Another specimen mentioned is a brass bar, measuring 2 inches by 2 inches by 12 inches, which was gifted to journalist Michael McArdle for documentation. Additional samples include a stainless steel bar of similar dimensions and an aluminum piece machined open to expose its inner structure, revealing the internal texture and material composition. These samples, sold on eBay years ago, represent a trove of unexplained phenomena.
Some samples, such as the "jelly metal," appear discolored and shape-shifted upon breaking, indicating a strange internal structure or reaction process. The narrative suggests a fascination with fracturing metals and examining their internal states, perhaps to identify anomalies or new material phenomena.
