If you are truly looking for the "real" explanation, and not just trolling; the answer may be found in the ideomotor effect. Holding the fork under tension, and at the ready position, will easily twist the bark off the fork when the ideomotor response fires and the tip of the fork moves violently down towards the ground. There is nothing electric or magnetic or electronic happening to cause this action - and if you think there is, you have been fooled by an illusion.
