Interesting, although I don't like how that line about rock hanging is worded. Magnetism seems like the wrong explanation. To me it looks like a simple equal-and-opposite reaction situation: they pull on the earth, it pulls on them, and if they can't move the earth (or don't pull hard enough to move it), then it pulls them up. Think of it like pulling on a rope. If you pull on one rock with enough force, the rock moves, but if you pull on a really large rock, it pulls you closer instead.
