skim over and not care much about it...

it makes for in ainteresting story...

It's a show that is possible in reality.

Magnets don't attract aluminum - therefore I side with you rickyduck. Saying that it's only a t.v show doesn't prove Rickyduck wrong, it just kinda weakens ur arguement.

Whats all fake? If the shows fake, why pay for something like that when they can just get a simple windows operating system?Or mac?

yea when a show is based on the real world, they should make it accurate.

It wasnt the magnet. When the guy was with Desmont he explain that everytime the numbers are punched and energy(built up energy) gets released, when Desmond didnt punched the numbers the first time the built up of energy was too much that when he did punched the number the energy released was so much that it hit the plane and made it crash.

But we know it was a magnet as its been implied by many of the characters many times, and it attracted everything metal to it when the heiroglyphics came up.

It attracted everything inside the hatch. For the magnet to have crashed the plane it needed to be a huge magnet to reach the plane's altitude, It was a magnet not a freaking tracktor beam.

the point is, if it was strong enough to pull the plane down, it would have collapsed the hatch on its self

Exactly....If it could pull down a plane from 35,000 ft. in minutes, why wouldn't the hatch be destroyed before that?

Thats what I said at first 😐 I mean, desmond would've been killed, and the plane would've just crumpled in on top of the losties.

The island is a mystery. Mayve the plane crashing is just one of those mysterious things

I agree

maybe...just maybe...its not really a magnet...its not like the losties are magnet experts...
