Only the worthy can wield Thor's mighty hammer... well, maybe the worthy and a guy with a little electronic know-how can do it.

A YouTube video creator, Sufficiently Advanced, assembled not the Avengers, but one of their weapons - Thor's hammer Mjolnir, MTV reported.

Worthiness isn't needed to pick up the copy of the movie prop, just the correct fingerprint.

He used a battery-powered electromagnet and a fingerprint scanner that makes it nearly impossible to pick up the hammer unless your fingerprint has been programmed into the device.

The inventor took Mjolnir to Venice Beach to see if people are up to the challenge.

Allen posted the video to YouTube, which has about 4 million views in three days.
