If you’re a comic book, superhero movie or fan of mythology, you’ll be all familiar with Thor and his huge tool. In Norse mythology (and The Avengers, of course) Thor’s hammer – aka ‘The Mjölnir’ – is his greatest weapon. And better yet? Only he can operate it.

The unliftable hammer. A funny AND scientific prank!
