Plymouth man Jack Devaney - who has previously made pencil cases out of dead rats and turned a dead rabbit into a toaster - has now emerged with another bizarre creation.

As reported by the Plymouth Herald, he said: ''I had a bunch of strong, old magnets lying around so I tried them on my ear lobe. When I'd managed to get them off it, and the pain had stopped.

''I tried them again, but this time with some fabric to see if they were strong enough to hold and if the fabric stopped the crushing sensation.

''Luckily it was, so then I stuffed the halves of the mouse, sewn them up with the magnets inside and took the photo.

''The beauty of the earrings is if someone doesn't want to wear them, or they just don't have £18 to spare, they can buy half of one and use it as a fridge magnet!''
