Yeah someone here mentioned it, the comedy aspect is this experiment costs like 14 pence to make lol cause its just tin foil on the walls.

still makes me wonder, "no no no magnetic monopoles don't exist etc etc" in safety reports then bam an experiment to try to find them, erm ook.

No, the argument is they either don't exist or aren't dangerous.
