Floppy discs are more resilient than that. I’ve seen videos with people testing it. It took a more powerful magnet to corrupt the data on it. I should test it myself. I don’t think a magnet like that would do any harm.

Age might be a factor though. Recently I found a stash of floppies from around 2002, which were definitely good when they were stored. I think I was eventually able to extract only about 20% of the data.
